I got 135! First time you've ever beaten me at anything Will!
Stupid test must be wrong! ;)

Insightful linguists can take complex concepts and articulate them to just about anyone. You have a gift with words and insight into processes and the way people think. These talents enable you to explain things clearly to people.
All that and an IQ of 129

139 and feeling fine ... not bad for 12:30am :)
I am too a 'visual mathematican' ... 'Your talents help you understand the "big picture," which is partly why people may turn to you for direction -- especially in the workplace.'
= my usual response of "I'll be damned if I know what's up with them" :p
I'd like to point out (to Will) that by definition, the average IQ of any given population is 100 due to the way its derived ... so much for being a mathematician, eh? :p

OK Asif, my apologies. The average IQ of a tickle.com user is apparently 120. But then that's feasible as you would only expect people with above-average IQs to take IQ tests in the first place. The only way to get a 'real' average is to force everyone to take one.
Right?? Someone tell me I'm making sense!

Actually Mr Shah, you are wrong. And so is Will (Will is more wrong).
The UK average IS estimated at 100 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...). , but different nations of course have differing IQ levels (eg the USA has 98).
Now, the global average IQ is (by definition) 100. And, of course, if you take any sample of people then, because IQ scores are relative, the average will always be 100.
However, because any given 'nation' is only a portion of the global population, and is defined by the existence of other nations then performing a test to see 'what is the average iq of this nation?', would imply that it was to be compared with the IQ performance of other nations.
The fact that I understand the deeper intricacies of IQ tests and neither of you two do is just proof that IQ testing is stupid - otherwise I would have tested far higher than both of you! :P

Who cares, I have an IQ of 135... I'm happy with that... and isn't that all that counts.
