I.Q. Test
This test has been carefully designed to measure the general intelligence level of both adults and children 9 years or older. If you follow the instructions below, the test will give you an accurate rating of your I.Q.
A.INSTRUCTIONS
1. You have 45 minutes to answer the 60 questions. Do not exceed this time
limit.
2. Answer all questions. If you do not know the answer - guess. Guessing has
been considered in the scoring. Do not leave any questions unanswered.
3. If a question seems to have more than one answer or no correct answer at
all, pick what you consider to be the best of the choices given. These
questions are purposely designed to test your ability to think and reason.
4. If a child is taking the test the parent should make certain the child
understands the instructions and sample questions before he begins. If the
child is a very poor reader, the parent may read the test questions to him,
but he must not help him in any way with the answers. If the child is given
any help, the test score will not reflect an accurate I.Q.
B. SAMPLE QUESTIONS
Carefully study the following sample questions before beginning the test.
I. In some questions you will be asked to make a comparison.
The answer
is C. A circle which is divided into two parts can be compared to a square which
is also divided into two parts.
II. In some questions, you will be given
a group of five things. Four of them will have something in common; they will be
similar in some way. You will be asked to
choose the one which is not similar to
the other four.
Example: Which one of the five is least like the other four?
DOG - CAR - CAT - BIRD - FISH
The answer is car. The others are all
living animals. A car is not alive.
These questions may also have
designs.
Example: Which one of the five is is least like the other four?
The answer
is D. The others are all made with straight lines. A circle is a curved line.
III. In some questions you will be given numbers, or letters, which are
in a certain order. They follow some pat- tern of arrangement. However, one of
them will not fit. You will be asked to choose the one which does not fit into
the pattern.
Example: Which one of the numbers does not belong in the
following series?
1 - 3 - 5 - 7 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 13
The answer is 10.
Starting with 1, the odd numbers are arranged in order, 10 is
an even number
which does not fit in the series.
IV.There will also be some problems
which you will be asked to solve. These will not require any difficult math.
Instead, they will be testing how logical you are
- that is, how well do you
think.
You are now ready to begin the test. Read each question carefully
and write your answers on a piece of paper and compare your results with the
correct ones AFTER you have completed the test. You have 45 minutes.
Before you begin please note that this site is hosted for free by
Geocities through the Denmark website. This means that there is a limit to how many users can take the test simultaneously. Therefore, if you get an error message saying either the test
or, later, that the answers are not there, this is because too many users are
taken the test right at this moment. Please try again an hour later. I'm sorry
for the inconvenience.
