I did the Mensa IQ test online and I got an 88. I found it to be pretty discouraging and it has definitely affected my self-esteem. How can I cope with being retarded?

Damn. Those IQ tests usually inflated the scores so you'll buy their mensa shit too.
Damn you must be dumb.
What are some stupid things you do OP?

If it makes you feel any better, you're probably only half retarded. True retards wouldn't give a second thought about their intelligence, their genuinely just too stupid to care.
You're still a dumbass nonetheless, try leaving this website for awhile, read a book? Idk

That's another thing, I struggle a lot with reading comprehension. Any advice on that?

lacking intelligence doesn't mean you need to "cope" with it. you can still learn anything anyone else can. it just might take you more time, or need to be absorbed into your brain through different means.

Honestly, you could just go back to some basic ass elementary school principles. Find a book you wanna read and find the audio book for it, read along with the audiobook and whatnot. Simulate that "teacher reading to the class" scenario. You get they idea.

Did it bother you before you took this test? If not, then it doesn’t really matter. A test doesn’t change your life, you’re yourself regardless of what result you got.

I hope I can get to a point where I can manage to read them without relying on audiobooks to be honest, I want to stay away from electronic devices so just focusing on reading books would be ideal

Thank you Anons. I mean, I used to have somewhat solid arguments when it comes to debating about things I am passionate about but it did ruin my confidence. I used to feel pretty confident on my take on things and now I think that I'm just a dumbass and my opinion is worthless

>it has definitely affected my self-esteem
u failed at the one thing low IQ is supposed to give you. Over confidence.
Objectively speaking, I think IQ tests should be mandated because it would save a lot of people from making choices they shouldn't have made. If I knew I was 88IQ at 18, I woulda done MMA or just gone to lower trades and saved myself all the hassle of uni.
Use the constraint to liberate yourself from dreams that you should have never had. There are plenty of avenues in life to make money through honest grit and hard work that nobody is willing to do (think waste management)

The thing is that even if I'm stupid I am genuinely interested in ancient history and I would like to study archeology, but I think it's probably at odds with my intellectual capacity
Do you think it's hopeless?

A few years ago I got an 89 on one of those tests, and now I'm a physics major near the top of my class. Just ignore that bullshit and try as hard as you can.

Anyone can get a bachelors , especially from a no name university, a bachelors is mostly study technique and consistency and luckily for you , you chose a humanities which is mostly memorization and some relationship linking.
I dont think you should do it though , its a scam unless you have real family money or something. Just read a book and start a podcast or something

I mean I live in Europe so maybe it would be a bit easier with the uni stuff as it would be more affordable. It's still hard don't get me wrong but it does seem to me to be more accessible

Unironically practice IQ tests. Retake it and it will go up.
It's a metric that means fuck all.

Listen , the goal of this life is to live, if you have a slow brain, just make sure to find a place where you can get the benefits of a high speed brain.
If you can live with 88 IQ , then you are winning at life as much as the 145 IQ.

I would pay my entire life savings to have 88 IQ. It would be the best gift I could possibly receive in life.
t. 133 IQ

High paying jobs are entirely the result of charisma and connections both of which get harder to do the smarter you get, because you become more and more insecure and anxious as you rise above 110 IQ, until you hit 145 and become so smart you are too focused on your talents to care. 130 IQ is worse than having down syndrome.
