Originally, IQ, or Intelligence Quotient, was used to detect persons of lower intelligence, and to detect children of lower intelligence in order to place them in special education programs. The first IQ tests were designed to compare a child's intelligence to what his or her intelligence "should be" as compared to the child's age. If the child was significantly "smarter" than a "normal" child of his or her age, the child was given a higher score, and if the child scored lower than expected for a child of his or her age, the child was given a lower IQ score.
Today IQ testing is used not primarily for children, but for adults. Today we attempt to write tests than will determine an adult's true mental potential, unbiased by culture, and compare scores to the scores of other adults who have taken the same test. So today we compare an adult's objective results to the objective results of other adults, and determine how intelligent each test taker is compared to all other test takers, instead of comparing test takers to an arbitrary age related standard.
To find out yours, take a test:

IQ is the abbreviation of "Intelligence Quotiant." It determines your intelligence, in other words. You can determine your IQ on internet IQ tests, but be warned. Not many are reliable. Try Googling "IQ Test" or you can figure your IQ by checking your school report card grades and doing a series of calcuating (I am unaware of how to do this...) to find your average IQ.

Are you basing this on an information superhighway IQ try? moral Psychologist's do not supply out the decision that you attain on an IQ try because maximum folk don't realize precisely what it skill. you've an FSIQ (finished scale iq) of one hundred twenty yet you're lacking in some aspects and extremely sturdy in others, because of this the decision fails to grant you an finished expertise. that is comprehensible for a psychologist to inform you've been you're say 'vivid' 'time-honored' etc and grant you with adivice on your strengths and weaknesses, yet not for them to grant you the style of your FSIQ. to respond to the question in accordance to an information superhighway try i took over 2 years in the past i replaced into at 124, i imagine that it somewhat is incorrect inspite of the actuality that because i'm quite particular i'm of time-honored intelligence, quite in maths correct aspects.

you take an IQ test to figure out your intelligence quotcient (i'm not sure if that is speeled right or wrong...). anywho. you take the test and you'll be asked your age. like that really matters when taking the test and anythihng over 100 is good. but anything underneith it isn't that great.

There are tests that can tell you. Although there are many on the internet, they aren't very accurate.
