IQ?
You're not dumb.
Not everyone tests well.
Also, if you're sleepy, bored, restless during the test-- you won't do as well, anyway.
I know some tests offer prep classes, too-- I'd look into enrolling before you retake it.

How did you come to know that you have an IQ of 102?

155 is average.
No it's not. 155 is above average smart one.
It's the fluoride in our water and the modified foods we eat that are decreasing our mental function

No it was a formal one. I took it a week ago and got the results yesterday. Showed my professor and he said it was a bit lower than expected from most people my age.
Its not so much the score, but using it to the best of the ability that counts.

Feck off. What is up with you blowhards showing off. You weren't even really tested, that's online.
And Rabbit too.
I guess this thread was supposed to be an AWWW you'll be okay son ...my bad for calling you a loser...SON in this life it's not the IQ, but who you SCREW.
Take for example our great x leader George W Bush.

Hey CC I didn't want you to sugarcoat it. I'm glad you said that. I'm not looking for sympathy, I'm looking for ways to improve my IQ and to find out if 102 is below my average standards. But thanks CC, that actually helps for real. 🙂
CC for gawds sake don't always take me so seriously
i don't even think blogthings has an iq test lol
also, they generally test learned rather than natural IQ... So if you are a good student with a good memory, then you have an advantage...

As long as you can play guitar like Ted Nugent, you're solid in my book.
Which kind. Electric, bas, or Acoustic? I'm pretty good at Bass.

Sniper...none of your posts that I've read strike me as those written by a dumbass.There is intelligence and organized thought process behind them. Yes, you're young and I can see you have much to learn, but...
Fuck that test. Go out and be a boss.
Well..... some were stupid and didn't make sense. But those that did, I wrote some of those when I wanted to know what people liked or I was just bored. But some of those that I did put intelligence and thought behind got misinterpreted and took it as an offense (like the time I said my Virgo ex got a sex change. I wasn't lying about that, that was for real, and it was a shocker cuz he/she looked familiar and they denied all info of their past). But I see what ya mean man.

Just imagine being able to go down to your garage, empty house and just playing that over the speakers. The Life.
True dat. I usually just have to go over to my friend's house for a session, if not. I just play unplugged so I don't disturb my neighbors below me.

"Beluga whales have a large forehead, a sign of their high intelligence. Beluga whales are, in fact, the smartest animals on earth with an average I.Q. (intelligence quotient) of 155, a level that would be considered near genius in humans."155 is average, smart one.

Awww honey it's those who think they don't amount to anything that work the hardest and achieve the most. Believe me. It's those who think they're the smartest that never make it, i've witnessed that too often....
insecurity sometimes fuels greatness and then comes confidence, you'll get there.

this. Like Abraham Lincoln and many others who had deep insecurities and kept getting pushed down, and still were able to get up and do it again.
so many people who are super smart/intelligent feel that they don't have to work so hard, while the hardest workers are the back-breaking blue-collar workers who are the support and muscle of a country.
they're the ones that get there through blood sweat and tears.
OP, 102 is fine. it's average, and i.q. is nothing if you're a mean son of a bitch.
The whole problem with IQ tests is that they test specific skills. It is not all encompassing.
I'd like a "real life shit" test to try my hand at. My scores fluctuate a lot in IQ tests and in EQ tests.
I wouldn't worry unless you were somewhere around 90.

Read.Read outside your interests and field.
Read classics.
+1 billion.
You will not only develop vocabulary, you will immerse yourself in that world and will be able to draw parallels easier. Kick ass vivid imagination comes with the territory.
The genre doesn't matter at all. Find some book to lose yourself in.

I wonder what his IQ is. 100 is average - 100 always reflects the average performance of the sample of test-takers, so at 102, you're perfectly normal.
If everyone scores what used to result in a score of 150, then gradually that becomes set to 100 to reflect the average level of performance.
So you're probably smarter than you think.

i haven't seen him do the "you're = your" mistake. Even my husband freaks out at that. The other day, we watch this show where this gal texts her bf and makes the mistake of you're = your that alot of people do, and the use of "an" over "a" ....first thing he said, "she made TWO mistakes!" then i added, yup. I saw that -- the you = you're. Ugh. Then he said, don't forget the a = an.
oh yeah, you're right honey bunchkin pie.

Intelligence is as much the effort you put into something as it is what you naturally have.
This is false.

You can achieve a lot more in life with a good work ethic than you ever can simply by having a high IQ.click to expand
This is true.
well....all talk and no walk is just talk right? good intelligence goes to waste if it's not applied. And that's just the way it is.

This why it is so regrettable that possession of intelligence does not compel its use.
IQ tests are for people who like to see big numbers proving how great they are.
"Intelligence" doesn't mean anything. You have potential from being extremely good at one thing to being about average at absolutely everything, but there's no test to prove that, beside the test of life itself and what you do with what you have right now.
I have a IQ of 109. I felt pretty bad about it before, but really, it's just a number from a test, what value does it have in comparison to your whole life's achievements, efforts and challenges?

Is it normal to have an IQ of 102? I feel like I'm dumb, or I've just been pretty down in the dumps lately. I want to do way better than this because my professor told me that's a bit low for college standards. I want to know what I can do to improve my average intelligence because at the moment I feel like an idiot. I have a lot on my plate at the moment.
