Brainteasers and brain puzzles are great ways to distract the mind on a morning commute or in a quiet moment, but for some people they are not enough.
For those who want to go deeper and find out what they’re IQ really is, there is an extensive test for those who want to find out.
Developed by the International IQ registry, the test is made up of 40 questions which test your ability to learn, understand, and form concepts.
The test also reportedly tests someone’s ability to process information and apply logic and reason.
As well as receiving an IQ score, respondents also get to compare their results to the rest of the population using statistics.
The test, according to the International IQ registry, has several purposes.
They say: “It allows determining one’s level of being able to learn, to understand, to form concepts, to process information, to apply logic and reason, in comparison to the population.
“It is indicative and can represent an influence on non-common characters that can be encountered in society, whether relational such as isolation, rejection or distance, or intellectual such as ease or difficulties encountered in intellectual activities.
“In another way, it can also explain successes acquired in ways easier than others by individuals.”
They added: “The IQ test we offer is used internationally by millions of users and new users take it every day.
“The statistics provided and established by the totality of the results make it possible to verify its reliability in relation to the calibration IQ scale system represented by the Gauss Curve.”
As well as providing users with a score, the website also provides a list of the signs that someone is gifted. They include a thirst for learning, perfectionism, the fear of oneself, and hypersensitivity.
They added that meta-cognitive awareness and an “interest that sometimes reaches an obsessive level in certain themes” could also be signs of someone that has a high IQ.
When ranking the candidate they also use a range of parameters including population, age group, level of study, and field of study.
