What is your guys’ IQ?

[jr331199]

I don't know mine, and I'm not sure if IQ is the best measure of intelligence level but I'm curious. What is your IQ? I heard that suicidal people tend to have higher IQs but I'm only going off of those unreliable internet articles and not credible studies lol!

I've heard this as well. They say highly intelligent people tend to be more suicidal in nature. I did try to calculate my IQ once but the device said error. I'm not sure if that was because I was too smart or too dumb.

No idea. I wash and dress myself as well as cooking, eating without dribbling and look after my partner and my old dog. I guess I'm doing okay within my limitations.

My latest IQ test was from two psychologists in January or Fabuary 2020 over the course of I think 3-4 hours. Those tests with cube and triangle sorting, sentence coloration, and others. I got a near perfect in short term memory and slightly above average in everything else but it totaled to an IQ of 117, which I really think was bumped from that short term memory test and realistically I'm probably in the normal range. I forgot what test exactly it was.

I don't thinking IQ really matters in determining someone's overall intelligence rather it's how efficient the brain works in certain tasks. I'm not suicidal due to how I see the world as a despairing form of existence, I'm suicidal due to sexual abuse before 10 and mental healthcare failing and traumatizing me even more (treated for depression when it should be trauma related or something similar to PTSD). You could possibly correlate IQ with failing to properly corroborate with the mental health system but I also have aspergers so there's a lot of other factors in play rather than people with high IQ being more suicidal that should be counted for.

I've no idea. In 8th grade I was put into a class for children with high IQs, but we weren't told what ours were. Every time I try to take an IQ test online, I get bored and think of the millions of better ways I could use my time.

Definitely IQ tests aren't the best way to measure intelligence as there are many types of intelligence and the questions on them are usually math or picture pattern related. I have done free ones sometimes and it will say I am around 140 or more than it but won't give a specific number. I imagine these aren't the most reliable and accurate thing tho, maybe even lies about it I don't know.

[Griever]

My IQ test was a few years ago, but back then it was around 110

 

[StupidCat]

Based on online tests it's around 135-140

 

[moya117]

when i was in middle school, 100, i didn't take it again so idk, maybe a lot dumber than back then

 

[Dark Moon]

I only ever did an online test and I got close to 120, I don't know if those online tests are valid or not.

 

[Pathetic and Sad]

I remember it being 98 when I took an online one a few years ago. Dunno how reliable it is tho.

 

[day]

a formal iq test out of my first year in college revealed i had a 165.

 

[bleeding_heart_show]

I am not sure if I have ever been formally tested (I assume I have been as part of special education), but I believe myself to be <80 despite scoring 102 on a test I took several months ago.

 

[milkteacrown]

I don't believe in IQ as a measure of intelligence. However, mine is 137.

 

[Thekla]

Damn, you guys are all geniuses, apparently. I've never taken one, but I suspect it's below 90.

 

[Geodude77]

The highest I've ever gotten on an IQ test was 135 (test was Mensa) and the lowest was 112 (also Mensa)

 

[Lazy]

Mine is 127 and from my expirience going to a school for "gifted" kids (mandatory IQ test), pretty much 2/3 of the people I'm still in contact with are or have been suicidal.

I don't know mine, and I'm not sure if IQ is the best measure of intelligence level but I'm curious. What is your IQ? I heard that suicidal people tend to have higher IQs but I'm only going off of those unreliable internet articles and not credible studies lol!

I did an online one (so probably not accurate) and it came to 112, but it was timed so i skipped most of the mathematical ones and focused on ones i knew i had a better chance of answering in the time so that also probably doesnt help accuracy lol

 

[SteamaHorns]

Probably around average. I've taken way too many online tests under improper conditions for me to be able to gain a proper idea of what my IQ is through them, but I've personally known people with higher and lower levels of IQ and have noticed differences between us to come to the conclusion that I'm probably just average.

 

[-nobodyknows-]

No idea

 

[oneeyed]

Probably in the average range but I think what OP is referring to is similar to what I read some time ago. It's not that the higher your IQ the more suicidal you tend to be it's more of people with higher intelligent have a tendency to not understand (ironically) or able to control their emotions and well as less intelligent people. So with that in mind, if your emotional state is in flux, it would probably lead to anxiety disorders and depression which are common with suicidal ideation.
It's like your brain is giving itself a wedgie for being a nerd.

When i was tested in high school i was told it was around 160-165... but i completely sure that is no longer the case..way to many party prescriptions and alcohol abuse in my later years .. so.e time its clear and i can vwt my head together and work on my are of study which was theoretical physics and highe end math but these days and being in my mid 40s im lucky if a can find my pissin glasses that tend to be either on my face already or ive found them in the fridge one or twice so.. one thing i know and completely agree with... is that those with higher IQs tend to have low EQ...

 

[itsoverforme303]

Zero lmao

 

[matchalavendercake]

i rlly never knew and still don't whatsoever- but knowing i've been on special education ever since like 1st grade or smthn, i think my iq is under average. i never finished high school tho bcs i wished to drop out, so i forcefully stopped doing anything school related starting on 2021
