its something you take when you get in highschool. Its a requirment at most colleges. Its basicly a test that is used to determine your overall knowledge of all subjects. Which would tell over all how inteligent you are or at least how knowledable you are in most areas.

nothing was misinterpreted. what i said is what the psych said word for word. maybe you should stop assuming your the fvcking master of the WAIS

Never assumed I was the 'master', but I do know how the test is scored.

Why can't you use researched facts to disprove what I said instead of just saying I'm wrong with no supporting arguement besides what your so called psychologist said? If you did the slightest bit of research, you would see the test is scored on a strict bell curve. If you've ever taken a college course thats on a curve you should be familiar with them. A set number of people achieve each grade. This is just like the WAIS IQ test is scored for each age group. If every person in the population who is 21 takes the test right now, a SET number of people will achieve each score because its all in relation to eachother. Now lets fast forward 40 years when all the 21 year olds are now 61 year olds. Again, they all take the test. The same number of induviduals will achieve each score, thats the nature of the bell curve. This directly disproves your comment that as we age, our scores tend to move towards 100.

I would love to hear you counter these facts with facts of your own, but until then, please don't assume I don't know what I'm talking about.

the ACT? thats what i thought it was. colleges around here dont require it though. they ask for SAT only or SAT or ACT. so i never bothered with the ACT

its the worst 4 hours of your life. espeically if they make you adhere to the timed sessions (99% do.... they're all supposed to)

please please take the act, i could use the extra self esteem

ACT is much different than an IQ test, its all applied knowledge. What did ya get btw? I nailed a 30 my first go and since that was enough to get into any college around here, I didnt try for higher. I dunno if I could have improved, but I did run out of time on the math section //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif

i didnt bother proving your wrong, cause i already know im right. why dont YOU try to prove me wrong? i know its a bell curve, every1 knows its a bell curve buddy. but that does not in any way disprove what my psychologist says. saying that IQ levels out around 100 with age only further proves that 100 is the average. i know you think your right, but look at it. your just some kid with 3 psych classes under your belt. i got like 5 under mine and a psychologist to say the same.

oh god, i hate timed tests. thats what pissed me off on the SAT. prolly woulda got decently higher than a 1080 if i had a lil more time and i didnt crash my car on the way to the test
then again, the SAT is so flawed

32, math ***** me. im not that great at math so i figured there was no reason to try it again being as i maxed on everything else... i forget my exact math score. it was nothing to brag about though

im a sophmore fool!

You're an extremely young sophmore! Do you mean you have sophmore standing credit wise, but its your first year or is it really your second year in college?

i have no idea what juco is, but how did you get into college without a diploma?

I proved you wrong twice now!

You OBVIOUSLY dont understand a bell curve if you are continuing to argue this!

This is a bell curve for an IQ test scoring I found for ya Ryan,

This is what the results of EVERY age group's scores look like, from 18 to 80 years old and everything in between. Notice how there is ALWAYS the same amount of people achieving each score nomatter what age group. This easily DISPROVES your argument that as age increase, IQ tends towards 100. If I need to explain this ANY further, you must have some learning disability because this is getting ridiculous... I think every one who has viewed this thread understands this concept except for you.
