Question

Help answer this question below.

The only IQ test I'v ever taken didn't have an option for people with less than a high school level education and at the time I had about a seventh grade education and it came up a 139. What do you think it my real IQ is?

    139. The tests are really designed around reasoning ability. Education, while handy to have, doesn't make a large impression in the overall score. Einstein blew my 145 away, yet his math during his school years was pathetic, mine was fairly good so there's a good example based on my own experience.
    I recall hearing or reading somewhere, that they're doing away with IQ tests per se, as they aren't considered as accurate as some of the newer methods of testing avaliable today.
