99% of this board has a higher IQ than Feynman. Feynman had an IQ of 125

>1 in 50
Despite what you attempt to handwave as a bias selecting against IQ on Veeky Forums, there are still thousands of users on the site. If we take 10,000, we should expect to see 200 people with 130+ IQ.

As slow as Veeky Forums is compared to other boards, I don't think it's some great statistical anomaly if we presume the average IQ around here is ~130.

He had a High Math IQ & Low Verbal IQ.

>empathized
The word you are looking for is emphasized. I know that isnt a typo, because that word is different in several different places. Take your sub 100 IQ back to /pol/.

I assume that my verbal IQ is low. But I'm not an English Speaker. English is my 3rd language. Lel.

Psychology is a Pseudoscience that rarely replicate. Just Saying.

Apparently you suck at pattern recognition too because you fucked up greentexting which has examples shown several times in literally every thread on Veeky Forums. Also verbal IQ isnt recognized as having anything to do with IQ because IQ tests aren’t supposed to rely on prior knowledge, but rather pattern recognition(which as stated before, you suck at).

Pro tip:
>This is how you green text.

This is not.

>This is how you green text.
I didn't intended to make green text
">" was just for spacing to avoid (you)r "Reddit Spacing"

Not buying it. Why not just format your post like every other post on Veeky Forums? Oh right, its because you suck at pattern recognition like other 80 IQ humans.

Veeky Forums in a nutshell

Psychologist here. Problem with psychology is that it is infested with "nonscientificly oriented people". I was shocked by some of students at university. Most of them were in to some sort of therapy nonsense some even belived in zodiac. You spend so much time learning about development of psychy and then go on believeing in that crap.
And it is not only students. I am working on my PhD and I had lecture in Social Psychology. I decided to check out one of researches mentioned in one of textbooks from USA...It was conducted on sample of 40 people. 40 PEOPLE!!! No replication attempt...nothing...and it is in the textbook. I never published my master thesis in any journal because I tough it wasn't important enough...and now I see what swill ends up published I kind of regret my decision

All sane Psychologist should start using more Biology, Chemistry, Medicine & Math

Becoming Neuroscientists. Neurocience is a Science.

Social Psychology doesn't replicate, is so biased & have so bullshit mixed into it that it can be barely considered science anymore.

The Best areas of Modern Psychology are closer to Biology & Chemistry.

And yet no one on this board will come even remotely close to his level of achievement.

Really concocts my coconuts.

Kind of agree. I believe that psychology is...cruch? Bridging the gap until other scientific fields figure out how to work on the human mind.
Unfortunately psychology is full of people fleeing "hard sciences". I was one of few students not intimidated by psychometry, statistics and similar and it gave me competitive edge and source of income (other students payed me to analyze their data)
I love social psychology. It has a lot of potential...when it is done right it has predictive value but unfortunately it was butchered and is still being butchered.

I feel no sense of superiority over my IQ, as I think IQ says nothing other than someone being good at IQ tests

No one believes Feynman's test was accurate. It basically couldn't have been. I can blow off a test and fail intentionally too, or not care. Feynman was always considered incredibly gifted as a youth. The idea that he really had a 125 IQ, just because that is the only test he took, is idiotic.

>nonscientificly oriented people

>currently taking intro psych class because of social science requirement [spoiler]and thinking about med school[/spoiler]

>literally first third of the class is just straight memorization
>not basic stuff like location and functions but full on memorization of conclusions from past studies
>most of which were on temperament and political attitude

Is this normal?

About 50% of the major scientific and math breakthroughs are done by people with 160+ IQs. To put that in perspective, that is rarer than 1 in 10,000. IQ isn't a myth.

This is false. Misspellings and certain grammar errors have little to do with verbal IQ. Feynman was a fantastic writer and was known to be incredibly quick witted. He had a very high verbal IQ. The test was a fluke.

IQ is not in that category.

