I haven’t taken one except one online (which I don’t think was a legit one), I wouldn’t want to take one as I’m pretty sure the results would be depressing.

I took one online from a company that tells you what career you would be suited too and it costs money

I took one and it compared your IQ to celebrities, I don’t think it was legit, I scored 125

I did a test, but my disabilities (as compared to earlier functioning) were so depressing, that I refused to get the score. In some areas I was fine. In others I couldnt do anything anymore. Especially memory tasks.

It’s high enough. A lot higher now that I’m working hard on recovery. I will say that while I credit Invega with saving me from psychosis, it did make me slower and apathetic which made me appear dumber.

I noticed a huge improvement when I switched to Aristada.

I will say that I’m not stupid and if it is any indication, I quit school in 9th grade, so I only had an 8th grade education, yet I got my GED by passing the qualification test, which means I didn’t have to take classes. I then went on to have a good freelance writing career and wrote a novel BEFORE I was accepted unto a 2 year degree program to get my bachelor’s of science in childhood education.

And today I’m a librarian without needing to take the courses.

You may have gone down in points, but adult tests are different than child tests. You also have a more functional intelligence for life skills and problem solving.

The real iq tests was whether you were willing to pay money for an iq test :crazy_face:

I dont think I will do good on IQ tests. I dont like them. Then I need to find a good free one.

High enough to know there’s a myriad of things I know sod all about. High enough to know that I’m rather useless at a lot of things.

14

I don’t know what mine is. It’s probably not great. I did solve the Einstein riddle a while back. I have that I guess.

15

I don’t consider IQ tests to be valid. I was told that I have “very poor problem-solving skills,” but I’m a programmer. They consider me to be 'below average intelligence requiring substantial support", which I disagree with.

16

I estimate my IQ to be around 110 to 115. Just slightly above average. That’s what I typically get on those dumb online tests at least.

17

I have no idea. I test well and consider myself reasonably intelligent, so I think I would do alright. My situation is similar to @anon4362788 in regards to dropping out of 9th grade, getting a GED, and going on to college. I don’t get to be a librarian, though.
