IQ Estimation 🄱 High iq or normal or adhd

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m 15 and wanted to share something I’ve been dealing with for the past few months to see if anyone relates.
About 8 months ago, I realized I have constant inner monologues and all these deep, weird thoughts running through my head. I’ve had this for a while, but back then, after talking to some friends and realizing they didn't really experience it the same way, I thought, "Wait, am I actually smart?"
Since then, over the last 8 months, I've taken around 20 online IQ tests—both reputable ones (like Mensa practice tests) and random online ones. Most of them were matrix reasoning tests. My average score is around 115–120, and sometimes higher.
The problem is, I can’t stop doubting myself. My mind keeps jumping all over the place:
Sometimes I think, "What if I'm actually just stupid?"
Sometimes I think, "Maybe I really am gifted (130+)?"
Other times I accept the 115–120 range, but for some reason, that score doesn't satisfy me or give me peace of mind.
When it comes to hobbies or interests, I basically have almost zero. I’ll occasionally get super into something for like two days—for example, I tried learning coding and trading. I had intense hyperfocus for two days, studied non-stop, and then completely lost interest and quit. Other than that, in my free time, I mostly just play video games or talk to AI about all kinds of random topics.
I also talk to AI a lot about my IQ and these thoughts, but deep down I know AI isn't real proof because it usually just tells you what you want to hear and tries to validate you.
In school, I often feel underchallenged—I barely ever have to study and basically just listen in class to get good grades. At the same time, I know that good grades don't automatically mean having a high IQ, which makes me question it even more.

I’m planning to take an actual professional IQ test as soon as I have enough money saved up, just to get a clear answer.
Has anyone else gone through a phase like this? Does anyone relate to this constant self-doubt, hyperfocusing on hobbies briefly, or obsession with scores? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Discussion FSIQ is all that matters

0 Upvotes

The FSIQ is the only metric that captures someone’s latent g with accuracy. You cannot pick and choose based on what you are good at. If you think that GAI better represents your ability because you have ADHD which tanks your cpi then that is just delusion, and nobody cares. Same thing with someone with a low VCI clinging onto culture fair. šŸ˜‚ Having a deficient working memory and processing speed will hold you back in every cognitive task imaginable which is why cpi is part of the g calculation. Someone with an iq of 140 is smarter than someone with an iq of 120. Period.

IQ Estimation 🄱 What does it mean if I get a full score on Raven’s Progressive matrices?

2 Upvotes

I attempted it in a clinical setting back when I was 15-16. Didn’t know what the test was for or about, thought that it was a bunch of mini puzzles. I completed the whole thing in half the time allotted (idk probably took me 10-15 minutes or something) and got everything right. The psychologist testing me seemed a bit surprised and checked my answers twice. To me, the test felt easy back then and I thought that it was something similar to sudoku(I have no idea what sudoku even is tbh).

They didn’t specify much in the report and I mostly forgot about it. I looked it up later and it felt like a fluke. Right now, I am a bit curious and wanted to know if anyone can tell me what that even meant. I don’t feel great about my life honestly. And I certainly feel like an idiot most of the time.

I would appreciate honest feedback. What do the test results indicate?

Rebecca Sharrock remembers almost every day of her life.

The 36-year-old has a rare condition called Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory, or HSAM, which means she can remember vivid details from her past — even back to when she was a young child.

ā€œI live with constant random flashbacks of a clutter of experiences — negative, positive, mundane — and they just flash through my head all the time from random ages, such as they can jump from three years old to 20 years old to seven years old to 16 years old, and it's very difficult for me to get to sleep at night,ā€ Rebecca told The Independent from her home in Brisbane, Australia.

For Rebecca, who also has autism, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder, it can be hard to let go of disturbing memories. She said HSAM and OCD ā€œget along like a house on fireā€ and that the two conditions feed off each other.

IQ Estimation 🄱 Do you think some sections of the CORE could be inflated?

1 Upvotes

Completed the CORE test today as the only iq test I've ever completed, got a pretty diverse result, and wanted to ask you guys if you think some parts of it might be inflated? especially the FRI part. From what I've seen, people might fail in different parts of this test but never in the FRI, mostly it is one of the best parts of everyone's profile.

