People so desperately want a way to objectively rank themselves against each other that they'll believe IQ is a good way to measure intelligence because their ego needs it to be true.
I've taken informal ones on the net and came out in the 135 - 140 range, IIRC.
I expect I'd do noticeably worse on a real test.
I share that as context for the fact that I'm skeptical of IQ as a useful measure of intelligence.
I don't think that skepticism is because I'm embarrassed by my lack of an official score or that my unofficial one is too low.
> Savant sees IQ tests as measurements of a variety of mental abilities and thinks intelligence entails so many factors that "attempts to measure it are useless".
