Maybe it should just say “this means your intelligence is below average”. I genuinely think someone with <80 IQ would have a very low chance of understanding the text as presented in the screenshot.
Stupid people are people with human rights too, and they should be considered with empathy when building a society. That should be particularly obvious to a site that performs IQ tests. For every person with an IQ above 100, there’s a person below.
The thing is, people with low IQ and stupid people are two different groups. My IQ was once tested over 140, and I have done, and still sometimes do, some pretty stupid stuff. I can also be quite dense.
Just took a test out of curiosity, but the result screen is much different.
Disclaimer: Don’t take too much of the score for granted, the test isn’t that comprehensive, and just by knowing basic math and intermediate logic you may reach a similar score.
A “real” IQ test also scores you on different types of skills, or at least the one I was given to take did. I ended up above average on things such as math and logic skills while scoring below average on language skills, which, knowing me sounds about right.
I have always wondered why language skills are in an IQ test. If someone speaks 1 language he’ll be better off than someone speaking 3 as the test is only in one language?

It measures you information processing capacity - not wisdom. High IQ people quite famously aren’t always the nicest ones to be around.

Yeah, there was nothing about language in it, but I took it anyway just for the sake of it.
Wish I could take an official one, purely out of curiosity.

Did you really pay them? I just did the test and now it’s asking for 2€
Yeah, I had to pay, I don’t think there’s a way around that but I didn’t mind.
I’m wondering the same.
If you pay the 2€, remember to unsubsribe from the monthly subsciption that those sneaky bastards sign you up for.
