Whether you believe it or not is up to you and is of no consequence to me.

"Should" should be "sound". Today is not my day.

And I was being sincere. I believe you.

I figured it was a general typo-fail and not a legitimate spelling error, which is why I ignored it.

Internet tests are a load of crap, and inaccurate, regardless of how "unbiased" a internet test is. Anyone with a psychology degree or oriented in psychology will tell you that. A IQ test has to be an official test, and given by a licensed, trained professional who interprets the test. Also, I took this test and it's NOTHING like any IQ test I've been given by a psychologist (I've had 2, at age 6 and age 14, and my IQ is over 160) and they don't "time" a test and give you only 40 minutes to complete it. That said, I always get a much lower score on internet IQ tests than what my actual score is, and I know people who've been tested in actual life and have very average IQ's that get a genius level score. I find this thread to be very ignorant, and uneducated. Also, Astrology can't really predict or dictate IQ, or intelligence.

Quoted for truth. I had an iq test given to me 2 years ago when i was tested for szicophrenia (long story, and no i don't have it). I was scored at 147. Which is ironic because that is the score i got when i had an iq test at 9 years old. I did below average on short term memory recall. But i cream 3D spatial understanding. As i said earlier things even out in the end. one of my old teachers said to me that i am a conceptializer which is 100%true. The more i can make logic leaps as i like to call them the better i do.

In the end though iq only tells part of the story. My mom has an iq of around 115, but has a photographic memory and can paint so well it's almost discernable from a photograph.

P.s. Sorry for typos. Im using my ipod touch and i am sitting in an airplane somewhere over tennesee haha. Yay inflight wifi!

Awww I'm sorry, I guess this was a bit of a troll topic. I was hoping one member in particular would take this test because she called everyone with a Mercury in Pisces or Sagittarius STUPID. At least this thread proved that a Mercury in Pisces and a Mercury in Sag can outscore other Mercury placements on what is supposed to test linear, logical thinking which, astrologically speaking, Maira and I should be the lousiest at.

As far as I can see, this test is just flawed in the respect that it does not take age into account.

Hey YoursTrulyAlways, if you're so smart then this test should be a piece of cake to you.

Mods, please close this topic and ban me for trolling!!!

i do too i just saw that there are some aspects that help with deep thinking and creativity

i hardly belive there is a "stupidity" posotion in the zodiac

I took this IQ test and I received a 105...but I finished it in five minutes.

I've taken another IQ test before that was different and received 145. It was an official one and I paid for it. Not exactly sure what to believe here...

mercury conjunct uranus.

How is this possible when you posted this reply ~30 mins after I bumped this thread up, and the timer doesn't allow you to submit it before then?

Ditto @Chironrising. Maybe you should re-check your so-called studies on Moon-Uranus having ADD and Mercury-Uranus being a genius lols

Lalalinda, you better close this and ban me before I start getting mean, cuz I hate liars.

That's it, I'm officially done with this astrology cr@p!

It's pure science all the way for me from now on. Because scientific people aren't delusional about themselves and can handle the TRUTH.

Obviously it was a hyperbole...I did finish it twenty minutes early though....also, this "IQ" test is rather lopsided...I'm used to having a variety of questions from different areas...although I don't make tests...I'm seeing this test as only one area....feeling it out intuitively...

But yes...officially my IQ is 145....according to the test which cost money to take....and is used as a benchmark. Although I wish I didn't tell you because it's always a lose lose when I do....I have to be honest and maintain integrity.

Regarding...the significance of that though? Doesn't mean much.

This test however, the one that I just took at finished 20 minutes early - that means it took me about 19 minutes to finish more or less...I ran to make coffee on the last two questions....is only testing one faculty or two at best...instead of all five or six...whatever the general is..

I also guessed the last ten too....it was incredibly one sided for an iq test....iq tests are supposed to test the full range of mental activities.

CapricocoAquarioile...

Those aren't my studies...those are published by astrologers far superior in knowledge to you and me.

Also capricarious..explain this...mecury conjunct uranus in sagitarius = philosophical genius or insane clown...

Every philosophy class I had at the university the professor let me teach...it wasn't even my major...

this isn't about me though...it's about astrology...and how real it actually can be in the 3d realm of every day life, which many people are stuck on...but astrology transcends that 3d and goes to 4d..too..and 5d...6d...etc....

But real life examples taht have only happened to me out of almost an entire nation of people always confirm it for me...for example....not only was I teaching philosophy as if I knew it in a previous life simply on my own merit and presence...I am able to see taht everything is philosophy...even science..the scientific method is a proof based on philosophy...the science part is the actual knowledge of matter, but the method itself is philosophy...and even knowing is philosophy, therefore without philosophers perpetually being 100 years ahead of the mainstream...the 100 years down the liner science buffs wouldn't know a thing...just works that way...you can study it on your own...that's not my theory however...so segueing with me is mute...I'm trying to stir you up a bit it sounds like your stagnant. Not many people realize this...though, that all the great people, albert einstein, tesla, kennedy, abraham lincoln, all these people knew philosophy first and everything else second...even jimi hendrix...even ben stiller...before comedy...knows philosophy first.

You, because you reported some random score before the timer on the test ran out. WHY WOULD YOU LIE ABOUT THAT?

The kids on that gamer forum on the original link had no problem putting up screenshots of their scores.

It appears from this thread that people who are drawn to this "science" can't even seem to take a simple test. Perhaps there is something to astrology, but if it was developed by personalities such as yourself, then there goes my faith in it. NOT to be trusted.

And Chironrising: You name-call a lot, don't you. First "BigPygmy" and now all kinds of variants and permutations of my sn, as though that gives you more credibility than simply posting a screenshot of your score on a stupid little test. How impressive.

Chiron - Did you mostly study/teach analytical philosophy subjects or continental as well?

The IQ test? Or Astrology?

Everything is basically 'developed' by people like you & I & your next door neighbour.

It's definitely true that many people get different scores on different IQ tests. The paid test would be the most reliable.. and I don't think anyone needs to prove anything. We are online - so it's a bit silly. I mean they could take a screen shot of anyone else's result... if they really wanted to lie about theirs.


For example...
---------

Hey Lookit me... I'm a flipping genius!!



PS. I didn't actually take the test

Protesting is one thing, and as you can see, I've had nothing much to say to those who did.

But why do you suppose domm and Chiron lied or exaggerated? I was about to let this go in peace until they piped up with their lies.

Most everyone had no problem copying and pasting their Pullen results, even though those could easily have been faked as well.

Just one more reason why astrology isn't taken seriously.

If you really did take the test, then that further proves astrology means jack, because your Mercury is in Fall and yet your score is superior on a test based on linear logic - Mercury's domain.

I've seen amowls comment that the brightest person she knows has a Pisces Mercury, and the same is true of me. So wth???

You don't need to answer because I've had enough. All this self-denial from those two was just the icing.

Lalalinda, apologies. I'm leaving the building.
