Have you had your IQ tested?

its funny you can tell when people lie about their iq because they dont know enough about it that they give iq score that though sounds reasonable is actually so high that the probability of having that score is ridiculously small and then you get 4 or 5 of those people in the same thread

I've grown fond of age-grading,

Anything like that in this application?

Only responses that can be taken seriously are if you’ve taken the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale version 4 test. It’s a multiple day test and the highest regarded and most accurate. I’ve taken it. If you really are that interested, that’s the one you take. Approximately $500. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wechsler_Adult_Intelligence_Scale

These threads are pointless as whatever intelligence we have all the boasting in the world is not going g to alter it one iota. It is what it is.

If a 60 year old ran a 4.15 mile, what would his age grade be?

open book question are you want me to wing it?

If winging it, I'd say 100% percentile, like world record,

The reason I asked is because there was a thread a few weeks ago where some posters were saying a sub 5 mile at 60 is World Class. This is the same level of silliness as people claiming they have Mensa Genius level IQ.

Silliness is right.

Really, can we just try not to compare ourselves with others? At least not openly?

IQ tests are worthless. I scored 127 and I ain't smart.

An abbreviated test showed 69, so they requested a formal exam to determine if I needed remedial treatment.

I scored 350.

They did not believe the exam, and they requested I retake a formal test. I scored 420.
