of getting your IQ score, even children from the age of 9 and above can take
this test.
If you would like to know your IQ this computerized test will calculate your
score with reasonable accuracy. Don’t begin until you’re sure you won’t be
interrupted, you will have 30 minutes, don’t spend too long on any one
question. If you can’t answer a question, go on to the next and return to the
unanswered one later. Thirty minutes is generally more than enough time to
finish the test and to review your answers. Make a check mark on the line with
the correct answer.
For the score of this test, e-mail me the answers (include your age),
example:
1) yes
2) no
3) 100

to you.

I thought, she, the one you replied to, was joking. For example
the answers weren't given so how does she know if she guessed
correctly or not?

Well, they were both said in jest....
The facts: I am in mensa, but what I (or at least, what I meant to imply)
implied by that was that since I have taken the test before the qns posted
would not have been foreign to me, therefore it is understandable that I can
answer (or try to at least) most of the qns.
Well, I only looked at the first 10 qns, to tell the truth, and didn't
actually attempt them, so go fig if I was joking or not:)
cheers

Actually I was trying to take the test for mensa but then gave up
because some $50 they were asking for.... What do you do in mensa
anyways?

I went through the list and had the same feeling you did....
