From earliest chilhood, I never concerned myself much with IQ as much as what I called "RV"--ruthlessness of vision --the ability to see things and describe things--as they are.
| I LOVE IT!!!
I was hounded as a kid for "getting such crappy grades for a kid with such a high IQ!" I concluded then, that either IQ was not a defining factor, or that something must be wrong with me.
When I began taking myself seriously (??age 10??) and decided not to 'honor' the negative opinions and expectations of others, I further agreed to reject the artificial societal structures, since they didn't look like they were doing any good for my parents, friends parents, or anybody else! (I've since adopted a few of them, but only out of neccessity!  )
By age 14, I had stumbled across this principle, only I never bothered to giver it such a cool name! --says Knothead as he begins to file off the serial numbers... |

That test isn't that accurate. I got a 176 when I feel more like a 135.
IQ tests are all inaccurate, IMO.

what is deemed AVERAGE in terms of IQ?
| It really depends on whether you're referring to the internet world or the real world. In the former, it hovers around 150. In the latter, it is somewhat lower.

The problem with that test. Is that it only included stuff that I am good at; patterns, memorizing, and 3D visualization. If they asked questions like "Please explain the blah blah, blah blah blah in three paragraphs or less". I would have fell asleep before I finished reading the question. I was expecting at least some math questions.

You could be a garbage man and be a freaking genious.
