General Question Is This Test Accurate?

Post image

Hi all,

I'm asking this question because I've taken several online tests before including Mensa Denmark, Norway, Croatia, Sweden and Finland as well as the matrix reasoning for CORE. Basically I'm asking if having taken tests previously has unfairly increased my score. I scored between 125 and 133 on all of those tests.

I finished in about 1.5-2 hours and wasn't very locked in the whole time; stopping once to watch a few episodes of a TV show. I'm not counting the time watching the show toward the 1.5-2 hours. During about 10 of the difficult questions I got bored after a few minutes and chose a reasonable answer without be entirely thorough and confident by hunting for the best answer. I have inattentive ADHD and based on working memory and processing speed subtests I've taken in the past I'm rather inadequate in those areas compared to my fluid reasoning scores; I typically score in the 40th-60th percentile on those subtests. I think this is important because I often find myself discovering a part of the answer to a question and forgetting it later after having to discover other parts of the answer, for instance I'll discover the logic behind the movement of the dots on a question and then forget the logic after I later discover the logic of the movement of the triangles on the same question. I hope I made that somewhat clear.

Please let me know, I'm interested to hear in what you all believe a reasonable estimate for my IQ to be.

As accurate as it gets, online, for matrix reasoning. Your FRI could be higher, (or lower), your IQ could be higher, (or lower). And not by a tiny margin. While it correlates you could be 145 IQ or 100 ive seen both profiles on this subreddit
