- If the #1 blitz chess player scores 102 then you know the test is dogshit. Hello Everyone. Sorry for inconvenience but i had to change channel, new clips will be uploaded on:
/ @nostradamus2508
I'm 99% certain that this guy is 130+ but he just forgot the time and also forgot he was taking a test and not playing bullet chess
,, or the iq test is a fraud as I suspected since I was little
It's all about the time brother, only if you solve it in the proper amount of time, then are you someone smart. Hikaru cannot be 130+ if he takes all the time he needs, that is not how it works
if you watch the whole video, he was talking to chat about random stuff most of the time
@@mrtrey7865 does he not talk with chat and play chess at the same time regularly? His level of chess has lots of calculation. IQ tests determine the raw score of someones mental capabilities. Hikaru did not practice this test like he does for chess and if he did then I am sure he would have gotten higher. But hey you are not supposed to do that since that is unfair and would give you an unfair advantage. However you could argue his iq ranges from 102-120
He's over 150 for sure
It's funny how the average IQ is 100 but every time the internet talks about it, the average IQ of the people in the comment section is supposedly 135+ What a joke.

while a lot of people might be lying, ppl who actually do get a high score are more likely to seek out these videos and brag about their high scores in comments, after all top 1 percent is still a huge number of people.
I actually have an iq of 145

