SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers around the validity of online IQ tests, specifically referencing a test found at http://free.ultimaiq.net/numerus_basic.htm. Participants express skepticism about the meaningfulness of these tests, with one user highlighting the inconsistency in their scores, ranging from 110 to 165. The conversation emphasizes the subjective nature of determining logical answers in such tests, suggesting that without a clear definition of logic, the results are arbitrary. Ultimately, the consensus is that online IQ tests do not provide reliable assessments of intelligence.

That is why I did not call it an IQ test in the title.:smile:
 
I'll do this test when you manage to define when an answer is more logical than another answer. As long as you can't do that, I just fill in "0" everywhere, which is an answer for which fits some pattern in every of the 20 problems. But that apparently gets me an IQ below 120 (which is probably about right).

I've taken some of these IQ tests before because friends were just poking fun . . . once I got less than 110 but then another time (on a different test), I got 165 :oldlaugh:
