I don't think that qualifies as a legitimate IQ test, does it? I'm no Forrest Gump, but believe me, my IQ is nowhere near 214, unless watching Law & Order: SVU while taking a test increases your score. :lol:

(I have heard that listening to classical music can increase your IQ.)

haha. No, if ANYONE gets 214, it's not a legitimate IQ test.

However, most people don't know that, so it's fun to tell people you scored 214 on an IQ test.

My IQ is in the 140's, but what this means is I'm painfully smart enough to know I'm stupid. I didn't take the test.

An accurate IQ test (is that an oxymoron? :lol: ) has to be timed. There are free tests out there if you search for them. Some may require that you register, but they are free none the less.

Now, if you really want your head to explode, contact your local MENSA representative and take the proctored membership exam. Takes about two hours, and another hour to sit in your car afterwards before you can drive. :P You won't receive a grade, just an accept/regrets letter a few weeks later in the mail. It costs around $30, but if you happen to take the exam during one of the regional gatherings you will typically be invited to stick around and enjoy the meetings/discussions as a guest.

LOL! If I didn't know so much about Toogs, I'm sure my score would have been lower. :wink:

The only reason I took it is because it said it was PhD certified.
