no, there wouldnt be a curve, thats why this is marked in "What's So Funny"
But, theoritically, if this was a correlation, and the statistics were naturally distributed, then there would be as many people above the line, then there are below
Nihilooser was just talking about IQ only, I think. If 100 is the avg. There should be as many people with an over 100 IQ as below, nothing relating to religion.
I'm tipping jones has taken one of those internet IQ tests. I saw an ad the other day that claimed the average IQ was 125 and that if you answer 5 questions via sms they'll tell you your IQ. Fucking morons.
True, but then there's also one person with a 50. I did some work recently at a housing facility of mentally retarded people. One of the people there had a tested IQ of 5.
Five. His mental age was something like 11 months.
That's misleading, I mean IQ tests are inaccurate in the first place, but how are you going to give an IQ test to a retard? If they don't understand what they're meant to do then you can't measure their intelligence.
There is actually some validity to this-- only it's insofar as that people with a higher education and not necessarily higher IQs believe less and less in the importance of religion.
For real! (about Roscoe's)... but you guys are talking to a known Mormon.. It's best to always let them believe they are right.. and that way they will leave us alone...
Who's this "known mormon," dipshit? I'm might be a palygamist, but I'm no mormon. And I wasn't talkin shit about Roscoes, just about the average person that eats there.
With the standard deviation and a mean, you can calculate percentiles. Percentiles tell you the percent of people that have a score equal to or lower than a certain score.
I took an IQ test when I was little, apparently. Something about me being too young for my grade, so they tested me to see whether I should be held back or moved forward. But I'll keep my peace on the results. You'd all call 'bullshit' anyway, and you wouldn't be wrong to do so. It's too easy to lie on the internet. And anyway, the whole concept of "IQ" is a fucking joke.
omg, look who can define percentile.. its still different than %, which is a common abbreviation for percentAGE, so quit gettin' pissed because you dick size has a z score of -2.36
I don't know very many people at all who know their own IQ score, past or present, so either very few parents tell their children what score they got, or saber is wrong. He's probably thinking of placement tests children take before starting school, but that's not the same.
But anyway, as people have pointed out, IQ scores change drastically as we age, more often for the worse. Are we to believe we become less intelligent as we grow up? No. A test like that is way too conditional and objective to be valid.
There was no need at all for you to point out the obvious fact that they are different, you just 'thought' you were being clever. You were trying to correct me because you have no idea what you are talking about. You know it, I know it & everyone else knows it.
all mistakes about my intelligence aside, you used them both in the same comment as if they were the same thing, though clearly they are different..
so-
accept you were wrong
fap it to "asian sprinkler system"
..and
FUCK OFF!!
and I think you meant to say 'despite having no idea what you're talking about' Nobody corrects somebody BECAUSE they don't know what they're talking about
(for those on the lower side of the IQ mean, this is for oranje)
Ex: Bob scores a 84% on his test, but out of the whole class, he is in the 98th percentile..
IQ is often expressed in percentiles, which is not the same as percentage scores, and a common reason for the misunderstanding of IQ test scores. Percentage refers to the number of items which a child answers correctly compared to the total number of items presented. If a child answers 25 questions correctly on a 50 question test he would earn a percentage score of 50. If he answers 40 questions on the same test his percentage score would be 80. Percentile, however, refers to the number of other test takersâ scores that an individualâs score equals or exceeds. If a child answered 25 questions and did better than 50% of the children taking the test he would score at the 50th percentile. However, if he answered 40 questions on the 50 item test and everyone else answered more than he did, he would fall at a very low percentile â even though he answered 80% of the questions correctly
"and I think you meant to say 'despite having no idea what you're talking about' Nobody corrects somebody BECAUSE they don't know what they're talking about"
As for this, I clearly stated that you 'thought' you were being clever & because of this you were under the impression that you knew what you were talking about. It is BECAUSE of this, you corrected me BECAUSE, you in fact, didn't know what you were talking about.
I scored 136 on one I took when I was about 34 years old. It consisted of recognizing complex patterns, math word problems, and vocabulary. It was for fun and I agree with Hank. IQ is bollocks as there are so many forms of intelligence it doesn't measure
Nah Metal, you were just trying to pick fault where there was non.
I said "& percent, % & percentage are all the same fucking thing, dumbass.", because you wrote, "its still different than %, which is a common abbreviation for percentAGE". Probably unnecessary, but the 'AGE' in that prompted me. I didn't include percentile in that 'cause yeah, that would be different.
the thing is that i get things really fast. i dont oversee anything. but im that fuckn lazy that i never ever really learn anything..and i lack focus..
btw, I'll never stfu sucka! ..there is a rebuttal amidst the chaotic replies about IQ fallacies, so be sure to check that supererogatory word using cock boy
If you want an accurate measurement, then no. You'll have to stop being cheap & pay for a supervised test. They aren't expensive, just check out any high IQ society.
There was one I took on MENSA's site (could have been a link from there as I don't remember) a long time ago, I scored quite high but figured it was b.s...
it amuses me that the people visiting this website, who claim to have the highest IQ scores, seem to be the ones that generally post such intellectual nuggets as.... ' you are gay! ' ' well, you're gayer! ' ' you are so gay that other gays punch you for being TOO gay! ' etc etc
Comments to Religion vs IQ
People acturly go lower than 100 on this?
100 is average i think is how it works. so there should be just as many people under as there are over.
90 is avg actually
No, it is in fact 100, actually.
nihilus, is still an idiot for saying everything else in his post though.
"so there should be just as many people under as there are over."
I very fucking much doubt that there would actually be a curve in the correlation between peoples IQ's & their believe in a higher power.
no, there wouldnt be a curve, thats why this is marked in "What's So Funny"
But, theoritically, if this was a correlation, and the statistics were naturally distributed, then there would be as many people above the line, then there are below