He took the test in school as a youngin. And IQ can fluctuate in some individuals as they grow. And older IQ tests suck, they didnt really even test for g, they tested for crystallized intelligence. Im not knocking the correlation between IQ and fact based knowlege, Im just saying that he may not have given a fuck about reading books when he was a kid.

They still test for that. Also, there is research that shows highly gifted people develop into their full intellectual potential later in life than those with average IQ. I agree though, his score is inaccurate. Feynman is an utter genius

>Majority of the people on this board are 130+ range
Then why are most posters here so fucking stupid?

If you really were smart you would also be rich. Not every rich person is smart but every smart person is rich.

I believe what you say is true, but even if it were then I think that would more likely imply that IQ is bullshit.

>more than 1/3rd
>rarely

It feels good, man.

not every person that posts stupid things is stupid, believe it or not

I find similar ass pulling problems through out much of legit science too. People aren't autistic enough to care about doing things correctly it seems.

OP how does it feel to be dumber than Feynman?

I'm sure Feynmann couldn't do this:

neither could you my man

Wew

I have an IQ of 90. Feynman can go suck it.

Anyone who takes an IQ test is an insecure brainlet

>Majority of the people on this board are 130+ range
Are you implying that the tons of /pol/ shitposters here care about IQ tests, or will post their average/below average test result?

Are you implying that people with high IQ can't do "dumb" shit?
Are you implying that everyone shares your materialistic goals?

>99% of this Taco Bell-ass board thinks $100,000 is a lot of money

Feels good

COMPED

Jokes on you my IQ is 120.

Contrary to the neckbeard 'online IQ test' takers here on Veeky Forums I had two real life IQ tests officially administrated, one at 6 and scored 135 with 15SD, one at 10 and scored 134 with 15SD. However I scored much higher in the math/logical related sections then the vocabulary or reading one like 147 vs 121 or something, explains why I'm only a casual reader but avid mathematician and scientist
There's literally no purpose to get an IQ test unless it's clear your highly gifted or highly deficient and are trying to convince the school board to accelerate or give you extra help respectively, I got mine because I was so bored through elementary school I would do the grade 6's math homework at 5-6 years old and started mis behaving
Anyways IQ isnt that important, focus on emotional intelligence or just perfecting a field of interest.

Also worth noting I have genetic Narcolepsy, a severe form of it so that I'm probably one of the only people legally with a prescription on dexamphetamine on this board. I'm also on the autistic spectrum somewhere, psych didn't bother testing just knew I was aspie, since I was a teenager I learned to channel my autistic gifts and shortcomings into something worthwhile and to try to empathize with normie extroverted feeler types.
INTP btw for whatever scientific validity a self given personality test can give, very strong INTP as well like 80-95% in all the scales.

How long have you been learning english?

neuroscience is hardly a science; i'm tempted to put it up there with psychology

I am a native first worlder but I scantly talk to people, usually online or reading.
Truth is most people aren't worth talking too with the terrible education system the world has and terrible cultural values on learning and academia
Most young brilliant minds care about getting qualifications for wageslaving for big salaries rather then using their brains to benefit the research of science which benefits humanity far more then fake digits in an online bank account

my iq is 212 ama

sauce for those numbers?

kek

Confirmed IQ of 138 here. Lazy as fuck tho, since I breezed through elementary and high school without discipline and relying on what I remembered from lectures. Have big fucking problem as a theoretical physics student right now, can confirm high IQ doesn't mean shit if you have no discipline and work ethic whatsoever.

can you explain to me in brainlet terms IUTT?

Application of intelligence is important. The way the educational institution is run in America stunts effectively the population capable of making these breakthroughs.

Gifted institutions shouldn't even have the same code of suspension. Weather someone sucks the proverbial GPA dick, the place for smart people is with other smart people. I say once people make it to this advanced grouping, they should be catered to, allowing them to innovate without trudge of conventional schooling.

