How do you define smart. For example lets say we have a Doctor with a double PhD and yet they can barely function on a computer. Or how about the man who dropped out of high school at a young age, lives in a trailer park and works a part time job, but if you stick anything in front of him, anything at all, he can fix it. Is he considered smart or not smart? Or are we just basing this off of something like the ASVAB or the Rhianna Iq test? |

I say chaps. What say you on Finklestiens notions of transhumance emotions and habits undertaken in the near; future due to economic disparity, and resource dependency even given the dwindling supply. A bold novel indeed! Yet I can't quite seem to agree with the overall outcome given todays social movements which he could not have predicted!
What say you!

IQ is 136. I don't feel that smart most of the time. The world is quite adept at reminding us how dumb we can be It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

I don't really trust IQ tests. I would consider a high or low result for myself equally meaningless but defending or arguing what any given result meant on the internet would be work I don't want.
People think in different ways and people don't perform consistently, or don't multitask well, or simply don't 'think' to apply their intelligence... intelligently. People also have different goals and values, so something that seems like the 'intelligent' thing to do may not coincide with what someone wants or how they want to live or die.
The only testing I ever took seriously for my intelligence was the ASFAB and some other associated test (?) for the military. I took the practice which they said was harder than the real thing. Afterwards they said I could do anything I wanted except work on nukes. I do not know the reasoning behind that. It may have been psychological or maybe I failed some certain area, but I didn't care to ask at the time.
I consider myself smart, and I know for a fact that I have a level of eloquence that allows me to communicate my ideas and understand the ideas of others far better than many people who may be smarter than me but cannot express it.
That is enough for me. *Charges Twilight fans with Ka-bar* -Surfin's PlunderBunny LIIIIIIIIIIINNEEEEE PIIIEEEECCCCEEE!!!!!!! -Taedrin Using relativity to irrational numbers is smart -rodyas I no longer believe we landed on the moon. -Atticus Fynch

Clearly you've never sipped aged brandy, and worn a smoking jacket whilst sitting in a fine leather chair at a gentlemen club. You can read your CNN.com with the rest of the rif raf outside!

An IQ is an exceptional measurement system, highly accurate in telling people how good they are at taking IQ tests. Ishtar Starfire: As a pure caldari pilot i feel that with the deployment of the new tier 3 battlecruisers you have given an unfair advantage to everyone except caldari pilots. an example would be like giving a fat kid a whole cake while the skinny kid has to watch and get nothing.

I did happen to notice the 'trick' in your title, but.... for your amusement.
I pulled 165 on an american based IQ test, full of american stuff and tings. I pulled a 142 on the British MENSA test.

Particularly when a lot of IQ questions involve math and I suck at math, you give me a pen to draw with however or ask me about politics.

I studied IQ tests at Uni. As an experinment my and a few others got around 100 volunteers to practice IQ tests for a week. First measure means was around 107. Slightly above the average of the population which is 100. Not unexpected considering most of these volunteers where university students.
After a week we called them back and did the tests again. The means average this time was around 120. We also did comparisons between students that studied the arts and those who did sciences and mathamatics. Those who studied physics and mathamatics came out well on top. Does this mean that those who study history or english are less inteligent? Not really. It just shows that the test are weighted towards a particular way of thinking
Under proper test conditions IQ tests can be a good indicator of a individuals "inteligence". However, like anything the more you practice the better you'll be at it and the more familiar you are with the type of problem solving IQ tests throw at you the better you'll do at them. Obviously there are a lot of environmental and lifestyle factors at play here and I don't think it's possible to get a true measure of an individuals inteligence.
There is even a debate to exactly what inteligence is or if inteligence is made up of different types of skills. For example you can have physical and emotional inteligence. Having a high IQ score may make you feel good about yourself particularly the silly ones that you find on the internet, but keep in mind you are not seeing the full picture and that there are factors that can skew the results in your favour. In the end IQ tests just show you how good you are at IQ tests
sorry about the poor grammar. I suck at English ;) |