I doubt that this is his actual I.Q. but if it is then that goes to show how much of a hard worker he actually is, his extra-ordinary ability to concentrate and his unrivaled discipline.
Doing it under pressure on stream for sure has an effect. He should do like 3 different tests in his own time to get an idea of his actual iq. It is obviously gonna be higher than average.
His IQ is definitely higher lmao he was clearly just pressing random buttons here.
People don't seem to understand that IQ tests are not a full measure of human intelligence.
Experts have long debated how effective IQ tests are at deriving a quantification of the full spectrum of human intelligence.
Chess doesn't require high IQ
@@Ism0Lait3la No it won't. He never talks like an intelligent person. There's nothing original or creative in his games. He studied, played and memorised a lot about chess and that's why he's good. It's a fact.
0% chance that’s his actual IQ. Anyone who does that “takes takes takes” bullcrap undoubtedly has cognitive ability far higher than 102 is capable of.
It’s been proven chess grandmasters have the same IQ as normal people contrary to popular belief. And their spatial abilities doesn’t translate outside of chess. I can link you the studies if you won’t take my word for it or you can search them yourself.
Lulz, he's not even trying
he didn't have any time at this point
Yes because the whole point of doing an IQ test is to chillout and have some fun :) also i will leave a quote stated by me in my previous comment.
Here is how you can know someone's IQ i will quote one of my statements from a previous comment.
"OFFICIAL IQ tests fall under privacy law, which means unless you are journalist or you see the IQ test report on an OFFICIAL aka nationally approved outlet you "won't" be able to trust any IQ test report.
".
In short the easiest way for you to estimate someone's IQ is by calling MESA or any other official institution like MESA and ask them if a x individual is a member
Or you can break the law and bribe a journalist, HR, detective, lawyer etc to get that information for you but chances of You getting into serious trouble are Very High :)
MESA doesn't care about your opinions MESA is a publicly and privately funded instution by the government/taxes and donations.
@D4ed it’s not... you didn’t qualify either. Stop lying, you’re a sciolist.
@@Andrew-xc8xe i was always wondering what is even the point of mensa? do u guys know?
@Onur Kaan GENÇ i know but why, it seems like tho whole point is ahahah guys i can see patterns im a genius lets brag about it and make a corporation! Like what?
"If the #1 blitz chess player scores 102 then you know the test is dogshit" this made me laughed so much!
@D4ed Read again, I am quoting someone else. I actually understand IQ well. And by the way, you are wrong because there is a correlation between IQ and chess ability, it just happened to be somewhat weak ( about .3 for most studies)
@D4ed "Being a chess granmaster has no correlation with yout iq" This could be the dumbest quote of all time
@D4ed Utterly irrelevant, I clearly didn't say that there's a 1:1 correlation. And I'd love for you to find me a chess grandmaster that has an IQ of 80 :)
@D4ed In other words, less intelligent people are going to have a harder time doing tasks that are cognitively demanding. It's quite apparent that there's a correlation, just going by what you've just said. Also, I find it absolutely laughable how you say that my request doesn't make sense. You asked me to find a GM with an IQ of 195 or above. You're saying it makes sense to try to find someone that's 6 SD above the mean, but it doesn't make to find a person that ONE SD below the mean? Going by your own logic, it should be very easy to find a GM with an IQ of 80. However, I think that you're just trying to defend yourself, even when knowing that you're wrong. You would be right in saying that there's no DIRECT correlation, and that someone less cognitively gifted could make up for it with hard work. It's frustrating to talk to you, because you're arguing against something that agrees with both intuition and the overwhelming scientific consensus.
@D4ed Hopefully this is a well-done troll, if not, you're completely and utterly moronic. Not only that, but you're extremely weak-minded. I couldn't have less respect for you.
It's far from highly inconceivable that the best chess player in the world would have an average IQ. True, IQ does determine the rate of pattern absorption, but on the other hand, other factors also come into play such as affinity and enthusiasm and in chess primarily the length of exposure to these patterns far outweighs any factor dependent on IQ. A 110 IQ grandmaster would trounce a150 IQ novice any time of the day.
He is not the best chess player in the world and at no time was. He’s among the best best of his generation.
or you have a blind fate in those ravens matrix fraud tests
it is highly inconceivable considering how important of a role iq is in chess. You are right that other factors are generally more important, but most people who become among the worlds best in anything that involves thinking usually have around 130iq. This is a constant we can see anywhere in historys great achievers. So yes some of the worlds best will have an average iq, but the chance of Hikaru being one of those few is what is shocking and inconceivable
I can confirm that this is true
@@dosebuss Iq high and you se ten steps in one second but you miss all the crossroads, therefore very many high iq people are stupid.
People saying he was trolling and had no time. The test is timed, he obviously took too long on the rest of the questions so had no time left for the last few. If he used all the time he was trying to do well
isn't the timing part of what your brain has to take in to account though? Its not like the test is discredited because he timed it wrong, that's part of the test.
He's taking an IQ test in front of a life are which isn't really fair
@@AlanGonzalez-ev6ur the test itself isnt a legit test to begin with tho
I took this test recently and also ran out of time and got a 102, which put me at the 55th percentile. I thought that was a little strange considering through out my life it's been clear that I'm much smarter than most people I come across.
I sent it to my mom (who's clearly nowhere near as smart as me) and she got a 112. I was thinking, what the hell happened?
I realized I was overthinking the questions and misunderstood the basic framework of them. I retook the test and got a 128, putting me in the 97th percentile.
I'm assuming he did something like what I did. Basically overcomplicated the questions.
@@abstractdaddy1384 Repeating the test after learning the patterns is an inaccurate result. Your first score was probaly more accurate. You will move through it faster and then answer more the second time which will obviously give you a better score.

Man I find it amusing that Hikaru Nakamura is at the top of the chessworld and when one sees him here he acts as unseriously as Bruce Willis in his Die Hard movies and still manages to save the day. If only we all could do like that. I wonder if he could be worldchampion if he was as deadserious as Kasparov when preparing against Karpov in their worldchampionshipmatches.
It all depends on one's internal psychology. Some people only produce their best work when dead serious, some only when they're relaxed and goofing around.
He definitely has put lot of effort in what he has become. He has said that many times himself. Then there is nature, what we focus on, what we don't. U think he really haven't tried as much as he could, pushed himself to limits, he definitely would have
the IQ test flagged him
The test was rigged by El Magneto
This isn’t a good environment for him to take an iq test. No focus, a camera in front of you, no preparation at all, thousands of people watching you. Some takeaway though would be that talent!=iq, but there is definitely a relationship. Also, regarding talent, it is usually the case that talented people are less likely to try or accept new intellectual challenges because of the expectation that they will always win at their own game no matter what.
i mean sure those factors might have influenced his score somehow, but i don't think it would make a big difference. IQ test is very limited in measuring intellignece. it only measures one aspect of intelligence. intelligence has many many domains and the IQ test only measures one.
There is supposed to be no preparation lol
If he hadn't been focusing he would've gotten wayy lower than 102
he was flagged by the test guys he literally doesnt care