I have the same exact experience. Though I'm middle aged now. I finally figured out how to apply discipline when I was 30. Now I am 44 and I have lost it again. Strange shit.

I took it just for fun and to see which Problem Solving was proposed..
>every

Intelligence , learning ability, and problem solving capabilities are not fixed; they can vary (often improving) over your whole lifetime. The brain is highly plastic and can sometimes even reprogram itself to full functionality when it is damaged. On the other hand neither is it infinitely plastic – any given brain has a range of accessible capabilities and can be improved only to a certain point.
However, for people of supposedly “normal” intelligence and above, it is
by no means clear what that point is.

Intellectual heavy weights like Einstein and Feynman may be gifted, but sheer hard work and discipline is much more impressive than being born lucky. A personality that embraces difficulty and struggle might be even rarer than a high natural IQ.

i have an iq of 110\125.

First time i did the test i got 110. I was in shit shape and severly depressed.

Second time i got 125 and i was in better shape and slightly less depressed.

Second test was 6 months later. What is my iq?

also am i retarded?

>Sample size is all that matters

Ask me how I know you don't have a degree in statistics

GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER

Stop worrying about your IQ and actually do some shit, that's better than 'lazy intelligent' people.

I'm 115. 120 on good day when I'm not spleep deprivated and stressed tho'

yeah where are you getting this data?

>This many generalizations
Hard to believe someone so (moderately) smart as a child would alienate themselves based on horrendous generalizations! Oh wait, it isn't... Shake that disconcerting ego of yours, pal! The world ain't so bad :)

>cognitive and psychological misconceptions, the post

this proves that IQ tests are retarded, not that I'm any smarter than Feynman

whatever you say kike why dont you fuck off back to cnn

This just shows that IQ doesn't measure intelligence and that IQ is irrelevant

Whenever someone asks for my IQ or shares his own in a conversation I immediately think that person is stupid, no matter how high the digit is. I don't even know mine since I never tested and never will. Mensa members can suck my dick

IQ doesn't win you Nobel prizes and respect. Actual groundbreaking, incredible and novel work in a particular field does.
Feynman didn't just come into work one day, slam his dick on the table, boasted about a test score he did on club penguin and win the Nobel prize in physics for fundamental work in QED.
If you spend all day worrying or flaunting about your IQ instead then congratulations on making no impact on history.

Psychology is hardly a science, it's just a discipline (that goes for all social "sciences")

I once argued with a friend of mine over this shit, he studies Psychology and I study Astrophysics. Brainlet claims that Astrophysics is not a science because it has no practical application and that because of it's deterministic nature all natural sciences are not "science", he actually believes for something to be science it has to be subjective because he needs to make the decision
People go over so much brain gymnastics to feel they have the power and choice over their lives

>A personality that embraces difficulty and struggle might be even rarer than a high natural IQ.
This is why its so important to put some points into willpower instead of minmaxing your int at character creation

>Psychology is hardly a science
I agree. Social "sciences" are a bunch of contradictory flawed theories.

Even Economics & Finance that use more Math fails to predict or replicate most of time.

IQ is relevant, it is the single most important determining factor for someones capacity for success and financial stability

IQ also affects your processing speed

IQ does not denote your capability to be intelligent though since there may very well be different factors involved in your capability to utilize that IQ

I would be surprised if even 4% of this board was over 130.

At least reddit post correctly

nigga just pulled the numbers out of his ass.

>implying iq means anything
How does it feel being just a member of the flock

>99% of this board has a higher IQ than Feynman
that is precisely the feeling I get whenever I read Veeky Forums!

This truly is intellectual utopia

This counts?

7/10

None of that is an argument.

160 is the highest score on a valid IQ test you idiot. Scores above 145 tend to be statistically irrelevant.

Tfw I got 134 on an official iq test and I don't even know what a standard deviation is

>Low Verbal IQ.
>famous for being the most charismatic scientist ever

162 actually

Definitely need a source on this. Who tested Feynman, when was he tested? How many times was he tested?
