You CAN increase you IQ. That means you can increase your intelligence, not only your IQ number. However it is not easy.
Some tricks are easy. Get enough sleep, eat sensible, keep fit. Then you repair damage made through lack of sleep, lack of certain nutrients or lack of blood to your brain.
But there is more: Hippocampus is the learning center and it is a trainable as a muscle. It can grow new cells, and cells can die, so its size will increase or decrease in response to mental training. It is a slow process and there is a limit to how much you can improve that way, but it is possible.
So turn of your TV and playstation, and start reading books, playing chess, taking lectures and solving sudokus and crossword puzzles. You will learn more and be more prepared for IQ tests, but you will also increase the capacity of the hardware inside your brain.
You will be smarter.

Yes, an IQ score can increase, as it is just a number based upon questions and tasks on a test. Whether the innate ability of a person can increase is a different question. We can certainly grow and learn.

not really, IQ tests measure your intelligence, how you think about things, how you process information. You could work on some areas of intelligence, such as reasoning or deductive logic, but these tactics can only improve your score so much. Don't expect a big jump in the score.

IQ assessments are ineffective, human beings alter, some speedier than others, yet anybody adjusts. you won't be in a position to pigeon-hollow, or pin down that progression. this is properly documented that the greater you have in undemanding with the folk making the assessments(historic past, economic status, etc) the greater powerful you do, so this is not approximately IQ, this is approximately being like the writer of the try.

Mostly it's what you're born with. You can increase it slightly by studying, but not by much.