@@cynamonstudio Its not just that they are difficult. Some have either more than one possible solution or no solution at all lol
highly doubt this is his actual IQ lol. Hikaru fits every criteria of genius there is, from the child prodigy to massive working memory. Goes to show that IQ tests can be improved with iteration. If he'd just studied for it, or taken even a brief primer on how most of these work, we would be seeing a higher number
He literally was just clicking, if he could not get the answer in 3 seconds he would just guess, also skipped some questions. If he just slowed down he'd be 125+ definitely.
@@JokerYT306if he slowed down he would be even lower since he didn’t have time in the end. All the studies proves that GMs have Averege intelligence but people insist they must be smarter of the averege person while there is literally no proof of that being true.
This comment section sure does have a lot of IQ experts... xD
I don't know how people think this is sufficient proof for IQ. This, for one, isn't even a certified IQ test - a real IQ test would have a range of questions not just shape patterning questions. Also, he's doing this on a fucking stream with pressure of a live audience and spontaneity of request. To take his real IQ we have to get a certified mensa test and test him under correct conditions. Furthermore, he's undeniably highly intelligent. Grandmaster at age 15 with that being the youngest Grandmaster in American history at that time. Hes number one in the world in blitz chess which requires rapid calculation and awareness of chess. This guy is fucking smart and a 102 IQ is not an accurate representation of this guys monumental intelligence.
This is just a short demo test. If you want an accurate estimate of your IQ you have to do the test in person, and I have no doubts that Hikaru would score a lot higher if he was to do a full one, with more time. However decent IQ tests always consist of shapes and pattern recognition. If you were to have language puzzles or other kinds of questions there would be way too many variables in terms of education and background. This is why pattern recognition is superior in determining an accurate estimate of cognitive skills without as much of an educational and sosioeconic bias.
@@Dolmiomannen yeah commonly in IQ tests they test for knowledge based things which doesn't constitute raw intelligence at all. So yeah, pattern based questions are more reliable
@@DavidBrent2003 Being good at chess does not constitute high intelligence.

Oh no lol. Nonetheless, seems as if that fluid iq is somewhat meaningless in chess when you become familiar with certain patterns and learning about various techniques to solve them.

He was getting shit over this so he deleted it. But to get an actual picture of his iq he should do 3 different tests without the pressure of being on stream. It's gonna be a very different result, my guessd be >125

People saying this could be his iq and just be as good as he's at chess by training, you are delusional, or you haven't played chess long enough. Anyone with long enough trajectory in chess knows how incredibly hard it's to get to be a gm, let alone a world class player.
You don’t understand IQ. You are delusional lol look up studies there is no correlation in chess skill and IQ unless you have less than 80 (mental deficiency) you can become a GM if you study 8+ hours a day like they do.

Chess is lot of practice. 10, 15, 20 years of practice to become a GM. Those patterns get ingrained in you. You know so many openings and counters.

yeah i think theres been some studies showing that better chess players outperform average ppl in chess-related things but not in other things that might appear in an iq test
So, you think an average person can become the youngest National master in American history, youngest IM and GM at the time? You think an average person can play 20 boards blindfolded with ease and crush GMs? No they can't even with decades of practice. He definitely has a higher iq than that
@@ym276 He's gifted, but IQ is an average of many different intellectual skills. He's got an exceptionally great memory and pattern recognition skills. I think he's gifted in the skill sets for chess, but his IQ is probably average overall.

Worth noting that this tests what might be called "figural IQ" which one study has shown to have no correlation with chess skill whatsoever - on the other hand, verbal and mathematical IQ do have large correlations with chess skill, so perhaps Hikaru has a high verbal and/or mathematical IQ

