Smart??????????????

Hi, I have an IQ of 165. Do you think I Am smart|||I have an IQ of 156. I've been tested twice - 25 years apart - when I took my GMAT to get into the UCLA Graduate School of Managment and my GRE to get into the CSULA Graduate School of Business in Accounting. I believe I got 654 on my GMAT and 655 on my GRE. I sent my GMAT to MENSA, and they converted it into an IQ of 156, and I was accepted into MENSA and MENSA International. And you know, I do some of the dumbest things! I really can't believe it sometimes! If you have an IQ of 165, you are very smart - according to the Intelligence Quotient testing methods of testing and what they measure. Nevertheless, they have come under a lot of criticism lately, accused of being culturally biased and narrow in scope and what they measure. EQ, Emotional Quotient is becoming seen to be very important, together with IQ. EQ measures whether you can remain calm and rational under stress and things like that. Albert Einstein was a pretty smart guy, and they say in grade school he couldn't tie his shoes, but I think he got over it. He was probably like the centipede who fell over and then couldn't remember which foot to start walking with. There are some broader concepts than IQ. IQ is not everything. What I mean is, how can you measure who is the best mother to her children? And what is the intelligence of a leopard? Presidents of the United States did not have the highest IQs by any means. IQ has limitations. Success in life is not determined by IQ alone. You have to have other qualities, like the ability to be criticized and shrug it off and the ability to fail and get back up and go at it again. As you can see, I am not giving you a completely flattering answer. But you're smart enough to differentiate flattery from having a true concern for you, not wanting to deceive you, and to give you an honest and truly supportive answer - to the best of my ability. We "smarties" also need social skills, a purpose in life that we feel strongly about, personality, sensitivity towards others and maybe last but not least, humility. Yea, you're smart. you're even smarter for raising the question.|||Dude i have an IQ of 212 so i am way smarter i have received perfect grades since high school, i have 5 honorary PHD's and I have the authority of a lawyer, professor in College for Greek and Latin, and in high school for every subject known, and i can speak 6 languages!!

|||Yes, you're as smart as me!





Now the question is, who's more of a smart-a$$?|||Sure you're smart...and where the hide is cracked, I'd say


it smarts there too!|||obviously not, if you have to ask people if you're smart because you have an IQ of 165.


yes, 165 is great, if that's what you're getting at.


personally, I have to doubt that you have that high of an IQ. Since 100-120 is normal to smart, and 140 i think is genius.|||did you take a standardized iq test or an online one?


if standardized, yeah you are a freakin genius!!
