that's gotta be in the top 1% or better

what is with you and not doing stuff and then speculating about how well you would do it if you did it

Never had my IQ tested. But I used to argue a few years ago with this guy who tested 142, and I always beat him in our arguments. Clearly, I was smarter than him.

So, I'd say that I am about 148-150.

And furthermore, anyone less than 140 does not impress me.

Not an IQ test but I've done the ASVAB which has a .8 correlation. Scored 143 on the ASVAB. I have yet to meet anyone higher.

Sorry....ASVAB was 99...which is the highest it goes....my GT is 143.

Alan

300. They told me it was a record but it didn’t mean much to me.

Yes. A pre employment IQ test for a directors position administered by a Fortune 500 company back in 1999. I scored 144. Funny thing is the same company administered an IQ test for my father back in the 70’s for the same position. He scored 141. He also became the CEO.

In the end I turned the job offer down and started my own company.

96 at about 10 yrs ago and 98 more recently- but I just can't break that 100 number. 😬

Btw, I'm a retired 65 yr old stiff.

When self-reporting, 99% of people score in the top 1%…imagine that.

Credit to Greg because he is probably the only one being honest here.

Go figure almost everyone who responds claims an IQ > 140.

the fact that 99% of those self reporting, self-report that they are in the top 1% may not be a lie, though, because what if only the top 1% are prone to report?

In that case, all of them would fall into that elite category.

True but we can sort of tell that some do not belong on the top 1% from their posts.

True that.
