Has anyone here actually had a real IQ test? They’re administered by psychologists and it takes like 2-3 days of different tests. No one doing any online test is doing a real IQ test. Not that they’re the end all be all for intelligence anyways.
I took one as a kid, my parents had all of us tested. I was always told I was smart but they never told me the number. Just that “you can do anything you put your mind to”. I literally didn’t know I was taking an IQ test and have no memories of what it was like other than the person doing the test was a lady and she had me doing something with wooden blocks. This was all as a prerequisite to get into some gifted program. They lost my results for a bit so I didn’t get in until second grade (USA) so it had to be some time in first grade or before. I won’t spell out my life story here, so I’ll stop there. Anyway yeah that was my experience with it.
