What is your IQ (if you have taken any test sometime in the past). I took only some crappy online test and didnt really pay attention to him or did some preparation, did it twice, once got 131 once got 134.
Even when the IQ test is discussed if it really reflects the inteligence of person, still, just for curiosity, did you test, whats your score?
I assume it should be pretty high for a bitcoin interested person? I think majority would be in the 120+ field?

I scored in the 140s a few years back but it's been a while...
For the business and MBA folks out there, I *did* do the GMAT and got a 640 on the first try, though. It's not super great, but it's much higher than average.

I don't really think online IQ tests are a very good indicator of intelligence, to be fair.

They aren't, most of them involve maths questions and I'm pretty shit at maths.

As far as i know a real iq test is universal so you can take it, asia man can take, man in africa living in a cage can take it... thats the real iq tests, no math or language skills needed really... But yeah i agree that online tests arent the most reliable tests (even the ones that look ok), but its still the best test i took, the best place would be to go to your local mensa club and try a test there (or in any other place that is certificate to do so) but who has the time/(maybe money) or mainly interest to go to such places.

That's the same with me, yet weirdly I am actually capable of programming >_< I just have to take my time with it and make sure I understand it all.

Programming doesn't really involve much complex math. Basic knowledge can get you very far.
But I do think any intelligent person would have to have a decent comprehension of maths.
You may well be right in that as maths is used in almost everything and is used to explain a lot. Physics is directly linked which in my opinion both are the most interesting and needed subject in the world.

We are all equally smart, though we all have different levels of awareness.

nah we're not all equally smart. men are born equal, even though that would be convenient to say.
i am a person of average intelligence, but that's okay.

Maybe not as equally smart as each other, but as a species we're definitely very intelligent, even the stupid ones who aren't any good at maths ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) .
