The only aspect of the IQ that I think would be related to mental age would be the verbal component. A kid who can spin around blocks in his head really fast and remember a chain of 12 numbers is still just a kid genius, not a 40-year old in disguise.

Huh. My mental age is 36 according to the test, but my real age is 18 (well, 19 towards the end of the month.)

Oh just saw the link, according to this test my mental age is 46.
And I’m 17…. That’s 29 years of age difference.
I feel good about how I’m dealing with my life this way.

Lemme calculate again, we said IQ was mental age decided by you’re [biological?] age multiplied by 100.
This way, 100(46/17)= 270
This is incorrect.
The mental age test is inaccurate anyway.
Taking a look back at numbers at the lab:
IQ1 = Avarage IQ
IQ1 = 100 or 120 ; biologicalage1 = 10 ; mentalage1 = 12
IQ/100 = mentalage/biologicalage
The inaccuracy here = -20
Mine would be:
IQ2 = x or y ; biologicalage2 = 17 ; mentalage2 = 46
IQ2 = 250
Still unbelievable.

I’m 17.
I usually get 124 on IQ testes.
This means, 124*17/100 Nearly = 21.
I’ve always wanted to calculate my brain’s age.
But I have trouble with IQ tests..
My family says I talk big, talk like a book, nonsense ..etc

If you're 16 or older you're supposed to multiply by 16. So that means 124*16/100 = 19.84.

You’ve got the number wrong.
I don’t know my IQ, I just know my age = 17
Also according to this test, my mental age is 46.

Oh girl, you cannot simply put the result of that silly online teste into the IQ equation...

"Your IQ is, basically, your mental age divided by your actual age, multiplied by 100", it says. That means:

IQ = MA/AA * 100

To calculate your mental age, you have to change the equation:

MA = IQ/100 * AA

In your case:

MA = 124/100 * 17 = 21,08

Edit: I just saw you already did the calucation on an earlier page I did not read.

:laugh: 55 years old now (at 31)...

really thought I'd be younger with my hatred of ironed clothing, love of speeding and complete lack of interest in other people's medical issues (and the fact that I would so laugh if someone farted at a funeral)

but then again... going out is punishment, talking on the phone is hideous and I routinely ask the man to turn down the volume on the tv or music because I can't think if the sound vibrations keep tickling my ears :thelook:

Poor boy, my IQ is not 120.
That was the IQ of a normal 10 yrs old human.
I compared the results.
Try reading them again, the results make no sense.

We have a 10 years old kid, the IQ is 120.
The IQ of a normal person is either 100 or 120.
No, it says the IQ of a 10-year-old kid with the mental age of 12 would, by virtue of the mathematical equation, be 12/10*100 (= 120) or 120.

Oh, there are tests, apparently. But not online ones that he knows of that are well respected and scientifically valid.

But this one's quite fun. I scored 47 :)

47 is a bogus result from a bogus site called dumb.com for a good reason.
