Online IQ tests are usually trying to sell you 'more detailed results',
so everyone scores well. (who would pay to be told how dumb they are?)
I tested this by asking an old roommate to do one.
background info:
-This girl did not know that human females have eggs.
(she thought I was fucking with her when I tried to explain ovulation)
-She could not name the Vice President.
-She thought that people traveling in trucks with double wheels had to because they were handicapped and could not change a tire if it went flat.
-When she applied for a cashier job, the application had a math question that resulted in a negative number (cash short in drawer). . she did not understad the concept of negative numbers and thought it was a "trick question" and 'solved' it by turning the
minus sign into a
plus sign and doing that equation. ( I dont know if she got the addition right )
Still, this girl scored as above average.
So .. go to MENSA if you actually care about this shit.
But honestly all an IQ score really shows is how good you are at taking IQ tests.
