When I joined the Army in 1976 (I know, too long ago) they gave me a big test. I didn't even know it was an IQ test. Had lots of geometry problems and logic puzzles. So next week the Sgt said my IQ was 130 and I should get into officer training. Well I had such a lone wolf life I had no idea what he was talking about. (I was suicidal at the time) I'm not that military type really, just wanted a job. But your IQ goes up as you age. So how come I've been a laborer all my life? I ask myself. Life is peculiar isn't it?

I haven't taken an IQ test yet. I had the standard ones at school, but I never really felt motivated to give it an earnest go. Nonetheless, I think intuition and instinct are crucial aspects of intelligence. They are difficult to measure, but are critical nonetheless. We all intuit and act on instinct, and sometimes the results are fabulous, sometimes not so much.

Life is peculiar isn't it? Because hi IQ and philosophy equals danger to society...best to apply it to...well it doesn't matter...its a meat grinder put their even if your intelligent.... An art is the best answer.... I new guys with 130-150 IQ in carpentry. It wasn't a test to measure success, but mental illness.

Probably more important in some respects considering IQ is about measuring known problems and variables....not unknowns and most of life is unknown. All we know is a small drop of water in an ocean.

I don't what to say, in my nation, I got selected for prestigious universities twice, one for Engineering higher diploma masters and other for MBA.
And then, got through Edinburgh, but failed in three subjects.
Besides, scored well in high school maths and physics, and even English is distinction.
However, this is only the analytical aspect of my side, I am not sure about geometrical stuff, and other such things.
Besides, I am a person who only seek to specialize in one subject,as I hate working LONG HOURS.

I was tested twice when I was younger and scored 200 both times. Not sure how much it has fallen since. Anyway, above some level I think it just makes one depressed.

More important is the ratio between IQ and EQ

Life is peculiar isn't it? In Order to Make a Geek Meek, College Is for Teenagers Who Are Afraid to Grow UpIn other words, it's the unrealistic question, "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?" But the reality-based question is, "If you're so smart, why haven't you made the rich richer?" Like me, you probably had a subconscious suspicion that using your mental ability would only get you exploited.

IQ tests are rubbish. It is jews who wanted to bring the best migrants to develop america, after second world war, so they created hatred amongst europeans and destroyed families through such propaganda.
Most of these IQ tests were developed pre world war 2 era, if I am not wrong.
India is last nation to get affected by the so called jewish modernization.

Traditional IQ test is misleading. it considers only arithmetic and language aspects. it overlooks a whole lot of skills which we use in our daily life and which need intelligence. the smartness involved in Sports and music and arts is underestimated. For me to be intelligent is to use the shortest way the fulfillment of your goals. Of course i am not talking about indecent means.

Gas Castes InsteadI'm surprised that anti-semitism has spread to India, where there are practically no Jews. But I've also heard it from a native of Korea. Dissing IQ when your own is so high is the kind of self-hatred that led to the Unabomber wanting to destroy what High IQs built. With that in mind, it is more evidence for a hypothesis that the Jews invented the wheel when they originated in Sumeria. My impression is that they may have started out not as an ethnicity, but like the nerd group on The Big Bang Theory. Because of a similar exploitation to the greatest larceny in history, corporate patents, they left there and left useful inventing to the heathen for the next 5,000 years.