first of all, this is only one aspect of IQ, Matrix reasoning. His full-scale IQ could be much higher, since he is a chess gm he probably has a very high visual spacial intelligence.
Anyone have the actual answers to the questions with reasoning?
Problem is you can get good at IQ tests like you can get good at chess. The domain of IQ questions doesn't necessarily help you with survival skills for example much how like advanced calculus doesn't necessarily mean you'll be using it daily - and under normal circumstances unlikely. Infact it is useful to not waste mental resources on information that doesn't help you achieve your goals. Your real IQ is determined how well you lived your life up until this point.
That test is inaccurate. For example, some of the questions ask about prime numbers so if you're familiar with them you can answer those questions faster and have more time for the harder questions. Right away, when someone has an unfair advantage, they'll get a higher score: making the test useless.
Edit: also, some of these questions ask about patterns. BUT, some of the greatest questions in life and in numbers have no patterns. Example: pi. So, it just doesn't really test how smart you are. Especially when you start to ask questions about things that have no pattern. Example: advanced quantum physics and abstract mathematics.

People are confusing iq with fsiq
It's even worse than that. They're confusing the narrow ability of inductive reasoning with FSIQ. There is much more to fluid intelligence than inductive reasoning and there is much more to _g_ than fluid reasoning. Mensa NO might be a good test of inductive reasoning but it is not close to an FSIQ assessment.
@@johnrivers9931 Best comment thread
@johnrivers9931 wait can you answer these questions
@@Sarahbop Whether or not I can solve these problems is irrelevant. I just wanted to provide some more information about IQ tests to anyone who might be interested.
I'd like to clarify a few things: tests of matrix reasoning don't completely not measure general intelligence (g), they just don't measure it well. One might expect a matrix reasoning test like Mensa NO to have a correlation coefficient of around r = .7 with general intelligence. This is a meh correlation, especially when we see that (good) tests of mathematical reasoning and vocabulary have coefficients in the .8+ range.
Composite scores derived from a few tests will oftentimes produce a higher correlation with g than scores on any single one of the tests. For example, vocabulary + math would likely be a better measure of g than either vocabulary or math. Adding matrix reasoning to the mix would likely increase the composite's validity. If you keep adding subtests, you end up with a test that has a correlation coefficient of .9+ with g. A correlation this high is on the level of most professional FSIQ tests.
With that being said, if you want to take an actual decent IQ test for free, I recommend you go to cognitivemetrics dot co and take the AGCT. It was an actual IQ test used by the US army during WWII and it has a correlation of .92 or so with g.

Großmeister haben durchschnittlich einen IQ von 150, 102 wäre fast unmöglich für ihn. Dieser IQ-Test scheint mir relativ komisch, ich konnte keine Frage beantworten.
He's Normal human 102 is average IQ
The test is not "dogshit", to be strong and good at chess you only need memory and concentration plus a lot of training (the elite of chess have like 10, 20 or 30 years of chess playing behind them), so they have a good memory, but since memory is correlated to IQ with only 0.60 it means you can have a big memory but an average IQ, Raven Matrix measure Logical abilities only, that's it.
But for the defense of Hikaru, i would say he could have got 105 or 110 to the IQ test with less pressure, and if he saw he had only 25 min to answer the 35 questions, even he was slow to answer the question at the start, in the middle he throwed 2 or 3 bad answer because he said "i dont have time", everyone doesnt have time and still we can make good score, the fact is about taking the time to give good answer to the first 25 questions then its fine for the last 10, anyway if he redo it in good condition i guess he can get a max of 110 IQ which is good, but since the first test give the real estimation of his IQ he might really have 102 (but don't forget the standard deviation of 15 which mean he could have less or more than that), its a little more than average so its OK, i mean 102 IQ is fine, even Kasparov was only 135 IQ and you dont need a huge IQ to play chess and be good at it.
he was a child prodigy
@@Haitch12341 everyone can be a Child prodigy when he trains a lot in a specific domain very young, we can see it with race car, chess, football, etc...
@@vince4213 False, its absolutly false, most of the online player are cheating with engines like komodo or stockfish nowadays, i play since only 1 little year and i am already 1500 elo without any effort, this game is just about memory and concentration, nothing more, you just become better to the game, you dont get smarter, or just 5 IQ point, not even more.
@@quantumlife8426 "chess is just about memory and concentration." lol what about calculation, pattern recognition, creativity? ONLY memory and concentration??
@D4ed You mean someone who echoes your thoughts word for word?
most people in comment section are arguing on if iq is relevant in playing chess. Being a neurosurgeon intern i say yess! high iq is relevant in chess a nd most game if not all games but more so in chess. The average iq requirement to play chess at the top most level is 130 which is a little short of genius which is actually 140. For other sports like football and most of the remaining games its actually 110 to play like a pro of cause this coupled with alot of training to engrain memory in your muscle. This is similar with chess also ...take for example two persons with a rating of 130. They both learn the laws of the game and the basic moves but 1st player trains harder than the 2nd player. Its obvious the 1st player would win because he is accustomed to the mental gruelling of the game as opposed to player number 2, also he is less likely to blunder miss a winning move or even play a bad move also while he is more likely to spot the winning move , the best moves , and spot mistakes in players number 2's development of pieces. Iq is a really complicated analogy in regards to sports that whole books are written just to explain this. Chess is known to improve players iq after playing the game for long enough and seeing the logic behind certain moves and patterns,, but ifeel like it cant develop your iq beyond the threshold 130 for obvious reasons ie; at 130 you probably already know the logic behind every move and you've analysed almost all possible kinds of play in the game. Now to finish; what separates most players and distributes the grand master title over a long range of Iqs "110 - 190" is actually the devotion different players have to the game. On issue of memory id say the higher the memory the higher the iq because memory is simply based on pattern recognition so its pretty stupid to say being good at chess is simply having a good memory. Of cause it helps ( a lot in fact) but it goes hand in hand with IQ.
Are you literally not seeing the video?

