Another IQ test, this time from the International High IQ society, a little more robust than facebook iq tests I guess, membership open to anyone with an IQ above 124.
Their test gave me an IQ of 133, you get 90 seconds per question for a 36 question test, about an hour apparently, but as is my way I did it in about 10 minutes.
Look at the photie to the right, click through to see it bigger if you can't read the labels. So which one is the more economical to purchase, given that they're essentially the same thing?
See, the '£1.53 per Kg' and '97.6p/Kg dr.wt' that's supposed to be there to make these decisions easier, has been hijacked to confuse the consumer.
These cunts make it harder.
I've got a sodding IQ of 140 and even I can't figure it from the information given. Do I really have to pick up the can and find out what the %age fluid is for the three bean salad and then scale it to get accurate comparative numbers?
For fucks sake, both products are own brand, this is entirely within the control of Tesco, they've done it on purpose.
Took another IQ test on Facebook, calling itself the Advanced IQ test. It gave me a score of 148, despite getting nine of the fifteen questions wrong.
This brings my funky average IQ after taking five such tests to an incredible 127. That old 78 score from when I was drunk at uni still bringing down the average.
Hi there all you Chris Gilmour IQ fans, and I know there's one or two of you from all the traffic from google. I just took thing claiming to be the European IQ test. Only twenty minues for this one, but seems easy enough.
An underlying thing about internet IQ tests is that they're mostly taken by people in the developed world who've had a decent education and are computer literate and who know they'll get a good score.

I just took an IQ test on Facebook (Thanks Rowan) and it seems I've got an IQ of 142, which is rather better than last time I took on and got an IQ of 76. It was when I was at uni and both drunk, and in conversation with Milo, I vaguely recall female distractions too.
So that gives me an average of 109, which is a bit more believeable, still better than average, but ought to lower people's expectations of me.
I cannot find new suppliers for all the parts for three products, create a link MRPII database and serial number history database from scratch with no experience of database creation and sit manning a production test at the same time.
For some reason this blog is getting loads of traffic from people looking for stuff on Google about teh Facebook IQ test.
There's 30 questions, and you'retimed for fifteen minutes. I took ten to do it, that's my strategy in these tests, do it as fast as you can. I got 28 out of 30. The two questions I didn't get were one's where I clicked "Don't know" cos I thought they were ambiguous or not enough information was provided.
The first one, as I remember, was where there were four coloured shapes, a circle, a triangle, a square and a hexagon, the colours were something like yellow, green, purple and light blue. Which was the odd one out? I couldn't say, but folk I've spoken to either the circle cos it has no corners, or the blue one cos its colour only has four letters. But I don't think either of these are good enough, what about the number of sides? There's not enough information to pick an odd one out.
The other one I didn't get was where there was a race, asking who came either second or third, I don't remember. You get told who came first and fifth, then the other runners, I'll call them B, C and D, you get told that B was faster then D and C finished before D So whilst D came fourth, there's not enough comparative information about B to C.
My brother on the otherhand got the same score as me, but did answer something for these two questions.
Its still just a fifteen minute IQ test on Facebook with 30 questions. Its not that accurate. If you care deeply about these things, but a book to test your IQ, and even then, IQ tests aren't very good at high IQs
