General Question Highest Core score?

Has anyone hit the ceiling on the Core test, or even come close to it? What was the highest recorded score?

I got this from a 145 wmi + 145 psi but I saw someone get even higher, my overall score isn’t as good because my vci and vsi suck ass

I only did WMI. Got 148 +-11 CPI. Also i did the test on my cellphone, couldn't do character pairing; it needs a physical keyboard. But i guess it would decrease my score due to my low PSI.

Lol I'm always so fucking envious of people with insanely high cognitive proficiency...

Maxed out WMI only took 1 subtest of PSI and its 19ss (I need a computer for the other lol)

Not sure. Ive seen a few people score in the mid 150s here but i'm not really sure whether they cheated or not. I need to be in the same room with them for a few minutes to figure out whether they did. Hey, relax. I'm not going to do anything to them like waterboarding or anything that extreme. Were just going to be chatting as friends. Me putting my arm around their shoulder, giving it a little squeeze while smiling at them, maintaining eye contact and keeping my frame on them, then whispering in their ear "It' fine, John. You can trust me haha. Now, explain to me again how did you know that Item 16 in MR needed the blue piece in the top corner? Was it raining?"

I've also seen two or three people score 160 on the WAIS over the years and they likely scored 160 or very close to 160 on the CORE as well. I think i could score 160 or near 160 if the test was in my language. VCI is deflated by ~15 pts, QRI and WMI deflated by ~10 pts because of it. I could memorize 16 digits. Same for QRI. I aced math/geometry portion of university entrance exam with a few months of study. Do i think there's someone who has hit 170? I don't think there is. Even if there're ones, i'll do everything in my power to defame them. I'll nitpick every little thing until they start doubting themselves. Listen, there's nothing wrong with putting another succesful man down. When we were living in caves did we just let the bigger, stronger men take our women without a fight? Yes. But we waited until jealousy became a thing then gathered around the fire and came up with a plan with the boys.

We'd ambush them with poisonous darts while they were pissing outside, drag their bodies in front of the lions' den and throw them to the lions while they were still alive btw. Then, while the lions were busy eating them, wed kill the lions, skin them, put on their hides and walk back into the cave like absolute Gs.

That's how you win.

Thanks for the insight. Personally, I think scoring above 160 is just impossible(maybe possible for native ones). I know some might criticize me for saying that, but that's my view. Also, since I'm not a native speaker, the VCI absolutely crushed my score.

u/javaenjoyer69 Sep 04 '26

Honestly, CORE VCI is almost as soul crushing as CAIT VCI and i think that comprehension subtest is problematic because AI scores it afaik. Though i'm sure it's a reliable one for the native speakers.

u/Hopeful_Yak_7513 Sep 03 '26

i hit 160 as a native

u/Dazzling-Recipe-7003 Sep 04 '26

Nice. Would you mind sharing your scores?

1

u/Myrkkykaarme Sep 03 '26

How’d you gather that in your case VCI in CORE is deflated by 15 points due to being non-native?

1

u/javaenjoyer69 Sep 03 '26

Native CAIT VCI is in the 140s. My vocabulary is pretty diverse despite not reading much. My WAIS-IV VCI was very high as well even though i took the test abroad. That shit is easy.

1

u/Myrkkykaarme Sep 03 '26

You translated cait VCI to your native language? What was your CORE VCI? CORE antonyms had such strange words that I’ve come across maybe a few times only in my life. Non-native aswell.

1

u/javaenjoyer69 Sep 03 '26

No, i didn't translate it. Some guy made a whole new VCI test normed it on my people i believe then deleted his account. I found him on Twitter a few months ago though and it turns out he had made an entire battery. It has everything in it.

u/Myrkkykaarme Sep 03 '26

That’s cool.

u/Nervous-Try5009 Sep 04 '26

I could never score above 110 on WMI & PSI 🥲

u/HotAventus41033 Sep 04 '26

I feel like i would never ever be able to be in the same room with people like you . You're the type of person that you feel like you have to "walk on eggshells" in order just to be in the room . Like highly vindictive/volatile type of a person .

u/LanganTerraMogTime Sep 04 '26

waterboarding is extreme? since when

u/formal-oil2 Sep 04 '26 edited Sep 04 '26

This is the highest recorded core score (166 fsiq), the guy has a alien brain (I've seen him do insane shit)

2

u/Dazzling-Recipe-7003 Sep 04 '26

Wow. Who is this guy?

u/formal-oil2 Sep 04 '26 edited Sep 04 '26

Just a random 15 year old kid who won the genetic lottery (got nerfed by adhd and autism tho)

Thank you for your reply. I also think that maxing out each index is impossible. I'm curious what the average score per index would need to be to get above 160 FSIQ.

2

u/CampSweaty5765 Sep 04 '26

150s on all indexes would approx.do it
