Who the heck brags about having an IQ of 120?

>An IQ of 120 is considered to be in the 91st percentile, meaning it is above average. This indicates that a person with this score has a higher IQ than approximately 91% of the population

Much like penis size and height, these statistics have been shown to be UNDER-inflated much to the bemusement of the blackpill community.

We work in extremes, anon. You are a genius or retarded. You can't be average, you can't be okay, you can't even be slightly better, you need to be the best or you're worthless

My IQ is supposedly 135 if over 90% of the population is that dumb we're fucked but it would explain a lot.

120IQ is a lot rarer than you would expect. A person with an IQ of 120 would be smarter than ~7511765236 of people on Earth. If you find it unimpressive or stupid to brag bout, you're right, but you're probably also a lot closer to 100IQ than you want to believe.

IQ tests are designed around the fact that the median is 100; it just so happens that the score follows a normal distribution. What do you mean by UNDER-inflated'? It's just basic statistics.

Administered IQ tests have put me around the high-130s, low-140s mark. Try having an actual discussion with a normal person and you will see how... "differently" they think to yourself. A coworker of mine, a fairly intelligent man with a degree, genuinely could not believe that I am able to reason myself out of emotional reactions. It shocked him that I am able to intercept my emotional reaction, have an internal discussion with myself, then diffuse AND defuse the anger, sadness or schadenfreude that is burgeoning inside of me.

Normal people are not "stupid" or "inferior", but they generally don't have quite the same level of internal reflection and dialogue as you would expect them to, and they are rarely able to project themselves into situations that they haven't personally experienced before. Of course, in real life I never talk about my (apparent) intelligence, since who really cares, but it is quite interesting.

I also never talk about my IQ of 128 IRL, but people notice. 8 of them so far have called me smart or of superior intelligence, including a professor in university.
I'm also very good at restraining my emotional reactions and I've been called stoic by coworkers, because I don't start swearing at the smallest inconveniences possible. I also tend to figure out stuff very quickly and am very high energy. Recently a superior of mine who was training me was shocked at how many ideas I had about how to do something and he proceeded to ask me if I've had coffee (I never drink coffee). In the same session, he didn't fully show me how to do something because "you can figure it out, you're a wise guy", lol.

It's a twitter meem, some guy started (jokingly?) putting his IQ of 187 along with his height on his handle and other people copied him by putting their (frequently made up and often ridiculously low or high) IQ scores and/or heights on their handles.

I know I'm hifhly likely to be a 100IQ midwit but I never got the whole "can't place themselves in hypotheticals" bit. Even when talking to others they seem capable of it, I'd say I use the inability to do so as a voluntarily dishonest argument to piss off my friends when I know i'm wrong more than anything

Tested 131 like 11 years ago for accessibility stuff for college. I think it's the only reason I am capable of the things I am and was able to be self taught. Despite that I am a complete dunce foe everything else which makes me feel like I'm not that smart. Just a trick I trained to do. Yet it comes so easy to me while many others just don't even attempt to try. I don't get it.

Autistic retards

IQ its self is practically worthless, many autists have above average IQ but no major accomplishments. Why? Because all IQ means is that you can process patterns faster. A skill completely useless on it's own

Yes because most don't actually do anything or apply themselves to anything. Which is sad because they can do something if they had some passion in something.

Well they were "training" us to work on manufactoring equipment and construction yards, but the idea that you are magically garunteed a job just because you went to school for it is total bullshit, most people just normiemaxx their way into careers.

Yeah I know I didn't get my degree. I get work from word.of mouth since I repair electronics. Soon I am getting my certs which will grt me jobs because they need techs who actually know what they are doing. College just gave me a little more to fill in some gaps and I got some nice little peices of gear so happy I went anyways. Still most do not do anything with their degree while I've been working in the field before I have even received it. College doesn't help much at all but a portfolio of all the crap you've done is so much more helpful. While I don't have a degree having a collection of everything I've done shows I have the experience. Though they still get anal about being certified and won't let me apply unless I have them despite the experience. Quite frustrating but that will be solved soon.

Can anyone tell me if the raven's progressives(the online mensa ones) have been accurate for them. I have given those and get ~130(+/-2) consistently. I know those aren't the industry standard these days. Could someone with an official iq compare there scores with those for me.

>>82992666
points out, it's a lot rarer to be even low-grade smart than people appear to think. Try not to get too up-your-own-ass or conceited about it, but you really are surrounded by idiots, and spaces like this can skew what your sense of normality or the average is.
For the record, I don't even disbelieve most of you when you claim IQ's in the 130-140-ish range. I see no reason to disbelieve it based on the conversations I see take place on /r9k/. It's not like somebody has to be lacking resentment to be high IQ.


>>82992659
Yeah nah, it's actually a fucking terrifying realization. If you're ostensibly that bright, and you still feel inadequate in the face of things, and everyone else is, on average, even *less* equipped to deal with things than you are, then yeah, you should worry.

>>82994586
Again, you're allowed to feel stupid. That's just you not falling victim to Dunning-Kruger. You're being objective and feel confused and inadequate. A real idiot would be more self-assured.
