True but (and don't let it go to your heads people ) I think the average ATer is well above average intelligence.

As for me, 99th percentile on standardized tests.

I think what people term "common sense" or "street smarts", and such is really just the ability to relate to the average person and build a little on that - ie. people who're above average enough to be considered socially or street 'smart', but no so far removed that they can't relate to the average person - in which case they obviously wouldn't be considered intelligent in that regard. The average millionaire's IQ is only 120, for example, since making that much money relies on relating to people, for the most part - for instance I would never have guessed that the average person would be entertained by something as intellectually devoid as reality TV - but someone, likely with an IQ well below mine, did... and we all know how it has unfortunately caught on On the other hand high IQ is common (necessary, really) in fields such as scientific research where true intelligence is a priority instead of merely an ability to relate to the common man.

I guess it's good to have high self esteme if you don't have a clue to your own intelligence level. LOL, I'm average with an IQ score of 880

 

[NuclearNed]

Above average, but it really depends on what time of day it is.

 

[moshquerade]

[BespinReactorShaft]

I usually score in the top percentiles of any standardized tests I've taken. However, I've never really believed I was above average in intelligence, because I refuse to believe that most people are dumber than I am. It just doesn't seem possible, considering some the choices I've made.

Except for ATOT. ATOT is full of idiots. :laugh:

 

[virtuamike]

My smartness is enhanced by the fact that I surround myself with idiots

Where is the option for "I am Uber, but I lack any common sense?"

 

[Slappy00]

im smart im my areas of expertise, in other areas im like the general public: little better than some worse than others

 

[Darthvoy]

I dunno, but I once took an IQ test in High School and got one IQ point below genius...so yes I think I am smart.

For all of those people posting their 'standardized test' scores and equating them to IQ, or talking about taking actual IQ tests, we need actual test names to make any valid comparisons.

Stanford-Binet IQ tests are only really a measure of average knowledge rated by mental vs chronological age, while the Wechsler actually does have a component of pure cognitive ability to it. SAT's, ASVAB's, ACT's, GRE's, state school tests (ITBS, WASL, ITED, etc)...while they are suggestive of some general knowledge or math/verbal ability, these are not valid IQ tests. There are at least a dozen other IQ tests as well, all with their own scales and interpretations and areas of testing. By some tests (like the SB &amp; Wechsler) 130-132 is genius and equates to the top 2%, while on others (like Cattel) that number is 148.

We also need a better definition of the levels...by leet do you mean genius? If so 2% of the population qualifies, which is 120,000,000 people...just how elite is something with over 100million members??? It might be easier to break the scale down by standard deviations. Just a suggestion.
