I'm losing my sanity over this one

For the love of Raven someone solve this one pls

Seems pretty straight forward, you can assume that bubbles on the outside are positive, and the ones inside are negative,

You add the neighboring ones to get the 3rd, it works for both columns and rows. Answer is 5.

How does one go on to describe a braindead easy question only to give the wrong answer. Its 2

Not op, but If.this is all there is to IQ tests then holy is psychology a joke. You mean to tell me that our objective measure of intelligence is basically arithmetic with pictographs?

wait what the fuck do you mean
5+(-3)=+2
??????
or you fuckinG kEKing me

I am taking the bait because I don't wan't a fellow brainlet(OP) to get more confused over this.

3rd row:

5 + (- 3) = 2 (bubbles outside)

3rd collumn:

(-1) + 3 = 2 ( bubbles outside)

hence the answer is the 5th option.

it's 5

I guess its testing pattern recognition.

I don't understand this boards obsession with IQ tests but if someone really can't find a internally consistent rule set for this example, they might actually be clinically retarded, sorry OP.

t. brainlet.

5

iq was meant to test for retardation. here's what we know
OP couldn't solve it
most people that replied could
the question is easy and you'd have to be near retarded if you cant solve it
here's what the test tells us given OP couldn't solve the question
OP is retarded
I think the test's result is pretty reasonable given what we know.
