lisamoeResults from an intelligence quiz at www.similarminds.com I actually just went looking for a good MBTI and/or Enneagram test to recommend to a friend, but stopped to take this along the way. They have lots of good tests there.
This test is at http://similarminds.com/int-verbal.html but check out some of their other tests and quizzes if you like that kind of thing.
Verbal Intelligence Test
Sir Francis Galton, the cousin of Charles Darwin, first popularized the notion of measurable intelligence in the late 1800s. Charles Spearman later discovered that all mental abilities tend to correlate together when statistically analyzed. He called this G. Modern researchers tend to agree that there are two kinds of intelligence, crystallized intelligence (learned knowledge) and fluid intelligence (abstract processing ability). Verbal tests tend to measure crystallized intelligence more. While fluid intelligence peaks between the ages of 18-21, dropping after that, crystallized intelligence can increase as you get older and does not degrade (usually) until fairly late in life. According to a number of studies, the correlation between vocabulary and general iq is around .8 (a very high correlation).
Congratulations, you obtained a very high score. I am researching intelligence and personality so I would greatly appreciate if you would use the comment form below to answer the following questions.
What was your childhood IQ measured at? SAT score? GRE score?
What is your career or what career do you plan on pursuing?
How has your intelligence affected your life?
Did you have any problems with any of the questions on this test, was it challenging, easy?
Include your email if you are open to possibly getting some follow up questions from me (your email will be kept private). If you would rather think about the questions and answer later, submit your answers via the contact link.
Your overall percentile is 94% which means you scored higher than 94% of the people who have taken this test. The internet population tends to be more intelligent so your percentile might be higher if the test taking sample was perfectly random. Keep in mind, taking this test more than once will render your percentile score inaccurate because the percentile scoring assumes these questions were fresh to the test taker.
The point of this test is to challenge you and show you how you compare to other test takers on a set of novel questions. Consequently, the answers need to be kept secret to protect the integrity of the test.
I also took the Visual Pattern Fluid Intelligence Test at http://www.similarminds.com/intdoor.html. The rest of the blah blah is the same as above so I didn't paste it all, just the score.
Your overall percentile is 96% which means you scored higher than 96% of the people who have taken this test.