Hello, is there any video where he it is recorded the entire test?
İ think the answer is first one,you take intersection and turn it bottom.
im a genius
I mean IQ isn't a definitive test of intelligence because intelligence isn't even well defined. The mensa IQ test is basically just pattern recognition and the ability to take in new information
Also IQ was not designed to measure intelligence. It was designed to help educators and psychologists determine if children have a cognitive disabilities that would make them benefit from special special education. And Binet (the man who originally invented the test) advised against using his test to do anything else. And at this point the test is even kind of outdated for it's original purpose, because the results can be kind of volatile.
@Ben Robinson ?
@I love you but i mean kind of. This is going to seem like a humble brag, but my MENSA was 154 and I’m fucking stupid dude
@I love you but oh I have debilitating ADHD and struggle to retain information. The IQ test was relatively easy because its about quickly learning patterns and then discarding information
if it's pattern recogntion and ability to take in new infromation, then people who have taken the test before will definitely show test-effects of experience. if a person takes the IQ test 100 times (even if they're always randomized and different, they'll still have many similarities) then the person will definitely score better. the more you take the test, the better you get until you can't get any better
Well atleast we know iq is far from the greatest predictor of chess ability and even intellgence. I have 20 iq higher than hikaru but without a shadow of a doubt i am of an inferior intellect.
Just because someone is a GM or good at chess doesn't make them a genius. It's true that chess does increase intelligence, but not too much. I'd say Hikaru is about 110 IQ.
Yeah
WTFFFFFFF I M 14 AND I SCORED 128 IN THE SAME TEST 🤣 HIKARU IS WAY SMARTER THIS WEBSITE IS NOT TRUE IG LMAO
Same 102 iq i got
I don't think he realises that Time plays a factor
@D4ed So it does but it doesn't?
Actually he thinks he will lose the match to Mensa if time is over
Oh my I got the same iQ score as him
How come he scored this low in this test....I myself scored 138 and I am rated 2300 in chess...
Being good at chess doesn't mean you will ace an IQ test. And vice versa.
He didn’t take the test properly and it wasn’t a real test. There’s a fair amount of research on IQ and chess, the correlation gets weaker on older and more experienced players, but it’s still unlikely he’d score just 102 given his chess skill.
Thanks for the replies
@@Russianboyz95 Being good at chess doesn't mean you're intelligent. However, scoring high on an IQ test does actually mean that you are intelligent. That's the difference.
@@RodrigoR9 It's not unlikely. The myth that chess players are intelligent has been busted by research for a long time now. Besides, he never showed any signs of high intelligence at all. The real signs of high intelligence are being good at languages, mathematics and programming. Those have a correlation >= 0.9.
He’s trying to fail on purpose ?
twent
Am i just dumb? I had to get IQ tested when I was younger multiple times and floated between high 12X and low 13X. This first question makes 0 sense. At least reading left to right I cant really discern a pattern to either of the first 2 rows. And then for the third row just intuitively it doesn’t feel like theres enough information to deduce a pattern. When I actually took my real IQ tests this was only a feeling I experienced for the last question (they ramp up in difficulty). Am Inmissing something? Is it supposed to be about filling in the columbs? or is the whole 3x3 grid one sequence.
also side note but the logic / pattern continuation portion of the test is untimed.
For the first one, reading left to right you can take the intersection of the shapes and then flip across the line
@@michaelkietzman6210 ahhhhhhhh thanks lol