If youre retarded enough to use the service Im sure one could think of a rough estimate.
there dont need to be as much people under as over. five people with 90 and one with 150 make an average 100.
True, but then there's also one person with a 50. I did some work recently at a housing facility of mentally retarded people. One of the people there had a tested IQ of 5.
Five. His mental age was something like 11 months.
1rish1?
That's misleading, I mean IQ tests are inaccurate in the first place, but how are you going to give an IQ test to a retard? If they don't understand what they're meant to do then you can't measure their intelligence.
Yeah, I think that IQ scores shouldn't go below 70. Anything lower than that just gets scored as "take them out back and shoot them"
There is actually some validity to this-- only it's insofar as that people with a higher education and not necessarily higher IQs believe less and less in the importance of religion.
What's this? They couldn't find anyone with an IQ over 110? Were they interviewing only at trailer parks, and Roscoe's Chicken?
America
Congress specifically.
The Republican side...
COMMANDMENTH THE ELEVENTH-TH
THOU SHALT NOT TAKETH ROSCOE'S NAME IN VAIN
srsly dont talk shit about roscoes, ill find you
For real! (about Roscoe's)... but you guys are talking to a known Mormon.. It's best to always let them believe they are right.. and that way they will leave us alone...
Who's this "known mormon," dipshit? I'm might be a palygamist, but I'm no mormon. And I wasn't talkin shit about Roscoes, just about the average person that eats there.
my iq is 121
Jamies is the highest on here, as far as I know at 136 (I think)
It's all about the % though since the numbers can vary per test with the same person.
PERCENTILES DON'T LIE!
umm.. percentage and percentile are different measurements, btw
when i was 14 mine was 134
last year i clocked in at 102
...wtf?
With the standard deviation and a mean, you can calculate percentiles. Percentiles tell you the percent of people that have a score equal to or lower than a certain score.
umm.. you wanna shut the fuck up now, idiot?
I took an IQ test when I was little, apparently. Something about me being too young for my grade, so they tested me to see whether I should be held back or moved forward.

And anyway, the whole concept of "IQ" is a fucking joke.
It is a great way of measuring abstract reasoning.
Granted it doesn't definitively give a score on other types of intelligence but they generally correlate.
I tested really high as a kid, but I guarantee I wouldn't get anywhere near as high now. I was higher than 136.
Gottlos--
all kids get IQ testing. just a matter of if you get it more than once.
"all kids get IQ testing. just a matter of if you get it more than once."
Not at all. If you do a proper test as a child you will get whatever score you are capable of. That score may change as an adult though.
(I just noticed you're the "90 is avg actually", guy. So you know nothing & should just be quiet)
omg, look who can define percentile.. its still different than %, which is a common abbreviation for percentAGE, so quit gettin' pissed because you dick size has a z score of -2.36
I don't know very many people at all who know their own IQ score, past or present, so either very few parents tell their children what score they got, or saber is wrong. He's probably thinking of placement tests children take before starting school, but that's not the same.

& percent, % & percentage are all the same fucking thing, dumbass.
So umm..again, shut the fuck up.
no you didn't gottlos that was how many cocks you sucked
all mistakes about my intelligence aside, you used them both in the same comment as if they were the same thing, though clearly they are different..
so-
accept you were wrong
fap it to "asian sprinkler system"
..and
FUCK OFF!!
Interesting. And naturally you couldn't come up with a worthwhile thought in a thread about intelligence.
and I think you meant to say 'despite having no idea what you're talking about' Nobody corrects somebody BECAUSE they don't know what they're talking about
Toward drumrave^. I don't even know how to respond to rambling bile like that Metalface.
Stop interposting me you fucking downs case!!!
no one included you in my argument with oranje, gottlos.. therefore, no need to respond
No one can tell or fucking care who your incoherent babbling is directed towards. Stop talking to yourself.
The fact that Jamie got what is considered a high score cements the idea IQ tests are a crock.
(for those on the lower side of the IQ mean, this is for oranje)
Ex: Bob scores a 84% on his test, but out of the whole class, he is in the 98th percentile..
see, its simple.. you're dumb
This may help you MetalFace.

