I took an Iq test on the internet a while back and I wanted to see what would happen if you completely bombed it and I got a 21 and it said You are mentaly retarded you should not even be able to read this.

Yeh..I agree...internet I Q tests are not worth the paper they are printed on.
I was reading a science magazine a few years ago, ( FOCUS ), and there was a challenge published in it that was compiled by MENSA. I tried it and was shocked to find that I did quite well.
As I was unsure of the validity of this test I enquired with MENSA who confirmed that they HAD compiled the home IQ test and that if I completed it in the time allowed and achieved a certain level they would offer a full test at my nearest university.
Well...( to cut a long story short - as they say ), I did one of the tests and sent it in. Each of these tests only gave a result as a colour level, with the lowest being Bronze, going up through Silver, Gold and Platinum at the top.
I received a Platinum award for the 1996 test !
I was pleased of course but I let it lie thinking it was a bit too easy.
I was curious when I saw the same test come up again in 1997 so I did it again and sent it in.
I AGAIN received a PLATINUM award ?????? with an invitation to go to my nearby university for the fully controlled test.
I did and I received an Intelligence Quotient score of 148.
As I left school without even a leaving certificate and a sureness that I was a thick as two short planks this was a massive shock to me to find that I was in the top percentage of the population of Britain with that score.
The Moral of the tale....Don't believe what they say at school about your intelligence. Make up your own mind after getting a second opinion !

"Your Intellectual Type is Word Warrior. This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary. Even without trying you're able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. And that's just a small part of what we know about you from your test results."
Complex my ass. Yeah, real hard to figure out that a glove is to a hand as a hat is to a head.

Your Intellectual Type is Visionary Philosopher. This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns.
I think the thing to bear in mind here is that we owe it to ourselves not to get too bogged down in the details about whether its a valid test or not.
The vitally important thing is that i got 142 and posted the screen cap to prove it, making me smarter than all you liars and slobbering dimwits. **** yeah! Kiss my genius ass you retards!
nope..you're actually a joke. You got the exact comment about the visionary philosopher and all, just as me. THUS..me having less than you by 7pts only counts for probably a couple of questions i answered wrong, which might as well be those english sayings questions. and considering english is my second language, and YOUR first...we can rule it's value to my iq out.
