    Yeah, I have done the online tests and average in the 140s +/- 10. I don't put much faith in high IQ though. I have seen plenty of people with genius level IQs %$#$ their lives away because they lack common sense. Pretty sad.

    167 is screamin' high. So is 178. I think that by the numbers 132 is considered genius (top 2%) and over 150 is top 1%. My buddy (a fellow pharmacist geek dude) and I were discussing this the other day. He is a 154.

    As a basis of comparison, Einstein was a 160. But his ability to think outside the box was what really differenciated him from his peers.

    I only got 3....blah! And I had to keep redoing it...I did it like 3 more times and got 4 on the second try...then I could only get 3 after that. Then I read down and saw the answer... My brain is NOT male...but the way the had the words spaced really threw me. I have/had dyslexia and the spacing and that really threw me off. Now spin the words in circles really fast and I can read them.....but that way...I had trouble! Cool little party trick I learned..dyslexics can take a book, magazine etc and read from it while they spin it 360 degrees. I like to do that when I want to freak people out.

    Six ;) I think its more of a basic observation test though, not an IQ test. Totally different. This one is a lot like the post not too long ago with the monkey walking through the basketball passes.
    Interesting enough, a lot of us here that took that test have almost the same "score" as on this test. How's that for an observation. :cheesy:

    personally i think being too smart limits you after a point. it took me tell college to learn actually how to try at something, which is a important lesson for later in life. Im considered pretty bright by my friends and people i know, i think that learning that lesson so late in life made it that much harder because you get into a pattern. any way i feel bad for the people that are really smart and will never go on to use that ability to its potential. the "smartest guy" in the world has a iq of 900 something, you know what he does nope its not rocket science, hes a bartender also hes kinda arrogant from the interview i saw.
