what's your IQ?

[thx9000]

...If you say you scored 160 on the S-B test I would not believe you.(without proof) Not to say your not intelligent, just that your probably not a genius with 160 score. .009% of people can claim 160, which probably works out to like 10k people in the world. Do you really claim to be one of those 10,000?

The world's population is greater than 1B people (10K is ~.009% of 1B), so this more like a 1 in 550,000 event. So, say the entire state of Vermont...

...The 1% is based on an average of people that score that high. Of all the people that take that IQ test, only 1% of the people get 135 or higher. The link I thought I posted that had that quote must have gotten misplaced. I will repost it.

No...the standard deviation on the S-B is 16, with a mean of 100. So, you hit 98th percentile at 132 (not 99th at 135), I think 1% is somewhere in the low 140's. Keep in mind there are >5.5B people on the planet and 2% of this number is still a very big number.

Well, since everyone on this board is eligible for MENSA and most other High IQ Societies, let's all go over and join at once. We could change the face of MENSA as the greatest band of genius bodybuilders to ever roam the earth.

I
n the library they had a CD once with some IQ tests from Mensa and a time limit on them, i scored about 120 , so i´m probably the only one too stupid for Mensa on the board. i feel so left out now

For those that think that velvett is lying or exaggerating, you have obviously never spoken with her. She is probably the most together person on this board. I promise you she does not need your approval or anyone else's for that matter. She has her faults, just like everyone, but no one will ever accuse her of being a liar.
If she says she scored a 163 then I believe her, and you know what? It doesn't change one damn thing about her. She is still this incredible lady who can make anyone feel like they are special.
