If you think that IQ tests are accurate at all at that age, I presume he's already smarter than you.

[Xatanxa]

I took a random internet IQ test, and it said, Mine was 144+, And that i should realy take an ACTUAL IQ test, because the internet wasnt good.

Cant believe an IQ test actually said it wasnt good.

[gingermagicman]

I got an IQ of 124 or something.
And I bet he sucks at blackjack and BMX.

Mensa must be desperate for members. If a 2 year old can get in, anyone can. Besides, if they're so smart, don't they know that IQ tests are rarely accurate? And how can you test a 2 year old anyway? They're just learning to speak, eat, shit, and sleep, so how does one qualify as a genius? Someone must have paid off a bunch of those Mensa people. No matter how smart you are, money will make you dumber than a blonde trying to buy a TV, which turns out to be a microwave.

Why is it that everyone I meet says that their IQ is >100.

100 is the set average for IQ, if everyone had an IQ of >100 then we would all be smarter than average.

Paradox ftl.

I'm really shocked that anyone actually got that reference lol. You deserve not one, but many cookies my good sir.

Altho my first post is still valid if anyone cares to read it and comment.

[Asalraalaikum]

Probably there was a mistake in the IQ test.

A 2-year-old getting into Mensa? Impressive. It seems like he has a hell of a lot of potential intellectually, but it's way too early in his life to figure out where he might be headed.

[Xavierthewarlord]

Neat.

Or he remembered the answers near perfectly.

If 1million 2 year olds took the multiple choice test, im sure someone will get a 100%

IQ tests don't mean shit. Especially online ones.

[Ejit]

You can't know whether someone's a genius unless they've proved it. And to prove genius you need to do something amazing, not just be very clever.

STFU. Average IQ is 120 but the majority of people have IQs between 130-150

170 is genius

Steven hawking is 214 or something

[hijackreaper]

I really don't see why they'd trust an IQ test, anyways. Just because you have a high IQ doesn't mean you're a genius, it just means that you can cumulatively remember much more information which in turn means you'd be able to pull and infer facts from you brain quicker and more effectively. Pretty much the only place that IQ would matter at all is on a math test. :S

And I apologize if I'm double posting, but did you even read the article? It blatantly says in the article that the highest the test can even measure is 160.

The standards are much lower than that; genius level is more around 145 to 150.

Just because he doesn't have as much knowledge as you, doesn't mean he's not smarter than you.

[Digital-Terror]

He'll grow up to be an idiot, I assure you.

Yeah that's sort of debatable.

I think the consensus is that the higher you get, the less it's meaningful.
I think the guy with the highest ever recorded IQ is working as a bouncer in some club.

Basically, with the kinds of questions that are asked on those tests, a computer would beat any human easily.

But generally, someone perceived as "smart" will have a high IQ. There's not really any people with a 70 IQ going around winning Nobel Chemistry prizes.

As long as you've above a certain number, you're smart enough where 60 extra points don't really make a difference. That number probably being around the 120-130 mark.

In other words: The difference between 70 and 90 is huge, the difference between 100 and 120 is big and the difference between 140 and 200 is almost irrelevant :o

Speed of processing power is not means for philosophical contemplation.

They always juxtapose kids like this with being intelligent, when that isn't true at all.

Haha, exactly.

It's the same with penis size.

[AioriaRox]

IQ tests only get "accurate" when you're 18 years old, and even then it's damn inaccurate.
