Precision Processor
ReplyDeleteYour IQ Score is: 111
You've got a very experiential way of learning and a strong mathematical mind. You're able to whittle even the most complex situation down to comprehensible component parts. In short, you have mastered the art and science of precision. That's what makes you a Precision Processor.
For you, life is a series of equations. Your brain is naturally predisposed to intense mathematical acuity, and your understanding of numerical problems is unparalleled. It's second nature for you to cut to the heart of an issue, so that you can discover quick solutions to problems while others get bogged down in unnecessary details. One Precision Processor that comes to mind is the Greek philosopher-mathematician, Pythagoras. Pythagoras had a mind for numbers and, as such, could come up with previously unknown theories like his method for calculating the sides of a right triangle (a2+b2=c2). You too, can use numbers to translate aspects of the world around you — something that doesn't come easily to everyone. Your quick mathematical mind will allow you to communicate a variety of ideas to other people, so don't keep it to yourself.
Precision Processors can apply their mathematical skills to any situation involving numbers. That's a talent that will come in handy for everything from the workplace to splitting a bill 12 ways to converting foreign currency in your head. Others often look to you to do the math and luckily, you're well equipped.
I would have done better but the picture questions didnt show up on mine. Thats a negative on the validity.
Your IQ Score is: 108
ReplyDeleteYou are equipped with a verbal arsenal that enables you to understand complex issues and communicate on a particularly high level. These talents make you a Word Warrior.
Whether or not you recognize it, your vocabulary is your strongest suit—use it whenever you can. Since your command of words is so great, you are also a terrific communicator — able to articulate big ideas to just about anyone. Your wordsmithing prowess will also help in artistic and creative pursuits. The power of words translates to fresh ideas off paper too. Since you have so many words at your disposal, you are in a unique position to describe things in an original way, as well as see the future in your mind's eye. In short, your strengths allow you to be a visionary — able to extrapolate and come up with a multitude of fresh ideas. And you are in good company — bask in the brilliance of Word Warriors who have walked before you. William Shakespeare let loose the power of his pen. His ability to articulate the most subtle nuances of human nature and to create colorful characters are why his stories still have a major impact — even 400 years after he first wrote them. Whether you put pen to paper or use your understanding of the words around you to come up with creative approaches to problems, your potential as a Word Warrior is terrific.
This quiz seems a little iffy to me. I think that yes it does put out reasonable results but saying that they are the best iq test there ever is, is a little much, and makes me question how relaible it actually is.
Well, I decided to take the test and I did not want to sign up for it so it would not give me my score.
ReplyDeleteMy thought of the validity of this test is that it is not a very valid source. This is due to it being an internet source that could have been made up by anyone. It doesn't really say it is made up by any professionals.
So I would say that this test does not really measure the intelligence of a person.
The validity and reliabiltiy of this test is questionable because some of the questions dont seem to be very multi-cultural. I think that if different, more specific questions were incorporated, then minorities might be able to better understand the test and they might be able to get better scores.
ReplyDelete2) I could not see it with my eyes!
ReplyDelete3) You can't be for sure how valid the quiz is because we don't know who the quiz is made by. And your IQ can be different when it comes to other tests.
1.)I took the test.
ReplyDelete2.)It would not show me my score.
3.)This test did not work. You can't see the pictures so you have to just guess. That's not reliable. I don't like this test at all. The school needs to take the filter thing off so we can see the pictures and retake the test. It's not valid either. They wont even let you see your results.
You can't see the result so....not sure how accurate it would be?
ReplyDeleteThe web site would not let me see my results.
ReplyDeleteI thought this IQ test was kinda hard some of the questions were a little confussing but some were kind of common sence things.
My score was a 126. It said i was a Precision processor and scored high in the math parts. I think it is pretty valid but not as accurate as some IQ tests are. Couldn't see the pictures though.
ReplyDeleteI think the reliability on this test is average. they ask questions you dont hear every day but they also ask questions that people should know.

its not reliable becasue a lot of the ?'s u could not see
My score was a 117. They said i was a word warrior and the use of words was my best skill. I don't know how valid this is because of the inability to use pictures in the test, also I think that it could be somewhat right, as it agrees with my linguistic intelligence scoring.
ReplyDeletei scored 100, they said i am equipped with a verbal arsenal that enables me to understand complex issues and communicate on a particularly high level. These talents make me a Word Warrior. i didnt really care what it said about me or said my score was.
ReplyDelete2) I got a 95, I was an Inventive Inquistor. I learn off of other things happening at that time. I like teaching others and are good at it. Ben Frankin was this also.
ReplyDelete3) I like the test, I think I would have gotten a better score if I could have seen the pictures other than that I thought it was a good test.
I got a 104 on it. It is completely wrong because my vocabulary is not my strongest trait. i am also not a good communicater. And i am in no way a "Word Warriors".
ReplyDeleteMy IQ was 113. They said that i had a strong vocabulary which i believe is true. The score cannot be completely accurate because first of all I was unable to answer questions due to technical difficulties. Also i dont believe your complete IQ can be found with just 40 questions. I think that it may give a close idea to your IQ, but again, its from an internet site. The only way to truly test your IQ would be to go to a specialist.
