    The biggest issue in online IQ tests i see in theyr froudness, they seem like free untill you complete the test lasting several minutes but then being told i have to pay for reslut to be actually shown to me is utter extortion.

    It's one thing to do well on a test. It's an entirely different thing to do well in real life.

    I regularly get high 140s in online IQ tests. Got a few perfect scores. Never scored anything below 130. I think most online tests do inflate scores. But even though they aren't totally precise, they aren't totally meaningless neither. If you consistently do well in these online tests, your real IQ probably still plots closer to the far right side of distribution curve.

    If your'e intelligent, you'll just steer clear of online IQ tests.

    The whole point of it is that it increases your actual IQ regardless of the questions you got wrong. By showing you have a high IQ, this will make you feel more happier and generous, and therefore you will be more likely to donate or subscribe to the website because of your abnormally high results. That’s business for you...

    I have an IQ of 80, but I still think I will get older.

    I’ve taken about 6 different tests and the lowest I scored was 110 and the highest was 150. Usually scoring around 135. I don’t believe these online tests are accurate in that they have different standard deviations and they usually rely on one portion of intellectual capacity. If you want real IQ, take a standardized test administered by a qualified IQ test administrator.

    When I was in high school they gave me a range iq. They told my mom I was between 125 and 135. It made sense then how I didn’t study and received mostly A’s accept in chemistry which I hated. I probably would have done well id I’d had an amiable teacher but she dishes out something I wasn’t prepared for, reality. IQ isn’t everything. I’m a lowly caregiver. So, maybe they were talking about my emotional IQ. I graduated with honors from college. I also didn’t try there when I tested out of their English and math courses I had my ego stroked. Smh. I didn’t ever get a job in my field because although my IQ and emotional IQ were above normal, my social IQ (being interviewed) was not my strong suit. You could even say I was stunted there. I couldn’t talk to people and I don’t have much charisma. I’m learning. And now several people like me in my community. But being so far from my degree in forensic accounting, I’d rather not try for a job in that field. I’m a mother now. I’d much rather have fun with my children than make a huge wage.

    I've done about 5 online iq tests and most were within 10-20 points of each other. I think that the testing system used is mostly accurate, although I also believe that the numbers are shot high, as I thought of myself less intelligent than most the scores I received.

    If you take an online iq test and expect it to be accurate or for you to gain anything from it drop the score it gives you by 50 pts

    The only real online IQ test is Stanford-Binet which was the first person to develop it and it is generally seen as a very accurate test, the most accurate are ones that you get from psychologists or paid ones provided by the army i believe.
