    Cool Iq Test
Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around an online IQ test that utilizes flash movies, prompting mixed reactions from participants regarding its accuracy and design. Many users reported high scores, with some achieving scores like 140, 164, and even 172, but expressed skepticism about the test's validity, suggesting it may prioritize speed over accuracy. The timer was frequently mentioned as a source of distraction, impacting concentration and potentially skewing results. Participants noted the test's unique approach compared to other IQ tests, with some appreciating its challenge while others criticized its lack of age input and the readability of instructions. There were humorous exchanges about the nature of intelligence and the perceived randomness of scoring, with some users joking about their scores and the implications of being labeled "average" or "dumb." Overall, while the test was seen as entertaining, many participants concluded that it is not a reliable measure of IQ.

I selected random answers all the way through: 65

The timer is distracting and shouldn't be shown.

I did the same and got 66!

Am I even alive?

Clicking randomly I scored 65, clicking intuitively I scored 120. When I actually tried to work out the answers, I scored 39! Am I even conscious? I usually average about 140 in these tests. I really need to improve my spatial awareness...ouch!

Got a 99. Then, I'm a sophmore in HS and couldn't do half the math.

I took my sweet time, hitting the time button whenever necessary. Score came out to 167. Took it again without the time extensions, and the score was 198. LOL, that's 31 time extensions! But, slow and steady wins the race...right?

I got a 164. The clock question I "JUST" understood. For some reason I was thinking the hour hand, and not the seconds hand. So I was wondering where pi²/6 was at for an answer. I just chose 60pi until I realized now how dumb I am, haha.
