Yeah. How a test is supposed to accurately gauge IQ when it has but 10 questions that change every time, half of which are irrelevant to intelligence, is beyond me.  ::)

~~~~~~~~~~~

Here's a short IQ test that's "accurate" as well:

1) What is your first name?
2) Are you sure?
3) Did your mother have any children that lived?
4) Have you stopped beating your wife yet?
5) Are you still in the closet?
6) What is your Social Security Number? (used for entertainment purposes only)
7) Please describe superstring theory in 10,000 words or more.
8) True or false: water is the most abundant element on Earth.
9) Name, in alphabetical order, all of the chemicals found in tobacco.
10) Explain the nature of the universe.

You have 90 seconds to complete this test.

I found one before that had 40 questions....

This one says mine is 88.08... The irony being that the 40 question one said I had an IQ of 124.

One question I had was:

"One of the original Beatles was George Best, who replaced him as drummer?

I really wouldn't trust the scoring on this test.  ::)  which mine was 104.95 the first time and 111.24 the second

I don't feel that knowing who the person who replaced George Best was makes anyone smarter.

And um:

In getting confused between Harrison and Indian-born Pete Best, the questioner has managed to mention the name of soccer player George Best, one of, if not the, best players in the world at the time, whose life was, as most here know, ravaged by drink. While his playing career was nothing short of exemplary, his personal life can unfortunately be summed up in one famous quote:

"I spend most of my money on booze, birds, and fast cars - the rest, I squandered."
