Just look at what have you done in your life so far. The most reliable and cheapest IQ test there is. Being brainlet is more often a cause of not putting enough hours in whatever you're trying to accomplish.
▶ No.939867>>939869
See if any psychologists, etc, in your area will give you one. You can also volunteer for a psychology study at a nearby university (they might give you an IQ test for that).
Also, don't study for an IQ test. That's a form of bias and will make the score higher inaccurately. If you take one test, taking more than one test will make any scores on later tests inaccurate (re-testing bias) from any familiarity with the test.

It doesn't really matter. There's different kinds of tests that scale differently, and there's going to be variation between tests (both of the same type and different types). The entire thing is just a speedrun through questions intended to test your intuition. You can "study" for it but if you don't have a strong grasp of language skills you're going to be slower and worse at it regardless.

What does it mean if I have ~ a 20 point delta between my highest and lowest scores? All three tests were professionally given at 12, 17 and 23 years of age. IIRC, the difference between you and someone you consider stupid is about 15 points, so this kind of scares me a bit.

Children have very volatile scores. Once you hit around 20 you regress to some norm. IQ tests in general have several point volatility. 15 points is 1SD for IQ and 20 point delta is very strange.
▶ No.939889>>939914

That's what I was thinking. My scores at 12 were well above average, but by 17, I dropped to just about average. I expected some normalization, but 20 points is scary.
I think it was chemical. My mom had me on Ritalin from 11 to 14 and Aderall from 14 to 16, when I took refused to take them any more. My score at 23 was higher than 17, but still not back to where I started. I'm scared to test again. I'm failing college and can't seem to be able to get out of the house in the mornings without fucking something up.

No, a reliable IQ test is administrated by a psychologist, I don't know the price in the US, but in my country it wasn't that expensive if you have a job.
I don't recommend any internet test.

IQ tests has been used by the military for about for about 100 years now, since the 1900 if I'm not wrong.
And IQ is the best single predictor of life success.

▶ No.941168

> I still got triple digits
You're supposed to get triple digits just by being a normal person (100 is the median average for a white), unless of course you're a member of some subhuman race (nigger, spic, abbo), then it can be drastically lower (even below 70).
The 10th grade education won't affect your IQ result, the better ones are just pattern recognition that you don't study for, there is no prep. A near starvation diet isn't optimal though.

very low IQ
disability and unable to intentionally hurt others aside from their disability and sharing of pain
low IQ
live happy and sad
no great worries
no imagination of pain but able to live normally
medium low IQ
live normal
may hurt others for their own but that's normal
nothing interesting
average IQ
live normal maybe achieve more than the all the latter
high IQ
positivity and able to earn/achieve more than anyone else
fulfill their and other's desires be loved for what they do
very high IQ
suffer from imagination and wear from thinking of the future and possibilities
choices become burden
the purpose and what the cosmos entails
suffer from being aware that all people is about desire and having fun
though you are able to stand higher above those lower than you but stuck in a stalemate position atop a soapbox but only to question why is the self even there...
suffer from not knowing and 'why'
crying
very very high being
do not suffer the problems of the latter.
have experienced the supernatural that draws a line between them and others who haven't seen/sensed
drawn to or knows the real mystic arts and have been communicated
have probably seen arch/fallen/angels, UFO, or something 'strange' that their memories would try to bury forever (not forced kundalini activation from childhood molestation like what the elite royalty sub-families use).
highly likely awakened and aligned chakras.
able to draw knowledge from foreknowledge, akashic records, hall of spirits
scrying not crying
