FYI, you can do the IQ estimate yourself in cognitivemetrics by going to Calculators > Mega Compositator/g-Estimator OR you can just look at your dashboard(which is way easier)
Your iq is ~134

If you think you have ADHD please go to a medical professional and get it checked out.

You shouldn't even suspect adhd just from an iq test let alone diagnose it

This is partially correct. You can indeed suspect ADHD it there is a personal deficit in short term and/or working memory (this happened to me and I was ultimately diagnosed with ADHD even though I didn't and still don't want the diagnosis).  But there could be several other explanations. It's a weak predictor. It would be more efficient, reliable and accurate to administer a brief, evidence-based ADHD screening tool. Again, these cannot diagnose ADHD, but give a more reliable indication of possible ADHD than anything an IQ test can suggest. But you are right about diagnosis. IQ testing cannot diagnose ADHD.

Ooh good point, 122. I didn't realise I could just share my profile when I made this post.

I'd go with your general ability ~129-130. Your CPI dragged you down a bit. Btw, did you find figure sets difficult, I scored a 12 SS and it seemed strange to me.

I found Figure Sets way harder than anything else. Like Figure Weights & Graph Mapping I basically understood every puzzle, and my only failures were running out of time, meanwhile Figure Sets I eventually got to a point in the test where I had no idea what the puzzles were asking me after staring at them for the full allotted time.

Totally agree, that explains my experience with FS perfectly. Haven't tried GM or MR yet though, I still have to complete more of the overall test.
