We have an awful lot of "geniuses" here, or just people who take oddball tests. 140 is considered genius (I scored a mere 136 on the emode test). 150+ is just unheard of. If you could tell us which tests yielded that result, that would be great. If you scored that high on the emode test, that's wonderful. I'd like to see your answers.

Although we won't believe everything we read online, http://www.wilderdom.com/personality...tandingIQ.html has some information about iq distribution. They fall in a bell curve by design, since 100 is the median iq score.

http://www.us.mensa.org/news_media/newsroom/052903.php has a short faq on them.

(Not to open the whole IQ debate or anything, but I didn't think IQ tests could measure to 160 accurately.)

So me:

IQ: 136
Economic Left/Right: -0.88
Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.95

One click left, 3 or 4 libertarian. (-1,-4) Sounds about right to me.
