This is a legit score, and the test was administered by a licensed psychologist. The test was done when I was 19.
I guess I'm low-key bragging, but I don't have much else to brag about in my life.
It's nothing absurd, though, only the top 8%. Definitely above average but not genius tier or anything.
I wonder if I could've got a higher score if I had eaten beforehand and hadn't gotten up early to meet with the psychologist, which gave me stress.
It might be lower depending on when the test was normed. I think the general rule is that the test is 0.3 points off for every year that passes.
I don't know if that's the case here.
I'm not trying to rub it in, but I was genuinely very shocked when I first saw it. I thought my IQ would've been around 90-95.
In retrospect, I shouldn't be too surprised because I spoke my first sentence around 8 months old, and I could write my full name when I was 4 years old, when the other kids in my class were struggling to write their first names.
I owe it to my mom and my maternal grandmother. They would read to me a lot as a kid, and my mom used to be an English teacher.
Either that or their genetics. I think I would've ended up retarded if it were up to my dad or maternal grandfather because they just sit in front of the TV all the time and rarely taught me anything of value. In fact, they actually taught me some wrong things.
Have any of you guys taken a legit IQ test before? (Not that free online garbage).
