Some IQ Tests
An interesting site on Uncommonly Difficult IQ Tests. I took the Word Classification Test because it seemed the easiest to do online, although it does seem to be the least valid for testing actual IQ. I scored 163 out of 200 on it. (Am I the only one who has noticed that Swedish speakers of English as a second language always tend to blow us native speakers out of the water on these glorified vocabulary quizzes?) Anyway, the articles listed in the links section seem interesting. I'll point out The Outsiders by Grady Towers as a good read. I might have something to say about it later. Update: I just want to point out, in case there had been some confusion, that the number score from the Word Classification Test is not meant to suggest an IQ. It is the number of questions you get right out of 200 total.
