So you think you are clever? Try this...

This is an IQ test based on Raven's Progressive Matrices. Basically, it is 60 puzzles, with multiple choice answers to fill the blank in each puzzle, and is a good measure of general intelligence, basically, not what you know, but how well you can learn! You have 40 minutes to complete it, but I am sure there are those who can do it in 25 minutes or less.

They do say that it is good to exercise your brain!

Have a go, it is free. There are tests like this where you get to the end and charge you for your scores!

Ensure on the page on the right select your country and age, email if you want (not needed) and scroll down to where it says 'Begin Test Now'

I have done this test sober, now I need to do it drunk and compare the scores:snicker:

It has a history of the last few tests on one of the pages - and gives age score and nationality

I didn't see any 130 score:lmao:

maybe it is slow to update - but I see someone who is 36 from Ireland got 125!

96 is very close to average - so that just makes you normal:thumbsup:

125, above average is good enough for me.. he he... That got my mind off the stress for a bit, thanks m8..

The worrying part is that I thought I got them all right???

I found it quite relaxing because you have to concentrate for a while - so it kind of removes everything else for that time!

Anyway 125 is a good score - only one in 20.9 would get that score or higher, so you are in the top 5%!

I just got 4 more points after a 2 litre bottle of cider than I did sober!

:dribble:..Test Must be faulty, I scored 147 :iamwithstupid:

I take it you are 59 years old from the UK as shows in the scores recent history page?

I thought I wouldn't disclose my results until someone scored higher! So I have to now - I scored 137, but I would love to know where you found the solutions:snicker:, there are probably 2 that I got wrong!:red:

I am now getting the impression that this IQ test adjusts scores for higher age groups, as well as lower age groups (children), because it is a fact (apparently!) that you lose your marbles as you get older, so it is adjusting the quotient, and possibly also taking into account the 'Flynn effect' - which is the apparent phenomenon that each generation is better at IQ tests than the last:beat_brick:

Well that is my excuse anyway!!! I will try it later as a 60 year old to see what it says!
