123 with a misclick. Real IQ tests are culturally unbiased. They're composed of simple shapes and test logic. I don't see how language knowledge or memory have anything to do with intelligence.

I'm questioning whether the national average really is 100. Something tells me it should be higher.

While you did fine on this test, you obviously don't understand how IQ scores work.

100 is the average. The other scores are based off of that in a bell curve format. Your score depends on how far you deviate from the average. Pretty simple. Even if the world gets get 10x smarter, 100 would still be the average IQ.

Yes I am retarded, thank you for pointing that out. I did an IQ test a few years ago and got a 148 because the sample had a higher standard deviation. For some reason I remembered that the average for that test was 120. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