At least.
If I can do this, he can solve millions of them at once
Cause he's a chess GM
Lol imagine he's trolling and trying to convince us that he's average just like everyone else Kappa we all know you're 200 IQ Hikaru OMEGALUL
Nah, Hikaru is mentally gifted in his ability to play chess, but intellectually he is probably slightly above average. The clearest indication is behaviour higher IQ people tend to be more reserved which you can see in the likes of Carlsen, Caruana, So, and Anish.
lol i beat him i got 132.

Hikaru actually does have an average IQ, it's part of the reason why he's so successfull because he can relate intellectually with his viewers. Most other top GM's like Magnus have crazy high IQ's so it's harder to relate.
@abc123 Yeah, I can just look at this in an abstract manner.
@abc123 He doesn't, you're almost entirely focusing on his Chess ability which is strongly linked to childhood development.
@abc123 It's correlated with memory and pattern recognition, the pattern recognition is developed with a favourtism toward Chess during childhood whilst the brain is still developing. This is why if you start learning chess after your brain development has completed (even if you are 150+ IQ) it's literally impossible to become a GM. The only example of someone becoming a top Chess player that started after the age of 20 I can find is Chigorin, but that was in the 1800's
@abc123 Hikaru certainly has a great memory, and your second point about how much they trained is correct, but it's also how they are trained. Hikaru had a key advantage over almost everyone else in that he grew up living in the same house as his step father, who is arguably the most successful US childrens chess coach .
@abc123 Hikaru played chess for 30 years. If I played chess for 30 years, I probably would have been just as good or even better. It doesn't mean anything. Chess is about practice and memorising patterns. Intelligence is about recognising patterns on the spot.
To be fair this seems random for viewers. A proper test must be done by a psychologist using official tests and the subject tested three times with the mean giving their score. I would guess after three tests he would probably get in a groove an get quickly acquainted and would more likely be 115-20. Which is well above average to be fair.
I scored 133 in the first attempt but I sxck at chess
I also did crap on this test, but I scored well on Mensa Denmark and Mensa Hungary
How many do you have?
@@ed9908 how many what?
what did you get on all three tests out of curiosity? i've been very insecure about my mensa norway result since doing the test. I scored 97. I scored 115 on mensa Denmark and 114 on a digit span test so I'm hoping my IQ is closer to those two results. It would make more sense to me based on my life experience I'd say. I haven't taken the Hungary test.
@serengeti4027 98 Norway 120 Hungary, 121 Finland, 123 Denmark. These tests might not be accurate since my nonverbal IQ on the WAIS is just over 100.
@@noah7477 you did the wais? before or after the spatial tests? did you pay for it? I'm considering doing it as well. that's so bizarre that your scores are so all over the place like that.

Hahahahahahahaha THE proof that IQ Tests are complete baloney.
well consider that this iq test was way easier than Mensa iq test, then he could potentially score less than 100 in real iq test.

Bro being a chess champion doesnot require einestine level iq it's just perseverance and hardwork
I scored 118 on the exact same test and im 1000 Blitz go figure.
IQ test is very limited in measuring intellignece. it only measures one aspect of intelligence. intelligence has many many domains and the IQ test only measures one. For example, you can take a memory test to see your memory span. some people will be able to memorize 7 items, some memory geniuses will be able to memorize 14 items. but this doesn't make them less intelligent overall per se because intelligence has many domains and memory is just one of them

@@jerrygraves6531 That argument is false because he live streams everyday. He was in his comfort zone because it's not like he was streaming for the first time.
