Is this an official IQ test?

It’s an online estimate built from the same kinds of puzzles used in established intelligence tests, scored on the standard IQ scale. A formal IQ result can only come from an assessment given in person by a psychologist.

What is an average IQ?

100. About two out of three people score between 85 and 115, and about one in fifty scores 130 or higher.

Do I need math skills?

Only basic arithmetic for the number puzzles. Most puzzles are about patterns and logic, not calculation. No calculator needed.

What happens if I run out of time?

The test ends and is scored on the puzzles you answered. Unanswered puzzles count as incorrect, so it’s worth guessing if you’re unsure.

What do I get at the end?

Your IQ score and percentile, scores for your four abilities, speed and accuracy, practical chapters about your thinking style, and a shareable result card.

Yes, but your second score will usually be a little higher because the puzzle types are familiar. The first attempt is the most accurate.

Four kinds of thinking.

IQ isn't one skill. The test measures four abilities separately, so you see your overall score and the shape of your mind behind it. Try an example from each.

Where would you rank?

IQ scores are set so the average is 100. Move the score to see how many people out of 100 you'd outperform.

Built like a real test.

Not a quiz with trick questions. The test is structured the way cognitive tests are: rising difficulty, a time limit and a normed score.

Gets harder as you go

Puzzles start easy and ramp up, so the test can tell a good score from a great one.

A fair time limit

Fifteen minutes for twenty-five puzzles. Speed counts, but accuracy counts more.

A standard scale

Your score uses the familiar IQ scale: average 100, with most people between 85 and 115.

What your report shows.

Your IQ score and percentile, your four abilities side by side, how fast and accurate you were, and a result card you can share.

What an IQ score does, and doesn't, tell you.

Our puzzles use the item types found in established intelligence tests: matrix reasoning, number series, logical deduction and mental rotation. Scores are scaled to an average of 100 with a standard deviation of 15.

An estimate, not a clinical assessment. Online tests are a good indication, but only a psychologist-administered assessment gives a formal IQ result. MyTestPro is not affiliated with Mensa or any test publisher.
