Whats your IQ?

IQ (Intelligent Quotient) is a numerical figure used to assess a person's mental capability. The term was coined by a German scientist and has now become a standard measure of mental acumen. According to most sourced, an IQ equal to or above 140 is regerded as a genius but this is controversial as many factors can affect the accuracy of the value including the credibility of the test administered, the conditions in which the test was taken, the age and sex of the test taker, among many other things.
I gave the test when I was 12 and I got a 180;so, according to the thresholds, I am a super genius but the test was taken by my aunt who was but a psychology student. Thus, the credibility of the IQ value is debatable.
Anyways, if anyone of you is interested, you can go to the follwing link.Fair warning though!folks. Since, I am about to take the test, I can not comment on the value of the test but nevertheless, if you got some time free, its worth a try, isn't it?
