i was so pissed cause i forgot it was coming on. i watched it 20 min in the show. i wanted to take the i.q. test to get a second opinion. i have already taken the test and i got a 143. i find that a little hard to believe. i thought the test on fox so fun actually. i enjoyed it! i am a dork. i love school!

I took the test and scored a 109.

I did really well with the comprehension, analogies, memory, and various shape exercises.
But, I did pretty bad with the math and story problems.

I took it. Those mirror shapes screwed me up. I can do math, but not mirror images.

I took an IQ test when I was a child so I know my actual IQ. It is much higher than the FOX score.

Fox should post that test online....

You could take the test online while the show was on.

I got a 115. My demographics either tied or scored the highest except for my eye color.

I got a 126. I took it with my mom and she got 3 fewer questions right but scored 3 points higher. I wish I got the same score when I was older, I would have an awesome Fox IQ.

Yes I watched all 2 hours and I got a 116.

I did better in math than I thought and I HATE math!

I don't think the test was very good. With Mary Hart of whoever that was talking through it, my hubby and I had a hard time concentrating. He got a 120, I got 126, but I don't think that's accurate either. I felt punished for being young. No fair that the older you are the higher score you get.

I wanted to skip class to take it, that tells you how dorky I am.

Turn that frown upside down, because The Grapist likes you see you smile.

It's my job.

ironically enough, it's almost exactly the same as when i was a kid. i got tested to see if i would be allowed to go into special activities class, but missed the minimum score of 120 by 1pt the first time and 3pts the second time.

i didn't like how it was done either. i couldn't concentrate either. and the time limit was not enough for some of the questions. most of them i was fine with only having x number of seconds, but hey.

i couldn't get online to take the test. it wouldn't let me so i had to just use the scorecard they provided.

i'm so happy to hear i wasn't the only one who took the test.
i am a little perturbed that i didn't get as high as some of you though.
