What's your IQ?
I just took a free test online and they said I scored 119.
So nothing to be afraid of folks.
I answered 7 out of 10 questions correctly.

So far today, I've been a genius 3 times in seven attempts.
I have 3 more races to go.

Now we're getting somewhere.
I guess IQ doesn't mean that much but I was just asking.
These tests are all flawed but let's be honest, they are only an indicator.
My Father was tested by the US Army at 142.

IQ tests are highly overrated.
I tested in high school as a sophomore at 136.
I took one in college and scored 148.
I don't believe either number, nor the testing.

10,000 random people were asked to guess what their IQ was. Their answers averaged out to 138. Then they were asked how long they thought they would live. The average there was 89 years.

I'll take the 89 thaskalos.
Not sure what you're implying here, but let's just agree to say yes these tests are meaningless except for my Father . . .

If you are 50 and beyond...there is no need for any IQ test. Just look at the life that you've created around you. THAT'S how "smart" you are.

Huh? Why? The tests are either meaningless or not.
I can't remember the details but there was a study done a while ago in which the subjects were asked how intelligent they were, and the majority answered "above average". Even if you aren't a stats wiz you should be able to figure out why that is unlikely to be true. I think the study had a pretty large sample size.
