I got a 96. I also had a 5 yr old talking to me about where I work and about something she is watching that I am not.

The math section totally screwed me too..I suck at math...Originally Posted by HopeHacker
I only recieved 100. I only got 1 of the math questions right. If they didn't have math I would have recieved a decent score, also I didn't do that well on perception.
I bet if the dumb timer wasn't involved, we all could do better. I recall doing an IQ test in school and there wasn't a timer!Originally Posted by CarolPetunia
Well, I had two parents and six cats all over me... and you're right, that timer does make you crazy! I know I stabbed a few random answers just to get something in. But I did eke out a 128:
Language - 12/12
Memory - 5/6
Logic - 9/12
Visual Memory - 5/6
Math - 10/12
Perception - 10/12
But when I was in school, I tested at 161! AUGH! Apparently, my brain cells are dropping like flies...
I don't find it hard to believe, not saying because I think you're not smart, but because average intelligence is between 90 and 110 and the majority of the population score in this range and because there are so many factors like types of intelligences, anxiety, being tired, distractions and such.Originally Posted by Trouts mom
I find it hard to believe that MOST TCS members got so far over 100...Not because I don't think everyone is smart...To me it seems odd because I consider myself very intelligent and its strange that so many people beat my lowend score.
I would try it again undistracted, but the questions are the same until next week, so I would have a leg up. (My friend sent it to me and just said "do this" with no warning that it was not some cheesy test..and I was watching Greys Anatomy so I was anything but focussed)
Next week I will pay more attention and hopefully get a better score.
OOPS - forgot my score thingies:Originally Posted by Bonnie1965
I got 117. Haven't looked at other's scores yet. The math part was tough!
