Find Out an Approximation of Your IQ in 15 Minutes!

I was hoping for higher, but 129 borderline above average/gifted =\ The test stopped just as I was about to answer question 30 boo. Had no clue how to answer 29. Totally misinterpreted one of the analogy ones. Didn't have my mind open enough. Oh well. Like any test, I'm sure this is slated in a certain way, and it's just a quick 15 minute analysis. Nothing thorough by any means. They mention you can only take it once per PC/IP address.

Your age adjusted IQ score is 129 and the average score for all test takers is 100.

Your Grade ** Above Average **

Well done! Your score was above average and within two standard deviations of the mean score (top 85 to 97.73% of the population) Typically, people with scores in this range can see logic in their surroundings and perform very well academically. You like to conceptualize ideas and gather your own information which means that you have the brains to go far. You should be able to handle all academic challenges and if you think of intelligence as an ability to adapt adequately to new situations then you are heading in the right direction.

Standard Deviation: 15

The bell curve (also called a "normal curve" or "normal distribution") is a graph that shows approximately how much of the population falls into each IQ range. In theory, if we tested everyone in the world with a traditional IQ test, most people would score in the "Average" range. A smaller number would score moderately below average and moderately above average. Very high and very low scores are rare.

The scores and percentiles above apply to tests that have a standard deviation of 15 points. The Stanford Binet Fourth Edition (Binet FE) has a standard deviation of 16 and the Wechsler scales (such as the WPPSI-R, the WISC-III, and the WAIS-III) have a standard deviation of 15. Therefore, for different scales the percentages may vary.
