Spatial IQ test(long-208 questions)

What number question was that?

I’m not sure, I closed it. I’m sorry!

I don’t mean to be blowing you off :see_no_evil: I just keep taking apart the sentence and trying to get there to no avail :smile_cat: it makes me all spluttery and indignant!

What does it take to complete that girl. If you were to redraw that girl as accurate as you can, you would not use the other leg. So you dont need it to complete her. I will get you to understand this. It’s my mission now.

Am i the only one who liked this test? I can understand how all the questions could relate to spatial reasoning. It’s perfectly normal not to understand alot of these, but they for sure not impossible and bogus. I dont know about you guys, but i like the idea of being confused so i can think outside the box and find new ways of thinking.

Nope I refuse. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: It’s not consistent with any of the rest of that series, either - the house, the place setting, the man, the circle, the star.

There’s also no way you will convince me that you should pack cans of soup on top of a loaf of bread. I did fine on the test, but some of the answers were improperly coded.

Did you get the house one right? It’s not supposed to be consistent! It’s supposed to catch you off guard!

If you can explain how ā€œcompleteā€ and ā€œfinishā€ mean two distinctly different things that are measured on a test of spatial iq as opposed to one of linguistic pedantry, I’ll accept it. Or how, if I were going to ā€œmakeā€ the man, I would use an item that doesn’t comprise him, but if I were going to ā€œcompleteā€ the woman, I would use an item that already does comprise her, for that matter. But I bet you can’t do that :smile_cat:

For that matter, why I would go northwest from any spot in Brazil to get to England when I had the option of going northeast? Or how I would extrapolate the position of a ball relative to a table when the ball doesn’t appear in the picture at all?

It’s not about ā€œcompleteā€ or ā€œmakeā€ or ā€œfinishā€. It’s about the difference between ā€œtheā€ and ā€œaā€. That specific girl has no leg. If I were to remake THAT girl i would not use that leg!

Your not allowed to do better than me and still not get that question! I refuse to let this go!

This reminds me of ā€œThe Idiotestā€ on the Game Show channel. They do sound like trick questions and I’m not planning on doing 208 of them.

Nope! That doesn’t hold up either.

The word ā€œtheā€ is used consistently.

I am definitely not complaining because my score was not high enough. I’m complaining because the test was not proofread adequately.

Btw, @firemonkey, the questions were 81-86.

I definitely learned that I know nothing about boats :smile_cat:

Now it’s the object and shape. A person with one leg is done. A doll with one leg is incomplete. The last one is just the top of the star. I expected you to get the last one. I dont kniw whats up with you guys. It all makes sence to me.

No, I honestly can’t go there with you. You’re defending a linguistic test, not a spatial one. It was either badly written or badly proofed. A spatial test is not a wordplay test.

There are enough other clear errors on the test that it is most likely just badly coded.

The answer to 81 doesn’t make sense. 82 is debatable. It depends whether they were looking for cutlery setting. It’s definitely ambiguous.

Whether that negates the whole test I don’t know. My end score was in the range of a previous average for similar tests(70-71) . I wonder whether one, possibly two, incorrectly scored questions would make much of a difference to the overall score. My guess is it might result in the IQ being wrong by 1-2 points.

It would be interesting to know if people were surprised(higher or lower than expected) by the IQ they got. I wasn’t.

Well, everyone got the same test, and the scoring is based on how you did compared to people in a similar age bracket to you, as opposed to how you did on an absolute basis. I imagine that it’s the same handicap applied to everyone with just a small margin of fluctuation.

I completed her with a hand.

By the end of the first section they switch up the order of the answers. This whole test is full of trick questions.

I seriously take issue with the cherry pie question, and I say this as someone who earned his journeyman chef’s ticket. Dumb. Also, bread on the bottom of the bag? Wrong. There were at least five questions where I narrowed it down to the best two answers and guessed. Wouldn’t consider this as very scientific. I think it favours people who enjoy geography trivia and chemistry (I know what happens when you mix turpentine and bleach from reading the MSDS at work).

Got the leg thing wrong like everyone else – it expected an arm when a leg was missing? Also, chose a door to complete the house when a tree was expected? HUH?

I scored higher than expected. Figured I’d be around 110.

Given that those with ASD often have spatial skills as a strength I was not surprised it was high. I predicted it would be.
