      I’m not sure, I don’t know how reliable IQ tests are! Besides, your IQ isn’t important when it comes to going to university or finding a job. If you’re determined and passionate about something, whether it’s a hobby or a passion that you’d like to turn into a career, that’s far more important than what your IQ score is.

      I have no idea! Is this important?

      I am reasonably intelligent (mostly), and am quite good at what I do. Sometimes, I have trouble with people understanding links which I think are obvious. But that is how my mind works and I guess I should explain my workings. A big advocate of working out loud!

      I don’t know, and don’t really care. As Dawn says, it is not clear how reliable IQ tests are. They are very good at seeing how good you are at doing IQ tests, but it is not clear they tell you anything else!
      Determination and enthusiasm are much more important.

      No idea! I don’t think anyone has their IQ taken these days unless they want to pay to get into MENSA, and most of the internet tests aren’t reliable. I don’t think any job needs to know your IQ! I guess we’ve all worked hard to get to where we are, and we all love what we do, and all without knowing the IQ!
