Yes dear Sir!.
But I never agreed with results of my math related subjects, specially when Calculus or Advanced Algebra show!. I did really sweat on that hard stuff!. It was so disgusting during my schooling, those I!.Q!. tests even in college!. I felt average!. But I wasn't really satisfied!. When I knew my closest friends got higher rates!. They started teasing on me!. That I didn't really took my reviews seriously!. Why did I passed!?
I had ranged from 82 to 88 those times!. My close friends and cousins got 88 and above!. Since we have been in the same schools!. Comparing our results have been unavoidable!. But we knew somehow our weaknesses and interests!. As we accept it that way to ourselves and to eachother!.
We can not really keep the results just by ourselves!. Even if we try to!. As our administrator would recite the results in front of everyone in our class while they give us back the total score results of our major I!.Q!. exams!. It had been that way or some other by posting our names on school boards!.
I am ashamed to myself than I can ever be to others!. I feel so much regret when I scored below my expectations!. I had been have my exemptions in subjects related in Social Sciences and Psychology that scored well!. Then some practical applications, forms and objects!. Then my poorest in Math (numerical) related subjects!.

I am not fond in counting!.!.^^

When I was younger I was put into a Mensa program at my school!. They had me do a lot of different tests including IQ tests!.
I don't really understand to this day why they made a big deal of it!.
I don't think I'm different than other people really in any way, just real good with puzzles when it comes down to it!.
My family knows the results and maybe a few friends but I think it's embarrassing so I mostly keep it to myself!.

This sounds silly but sometimes I feel like a little freak, like I should be smart or something and really I'm not!.


If interested, the last test I had I was at 162!. It might have changed over the years though, I haven;t had a test since I was in 5th grade, which was 8 years ago!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi, yes!. I've been clinically tested at over a Buck 50, and I also agree with Bill!. I think testing is a relative thing, and no I never brag it up!. I don't even USE it all the time, LOL!. It kinda comes in handy like when you wanna get a pack of gum and the clerk says "Plus 3 cents tax!." I pull out my IQ and figure out how to make it benefit me!.

i've taken them online for fun and i usually score a 131 or 132!. i don't know how i feel about the score or not!. it's not a professional test, so it's not necessarily legit, you know!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. There was a group of people measuring IQ by test at school, but you had to pay to participate!. I think if I am ever going to solve problems for someone else he better pay me!Www@QuestionHome@Com

don't test well !!!!!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
