Let's boast about our IQ

We would need some sort of research to actually prove that. Also to my awareness online IQ tests tend to give one higher IQ score than they actually have to make them feel better.

Yeah professional ones usually cost a bit of money. The online ones are kind of funny though.

In what way are they funny?

I think the free mensa online test is the most reliable one at least.
Other ones would give me scores ranging from 125 to 160! iq, and I really do not think I am einstein level lol

Though mensaโ€™s official test scored me with a more realistic 110

Because of how weird some of the answers you can get. I went on this random iq test and it gave me an iq of 70.. then I retook it and got a 120. Then I retook it again and got 80, like what?

Thatโ€™s RNG in action probably.

I have never taken an IQ test, but I do wonder if there would be questions accounting for the concept of stochasticity (randomness)?

I mean, the IQ of a person changes during their lifetime, but that doesnโ€™t mean you want 2 tests taken one after another to have different scoresโ€ฆ

Same here, I got a 111 on a paid online version

So maybe the bias towards the higher end isnโ€™t that large afterallโ€ฆ

Maybe I could compile everyoneโ€™s IQ in this thread and come up with (an albeit, very flawed) number of the average IQ of thrive players

I feel like weโ€™d need more figures then

Plus, what if some people on purpose wanted to get the highest IQ number they could, rather than getting a โ€œaccurate IQ numberโ€? It could definitely skew the results.

I mean, the average iq in my country is about 98, so on the high end youโ€™d be 3 points below average, which is assuming the iq test is accurate

And the test is probably somewhat inaccurate even if paid forโ€ฆ