Yikes... will you guys settle the fuck down already, and stop cuttin' and pastin' from wiki??
so you ADMIT that you knew that they were different terms, and you used them like that anyway, hmmm...
That is what I fucking said, you nob head.
You take the % to get the percentile WHICH DOESN'T FUCKING LIE!
I don't see you're problem.
lol, you could've said that first and got me off of your back, but you kept giving me ammo.. btw, it's spelled Knob :P
your exact words:
& percent, % & percentage are all the same fucking thing, dumbass.
IQ is bollocks.
I scored a 140 on the only IQ test I ever took, maybe around Jr. High school. That means I'm better than anyone with a lower score.
^take your religious claptrap elsewhere church boy
I scored 136 on one I took when I was about 34 years old. It consisted of recognizing complex patterns, math word problems, and vocabulary. It was for fun and I agree with Hank. IQ is bollocks as there are so many forms of intelligence it doesn't measure
l skore 210... opps sorry i was on the weight scale
Nah Metal, you were just trying to pick fault where there was non.

Probably unnecessary, but the 'AGE' in that prompted me. I didn't include percentile in that 'cause yeah, that would be different.
I'd like to think this is resolved now.
with 12 i had a 156. after 9 years of excessive drug abuse i dont think that i might get over 130. still studying physic.
the thing is that i get things really fast. i dont oversee anything. but im that fuckn lazy that i never ever really learn anything..and i lack focus..
Isn't 65 legally retarded? Oh wait these are people who talk to an invisible man and have to be told what to do every sunday nevermind
I do not mind telling people what to do every Sunday morning.
I think anything below 80 is retarded, but I could be wrong.
70
yup 70
are you talking "socially"
or as a legitimate criminal defense?
(not that i really NEED to know, ha ha)
I think they meant sexually.
No, sexually, doing women over 40 is retarded.
hey fish - i'm 45...any (legal)
advice?
That does look über scientific!
its a spot-on histogram
SHUT THE FUCK UP!
That is the second time you have replied to me with your fatuitous crap.
btw, I'll never stfu sucka! ..there is a rebuttal amidst the chaotic replies about IQ fallacies, so be sure to check that supererogatory word using cock boy
You really are retarded.
thats not what my remedial math teacher tells me
No, he probably just said, 'don't tell your parents'.
^ hahahahaha.
Does anyone know of an IQ test site that is scientifically legitimate and free?
If you want an accurate measurement, then no. You'll have to stop being cheap & pay for a supervised test. They aren't expensive, just check out any high IQ society.
There was one I took on MENSA's site (could have been a link from there as I don't remember) a long time ago, I scored quite high but figured it was b.s...
I took that test and they wanted me to be their new president.
I wrote the test when I was blind drunk.
I wiped my ass with the test and I still scored higher than all you fucks.
that's cus the shit on your scantron messed up the machine.
Half of the population have IQâs of between 90 and 110, withe the remaining half dispersed above and below that medium range.
A normal IQ range is considered to be from 85 to 115. Only approximately 1% of the people in the world have an IQ of 135 or over.
140+ is considered Genius.
Einstein was about 160.
And normally Doctors administer the test, and don't share the results because they want to avoid bias, or discrimination.
Why not just post the link? That way people could do what they do with Hank's wiki links; ignore them
132 here. i see myself as an aspiring genius with little drive.
I'm at 107Core.
I took a test about 5 or 6 years ago and I scored a 95.
Small wonder.
Only people that prefer ignorance ignore Wiki links.
Hmmm. Why didn't I post a link? Oh yeah. because that's what I remembered the results and bell curve being, as well as the two reference points.
That's great.
Hahhah Oranje.
here's the wiki i use...
http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/IQ
Just gotta say that I hate religious people, but it's not because some assholes did a graphic on Excel that it means that it's worth shit.
huh?
haha
My IQ is 128
that is bullshit^^
nobody with an i.q. over 100 participates in toaster fights
according to uncyclopedia, ryogavee's iq falls into the moron category.
Fuck Scientology !!
my IQ is 100......WIDE
Haha.
Clearly a huge sample size. And nothing that comes from Excel could be anything other than "Science."
Graphs with no sources are just pictures. This picture is dumb.
it amuses me that the people visiting this website, who claim to have the highest IQ scores, seem to be the ones that generally post such intellectual nuggets as.... ' you are gay! ' ' well, you're gayer! ' ' you are so gay that other gays punch you for being TOO gay! ' etc etc
Fuck off gayboy.
suck my balls shipman you homo..
Fucking gaywad homonoob.
That gay is so gay.
More men melt in his mouth than George Michael at Elton John's house.
When I was 16, my IQ was tested as 164. I have no idea what it is now.
You have no idea what it was then either.
the fact that you assclowns are actually debating and thinking of one of these posters logically, makes you retarded
