Of course I wasn't suggesting that an IQ test would be the only thing you might do.
My IQ= Googling "what is an average IQ"
Well I got bored half way through, so thought the offer of guidance from a psychic for next thirty years too good to be true so opted for that.
All were either off line or taking a break.
So much for that!
Not sure what to do now?
Probably unemployable?
Very glad to see a North Dakota participant. Not sure if we have any others at this time. Welcome.
I missed the number of four-sided figures. I got 22 and it said there were 25. It's hard to count the four-sided figures. I'm think I could get it with a bit more studying. (I think that is the only one I missed. It lets you view the correct answers, but I didn't see where it said what you got wrong or right).
I believe I missed three when I did this before. Today, making note of Tom's answer above, I took the test over. I changed my answer on one and used Tom's answer on another. Of course, i was able to rip right through the test (Does time have an influence on results?). Then I checked the correct answers. I had only missed one answer. The new number was 159.
The one I have missed twice is a series problem. Even knowing the correct answer I still can't figure out how the series is created. I have been a strong math person my entire life, yet series seem to be my downfall. Of course, that was proven to me repeatedly when I took Series and Differential Equations following Calculus I, II and III. I did pass the class but I think they gave me about 90 extra credit points for spelling my name correctly on the test paper. Apparently they wanted me back in that class even less than I wanted to be back in that class, so it was a win-win solution.
Remember when.....
Praise the Lord and Hallelujah! I don't remember that!
I think I only missed one, and I got 145. Maybe time is a factor. I studied on some of those series ones a bit. (perhaps I missed more than one, but when I looked @ the correct answers, I thought I had them all correct except the one.)
Regardless, I doubt that is my IQ. 145 would be pretty high I think.
Without a time constraint this test is meaningless.
Why? IQ in part is knowing not to rush into a wrong answer.
With today's resources (the Internet); how could you get any answer wrong? Given enough time...

You mean like not posting an erroneous result to a flawed test?
A superficial test that artificially skews high is much more likely to drive web traffic and make the host money than one that is accurate...either that or the average IQ of Surveyor Connect members exceeds the upper 90 percentile score of every other profession.
Common sense points to the first option, but my ego leans toward the latter 😀
Let's just say that at age 52 it's 18 points lower than when I was tested at age 14 and leave it at that...

I have never evaluated a potential hire but would not put any stock in using an IQ test as a tool beyond judging their reaction and attitude, I think I would have a hard time asking though.
All you have to do is attend a Mensa meeting to see that IQ and success (or anything else for that matter) have no relationship whatsoever...
I got 133...my eyes starting bugging out on the 4 sided question..
If i got 133, the test is flawed.
You will not be affected by 100 percent of the chances you don't take...
131
