Should IQ include some consideration of age as well? I'm still a teen and I haven't found any tests that actually take that into account yet...

I always try and calibrate on these online IQ tests. I take it first by reading the question, and then choosing a mostly random answer. I then take it again to the best of my ability.

Random answers: 112

Answering everything to best of ability: 133

Unless there is a huge disparity between the random and best ability, the IQ test, in my opinion is generally worthless. Double so for being online. Yes my test is flawed, but so are online IQ tests. I shouldn't be able to get a 112 (above average int) by selecting random answers.

Wow.. IQ is probably one of those things that people have the highest opinion of themselves about.

Probably the top three.. among morality and social skills.

I'm also sure that the more IQ tests you take, the better you will score each time.

If someone asks me my IQ, I always say I don't know it! That usually stops the conversation dead on its tracks.

A very high IQ is like a magnet for all sorts of problems! It's like a snowball that grows into an avalanche.

135, but I didn't answer the last four. On my last formal IQ test (people in special education programs in my state had to take these every 3 years for funding reasons) I scored 147. The IQ score is usually given in two parts I believe called verbal and performance. This is the performance part and oddly I usually scored slightly above average on that part of way above average (over 160 once) on the verbal part. I used to not like math, I was really good at it, but didn't like it. I took college algebra at the local CC in 8th grade and since That was all I needed for my intended major at the time, I stopped there. A year and a half ago I went back to school for something practical (computer science) I loved calculus and now I am majoring in math. So to make a long story short, I think thats why I scored higher than I would have expected on this type of IQ test, or maybe it is just an innacurate online test.
