Free IQ Tests

Evgheny Stivenson asked:


Do you feel heavy in your head when you walk around? Is your score in IQ tests too low? You may not feel as active or quick as early or you may be forgetting very commonly used words. This need not be the situation that cannot be dealt with. You can eat certain food items which will help boost your brainpower, clear up your brain and make you think at a quick pace.

Hence if you want to increase your intelligence level (and your IQ- your score in IQ tests) to the highest level read the information given below. It will help you clear up your brain and you will have great thinking power and ability to score higher in IQ tests. Your memory also depends on your eating habits.

Fish Oil

“Fish is a food for your brain” is an old belief. But nowadays fish is very polluted with mercuy and dangerous substances, so I will not recommend fish for consumption. Instead, I suggest to eat fish oil. It has fats which contain DocasaHexanenoic Acid and is beneficial for the brain and acts as a protective layer.

A majority of our brain is made up of fat and that fat is either DocasaHexanenoic Acid or Arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid is found in unprocessed dairy products like butter and DocasaHexanenoic Acid is found only in fish and not in any other plant or vegetation.

It is very important to use a fish oil which is exceptionally good and has good reputation. I have done research and have clinical with patients, which shows the following trends.

1. Liquid form of fish oil is far better than capsules.

2. Not all brands are good

3. Carlson’s brand is the best and purest of all existing brands today.

It may not be the only brand that is exceptionally good, but till now I have come across many and have found that carlson’s brand is the best as far as fish or cod liver oil is concerned. You can find this brand at Mercola.com or at any health store near your house.

Vegetables

Nothing can ever match the nutritions that pure vegetables can provide us. Alzheimer’s has been known to occur because of deficiency of folic acid (green vegetables are very rich with it). Similarly, there are many other elements, antioxidants and phytochemicals that vegetables provide us with and can help us in keeping our brains sharp.

The easiest way to eat enough of vegetables is to prepare vegetable juice on a regular basis.

But the type of your metabolism is a key factor to decide what all you need to consume. For example, if you are a protein metabolic type, you need not eat vegetables. You can have half of what is usually recommended. That is for a protein type adult, one can eat half a pound of vegetable and this will be sufficient.

If you are a protein type of guy your diet should consist of low potassium vegetables like beans. Lettuces and the usual diet like collard greens have high potassium content and may cause biochemical imbalance. Also, if you have a metabolic type you also don’t need much vegetable juice consumption. A carbohydrate metabolic type wil beneft if he consumes more vegetables like collard greens, kale, Swiss chard etc. These are very much not suggested for the protein types.

I do recommend organic food if you want to get the most nutritious input, but if you cannot afford to buy them, don’t give up eating vegetables altogether. Eating vegetables in any form, organic or not is good and better not have them in your ration at all.

Raw Eggs

The best source for high quality nutrition is raw whole egg. It is also very much affordable by all. It is especially for those who are protein deficient. You may face some difficulty initially to eat them, but you will greatly improve your health, if you eat raw egg. Boiled or cooked eggs will not result in the same, so the lesser you cook the egg the more nutrition you will consume.

If you are smart, then you most likely know that you are smart, and do not really need an IQ test to validate that – though you may not have proved your intellect to the world by making some earth-shaking discovery. Nonetheless, if you still want to check where you stand on the IQ scale in comparison to known geniuses, maybe just for fun sake, then an IQ test is perhaps the best available option at present.

There are so many different versions of IQ tests available that sometimes one doesn’t know which one to go for. Basically, they all test the same skills – logical reasoning ability, puzzle-solving ability, computational ability cognitive skill, three-dimensional visualization skill, etc. – using a variety of questions.

Your IQ score generated from these tests will tell you the level of your intelligence in comparison to others who have taken the same test. For example, if your IQ score falls in the top 2% range, it means that you are smarter than 98% of the people who have taken the same test. Wow! Doesn’t that make you feel good, even though in the depth of your heart you had always known that? Modern tests usually give an overall score instead of an average score and an individual personal best score.

Some tests are better known than others, such as the ‘Expert Rating’, which even gives a certificate showing your IQ scores. You can use this certificate to impress your potential employer when you are applying for a job. If you choose to do a decent test, not the ones meant for fun, the results could be used for professional purposes. Obviously, the ones that are free of cost and state that they are just for fun cannot be used for professional purposes, and they cannot be fully relied on either.

Simple IQ tests meant for fun sake rate your general intelligence level for nonprofessional purposes, say, as a pastime activity among friends. The more serious ones give a rating for intelligence that would be recognized by many employers for professional purposes. This kind of tests are quite reliable as they explore all kinds of brain activity, apart from non-intellect-based intelligence like emotional intelligence, body intelligence, intuition-based intelligence, creative skills, etc.

As the intelligence level of a person is constantly evolving with time, experience and knowledge, the IQ of a person cannot be described by a fixed number and can improve substantially with time. Of course, a low-IQ person will probably never turn into a genius one day, or vice versa; thus one can say that serious IQ tests do give a reasonably accurate idea of a person’s intelligence level.

So if you are looking for a somewhat intellectual pastime activity, pick up one of the hundreds of free IQ tests available online, and try to beat your friends at it. Or if you are serious about adding value to your professional resume, then choose a more serious paid one that offers a certificate showing your IQ score as well as what the test indicates about your special abilities.

Summary:

Professional IQ tests yield a fairly accurate measure of the intelligence level of a person. Some of them even give a certificate that can be used for professional purposes. Sometimes such a test can reveal your aptitude for things you have never attempted before. Simple fun IQ tests are a good pastime activity among family and friends.

Andrew asked:


The qualifying genius level is different for every intelligence quotient test, and they can not give a clear answer to the question what genius is. For instance, the qualifying genius level on the Cattell IIIB makes 148, putting in this way the genius into the eighty third percentile rank. On the Stanford-Binet a genius occupies the eighty sixth percentile rank, with a qualifying genius level – 132. So, we can see that the answers of these tests are discrepant, they can not be compared and consequently, they are not objective. Even in case if the intelligence tests were comparable and objective, the high intelligence quotient does not mean that a person is a genius, the same concerns the low IQ, it doesn’t mean that a person with low IQ mentally challenged. Though the IQ of Andre Massena, one of the most talented commanders of Napoleon’s army, was 103, Napoleon said that Massena was the greatest person of his military Empire. The IQ tests serve to define the functional level of intelligence; it is connected with the fact that they are not able to determine the conceptual capacity of the intellect.

This brings us to a striking realization. If intelligence quotient which is the most precise thing to measuring intelligence level, is actually not a reliable measure of mental power, then we have no way to measure the intelligence without having a doubt concerning the fact that somebody is a genius. Such factors as audience and altruism are not enough to give a concrete characteristic of a genius. These two features are more likely to indicate something else, something that is characteristic of every person: desire. Genius is the accomplishment of these desires, the desires to be admired, adored etc. If taking objectively, genius does not exist, because people are not born genius, they may become genius.