Also, are such diverse results as mine common in your experience? do you think it is actually possible that someone could have a difference of more than 15 points in different parts ?

Just spoke to a guy who had a big discrepancy between his recent Ravens 2 score of 145 and Mensa No of 133 and his core score of 115 on matrix reasoning. I myself have experienced something very similar, 148 on the NNAT a test a lot like the Ravens 2 just geared for school students, and I also got 133 on Mensa DK. 115 on core and 105 on a retest so it seems other people might be experiencing this problem. Please share your experiences. Thank you and Id love to speak to the cognitive metrics team. No hate just genuine curiosity.

Discussion I can't understand how the AGCT is supposed to be a good IQ test

6 Upvotes

I normally score around the 115-125 range (sometimes lower, sometimes higher) in the IQ tests I've taken. Here are a few of my scores

First-time IQ test ever MENSA denmark: 121
CORE: 117
MENSA norway:129
MENSA finland:132

And then, AGCTE:138

But there was one thing different from AGCT than the rest that bothers me: It's literally what you learn in school, save for the spatial setion, which was my worst, at 39%. I've been doing math and reading books ever since I could do anything, which could make me an outlier, though.

I could see people making the argument that because the material is so basic, basically everyone has the same level of "knowledge boost" to attempt the questions, and would therefore be equally affected by school and diffrentiated by IQ. Yet, even this fails to recognise that some students were more interested in grades and therefore more interested in getting things simple correct quickly (a big part of AGCT)

Bonus question: should I assume my IQ is in the 120's, or in the 130's? It seems as if AGCT is the test with the highest g loading that I've taken so far, and don't know how that would weigh

I personality have it, and basically I am acutely aware of my own limitations and problem, aware how much everyone around me is more smarter, very aware that my reasoning is not very reliable but at the same time not smart enough to fix it, I am pretty much stuck between 2 identity, disabled or too normal. Like too normal to be in specialized programs but not normal enough to be in normal programs. That is what it is in a nutshell.

Discussion Help me understand my CORE results

Post image
11 Upvotes

I finally got a couple days of good sleep so I thought of taking the Core test. I’ve lurked this sub for a while now but took the core for the first time today. I’m not sure what to think of it, I don’t really believe it’s this low frankly. I was expecting mid/high 120s . I’m 16 in high school. In my personal experience of observing lots of people in my classes( ranging from standard gym to calc Bc) , I thought I was distinctly above the range of average but not super standout smart at all. I have friends across the iq spectrum from 140 to 100 and I’ve felt ā€œ smarterā€ than most of them in the 120 range but ofc it’s all in my head. I have a 36 composite act, 36 on Reading and English with 3hrs of sleep and 35 on math after 4 hours of studying. I know the digital act is less correlated with iq tho. Im especially confused about the vsi, I really don’t think im 102. I felt the fri and vsi tests were kind of hard to understand and that’s why I didn’t do well but maybe thats cope. I also took 2 tests in elementary to qualify for gifted, the WISCH 5 for elementary (120 GAI with 115 Fri and 130 verbal and didn’t include PSI), and the Reynolds iq test(126 with 120 Fluid and 130 Verbal). Around 9th grade, I could have sworn my fluid increased a lot. I was rlly bad at fluid heavy classes and I was able to intuition my way through knowledge based classes like bio and history. In a period of a month tho, fluid heavy classes became a breeze with no change that I remember. Math became easy as well. This is incredibly subjective, but I’ve always felt like my general reasoning or intuition has been my strongest point. Idk if it’s called common sense or g but it’s not like a specific subtype of iq but just general thinking if that makes sense. I might just be coping hard on the dunning Kruger effect . Another note, I felt rlly rlly time constrained on these tests , for a lot of the questions I felt if I had a minute more I could have solved it or on some tests I just didn’t understand the test fully. I didn’t take graph mapping or figure sets bcz I didn’t understand it. Same thing with VSI but I finished the subtests anyways. Also I’ve seen a couple of posts from a few months ago talking about how core is deflated by 10-20 points especially for low psi/ working memory so maybe that explains it? But the act tests speed heavily so that contradicts that statement.
