The Classic IQ Test
What's Your IQ?

Congratulations, XXXXX!
Your IQ score is 136

This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Facts Curator. This means you are highly intelligent and have picked up an impressive and unique collection of facts and figures over the years. You've got a remarkable vocabulary and exceptional math skills — which puts you in the same class as brainiacs like Bill Gates. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results.

Oh, come on. No one takes IQ tests seriously - at least outside of MENSA. Have some fun. It's a quick test.

No paper or writing implements!

You scored 140 on Tickle's IQ test. This means that based on your answers, your IQ score is between 130 and 140. Most people's IQs are between 70 and 130.
In fact, 95% of all people have IQs within that range. 68% of people score between 80 and 120. The following chart to your right, shows these percentages and where your IQ score is on that scale.

Your Intellectual Type Is:
Visionary Philosopher Your mind's strengths allow you to think ahead of the game & to imagine or anticipate what should come next in just about any situation. Because you're equally skilled in the numerical and verbal universes of the brain, you can draw from multiple sources of information to come up with great ideas. The timelessness of your vision and the balance between your various skills are what make you a Visionary Philosopher.

In addition to your strengths in math and linguistics, you have a knack for matching and anticipating patterns. These skills and your uncanny ability to detect the underlying blueprint of most of life's situations add to your Visionary Philosopher mind.
Two philosophers who share the same combination of skills you possess are Plato and Benedict Spinoza. Spinoza had insight into how things worked in the world. He could envision a future based on the patterns he saw in life, and used mathematical logic as a structure within which to present his philosophical arguments. With that base he was able to use logic to formulate his theories. Borrowing from his linguistic strengths he wrote eloquent texts and, therefore, was able to bring his philosophical ideas and structure to the rest of the world. His story exemplifies the talents that are present in the Visionary Philosopher intellectual type.

Whatever you decide to do in life, you've got a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a wide variety of ways. You can expand your mind to understand a situation. Your strong balance of math and verbal skills will help you explain things to others. For example, if you were on an archaeological dig and discovered an object, you could probably use your deductive powers to figure out not only what the object was but also how it was used. Given your ability to put things together, you are more than capable of inventing a life plan that is in synch with your perspective on how things were, how they are, and how they might be one day.
Great Jobs For You
Because of the way you process information, these are just some of the many careers in which you could excel:

* Archaeologist
* Detective
* Psychologist
* Sculptor
* Architect
* City planner
* Chief executive


Some of Your Greatest Talents
You've got tons of strengths. It wouldn't surprise us if you:

* Think of the "big picture"
* Can anticipate and predict patterns
* Are good at context clues
* Can see similarities in seemingly disparate things

Porter, you're hip with the success stories

Hey there, go-getter. It's no surprise you're ahead of the game because you've got your eye on the prize. Focused and hardworking, your mind never stops churning and thinking about what could be. That's why you're happiest when you're knee-deep in a research project, a book, or a problem, and you can put in the extra hours and effort to figure it out and learn something new.

But that doesn't mean your nose is always buried in a book. You've got an open mind when it comes to discovering great things, so you're constantly embarking on new adventures and meeting new people. The result? You rarely do the same thing twice. And that's how progress is made.


Wrong one. That was the "Are You Hip" test.

We got the same score but I am compared to some Greek guy who died more than 2300 years ago while you are in the same class as the richest person in the world. What gives?

Porter, your IQ score is 133

The way you think about things makes you a Concrete Thinker. This means your intelligence is grounded in a clear understanding of what is happening around you. In situations where others are confused, things are crystal clear to you. In addition, you have the unusual combination of strong verbal and numerical skills. You are able to solve equations and then use your verbal skills to explain those solutions to others.

It was confused: I suck at math, have zero computer/programming skills, and a memory like a sieve.

This is a perfect example of why IQ tests are shaaaat. But they are fun, and probably do give some insight into one's analytical skills.


I'm just glad I made it into the 5th percentile. Never failed yet on a standardized test! (Actually, I'm going to drink myself to sleep... never been below 97th till today.... boohoo!!! Waaaaahh!!!)

I just love online intelligence tests. Almost everyone I know who has taken one discovers he is a genius. Ive taken a few. The two scores I most remember were 140 IQ and 80IQ. A testament to their accuracy.

But i dont want to be a party pooper. They are fun. You know what else is fun if youre looking for stimulation? Online riddle sites. Its just hard not to check the answer if I can't figure riddles out within the first 5 seconds.

Congratulations George!

You I.Q. is 65.

You are an idiot, and best suited to be the leader of the most powerful country in the world. You are weak-minded and simple with a love of dogs and guns. Things are difficult for you, you are hugely ineffective when speaking publicly, as you have the linguistic skills of a gnat. You have a fear of rejection and will do anything for money and are deathly afraid of not being like your father. You are unable to do math, set your alarm clock, feed your dog or tie shoes, even loafers. You are incapable of having any scandal involving women as they believe you to be a hillbilly, redneck dork.

The only mail I get is from myself or is junk mail, so figured it was worth it.

Shocked Rolling Eyes Very Happy

Obviously, I am a liar, near-genius that I am.
