Yet I’m able to travel abroad independently. Do you think the psychologist who did the IQ assessment got it wrong? He went though all my school reports and in them it was quite apparent that I have always had intellectual disabilities. Can I third grader manage airports and catch flights alone?

It’s not easy but your doing better than that. STill. If it comes down to you getting help off the goverment then there’s no drama. Honestly. You deserve to get some kindnes if you can’t work for a living and thus do what others do…
You do well in your world. That is important.

If you disagree with the assessment maybe you can request a new one?
I wouldn’t worry too much about it. It’s just a number. It doesn’t define who you are.
You are @bobbilly !

You seem more intelligent than that to me. The way you wrote this post is far above a third grader’s ability. Get it checked out, if you can. Someone is selling you short. It could be some kind of learning disability, and that you can work on. I think 69 is way low for you.

It’s good to be independent. I live alone and my nearest family is 500 miles away. Recently I got over my desire to have someone care for me. I shared it and it left. I need to go to an ENT about my throat, something I need to do. But I’ve been psychotic lately and haven’t been able. I have a doctor’s appointment next month that will be easy to get to, I know what bus to catch, how to get there. I’m going to ask for the second booster. But I need to take better care of myself and things are in the way. I need to clean my apartment but my back goes out when I try because I’m so sedentary.
When I was in the hospital I was given an IQ test and I know I did poorly on it because my mind was befuddled by my illness. I think I am a smart person.

I took a Wechsler III Adult Intelligence Test. Done by a psychologist trained in doing IQ tests. They give the same tests to Death Row inmates in America. I have the mental ability of a 9 year old. I do think they got that wrong.
I took the quick test. Those questions are hard so I gave up.
IQ tests are faulty, no mention of EQ in IQ tests so I am must be smarter? logic doesn’t solve everything.

Even if they are its had a baring on my life ever since I was know to MH services.
Maybe you have trouble concentrating/sticking to the questions. It lowers your score. But you don’t really have that low of an IQ in reality?
It’s 14.4 seconds per question, That requires a good processing speed. Many struggle with that.
i got 95th percentile (17/25) although I skipped few questions.
@firemonkey I took that genius test you posted. The full quiz.
I landed in the 97th percentile which equates to an IQ of 131
After you pay for your results it shows you the mistakes you made. In my defence its 9:20am, I just woke up, I’m still a little groggy and I made a few dumb mistakes, lol. But still a pretty good score.
That test was harder than others I’ve written, the timing puts on the pressure!

I’ve never heard of Wonderlic before, what is that test trying to achieve?
The charts in those two links you posted don’t equate to each other exactly…
According to that test you posted it said my results put me in the 97th percentile which equates to an IQ of 131.
I’m not sure what my Wonderlic score would be. According to the first link you posted it would be 36.5 but according to the second link it is 39.
Are either of the scores considered any good?
The official test is used by businesses when it comes to recruiting staff. It was also used by those coaching/running NFL teams, but some have now stopped using it.
IMO this is the best online ‘Wonderlic’.
There’s an average score per job here
Your score is a good score. Potential Mensa member level.

I think that among schizophrenics their IQ’s can vary over time. Sometimes my mind gets clouded, and I have trouble doing basic things. Other times my mind is pretty clear.
