DO you know your IQ?

I wanted to know my IQ score and took a free on-line test offered by Tickle. Just for fun. And it turned out I got a pretty good score – 131! I even got a certificate for it. Don’t know its use thought but looks pretty impressive. See how it looks here.

And they also gave a full report of my performance.

According to their assessment my intelligence is of a Facts Curator type. I also learned some interesting things about how my brain functions. My intelligence breakdown according to their report is as follows:

• Mathematical intelligence – 100th percentile.
• Visual-Spatial intelligence – 80th percentile.
• Linguistic intelligence – 100th percentile.
• Logical intelligence – 90th percentile.

These percentiles were based on one million users who have already taken the tests. Not bad.
