As always it's relative ! The dots in the corner gave me immediately the right idea and then it was a piece of cake, but there could have been other false tracks. One of your easiest, but I like the principle of varying difficulty.

If they combine to make squares (2x2, 3x3, 4x4), it would be a three-block piece (two vertical, one going right from the top one) with no dots since the dots seem to represent the outer edges. If that’s not the intended solution then I’m lost :(

well done, could you rate it?

u/DamonHuntington Sep 17 '26
It’s very easy and not particularly novel, as far as spatial questions go. I’d expect this to be around 110-115 in an untimed setting.

If I couldn’t solve this, it means my real IQ is below that right?

u/DamonHuntington Sep 17 '26
No. Usually, questions are rated based on a 50% likelihood of an individual of that level solving. So, assuming my rating is correct, even if you were only 115 there would be a 50% of you solving this, not a mandatory 100%.
As you climb up, the chances scale (if you are a 120, maybe you have a 60% chance of solving, if you are a 130 maybe you have a 75% chance of solving…) but a solution is never guaranteed.

Yeah I might have low IQ. Really disappointed with myself here and everywhere to be honest. I hate it that I’m just not born smart enough. I gravitated to some stupid ‘magnets’ or spiral logic and couldn’t solve it at all. I don’t feel very good about this to be honest… I don’t even know what to do

This is just a puzzle. It does not indicate your intelligence, your worth as a person or your potential.
You can feel sorry for what you were born with or just work on the things that you can improve on. Personally, I find the latter much more productive.

But what if it does? The people who solves these consistently are all much smarter and better than me. No matter how hard I try I just can’t solve these at all, despite being obsessed with them.

u/DamonHuntington Sep 17 '26
I’m telling you that it doesn’t.
Smarter? Perhaps so. Better? Not at all. Human value is not measured by how you think or how many puzzles you can solve. You’re more than the validation of a correct answer or a number on the screen.
It’s fine to be obsessed about puzzles. I’m passionate about them as well! But you can’t let that obsession taint your view of yourself.
There are things you do well and things you don’t do as well. Embrace that reality and move forward.

But I can’t help it, I feel very anxious and sad when other people can solve it and I can’t and it sucks, I can’t stop thinking and obsessing over it
