Hello all

I have a question ... there is an IQ test application on Facebook
which I took and scored 126 a friend of mine took it and scored
129 ... I know he is pretty much smarter than me
but the difference is that this was not my first IQ test but for him
it was the first test

so what do you think ? do you think that taking more IQ tests made the
difference or do you think the test it self is fake

here is the application http://apps.facebook.com/iqtests/?

please give it a try and give me ur feedback

On Facebook you can look at the scores of your friends who took it.
From playing various social games, I can see the scores of close to
fifty people. The average is around 104, with multiple people scoring
as low as 88. Statistically, it seems about right. They have your age;
the questions vary in difficulty; and having took various other IQ
tests, my IQ comes out about right. This seems like one of the better
online tests for native English speakers, if you take the test only
once and if your IQ is under about 150. (I ain't an expert on this
though.)

I only took the standard one. There is a big difference between 129
and 148.

Yes, took it the same day as well. Al though I guess the standard version contains more language/cultural based questions and the advanced is more of a "g-test".

Actually the average score is around 120 for the advanced level, I thought the advanced stuff was far easier or it was just more g-loaded therefore provided a more accurate estimate of my IQ ;)
