Anyone else taking the ACT on Saturday?

I'm probably going to take the PSAT and SAT these coming weeks just for the hell of it, to see what I can get. The fee's like $10 for each. It's like an IQ test, but cheaper. Heh.

Actually, they aren't anything like an IQ test. An Q test tests your intellegence quotiont, the SAT's test onlyhow well you can recall English comp and how quickly you can do simple mathematical computation...and howw well you can fill in little bubbles... its like $20 at least... I don't remember, I took em twice and got a 1260. Got in everywehre I applied.

Fail, thats a simile.

I know it doesnt measure IQ, but it shows how smart you are. IQ numbers dont really mean anything.. If a test said mine was 131, and yours was 120, that doesnt mean I know how to, say, dance better than you. IQ tests are worthless. :P

My English teacher got the second highest score for the state of California in her senior high school year. Dylflon, thats Ms. Braidwood. You can ask her. She told me all about it. Heh.

I'm in college now so I don't have any of those tests to worry about at the moment. I took the SAT in high school and got a 1260. GOt a 1300 on the PSAT.

That may be true, but scoring over a 150 could be fun now and then ¦¬Þ

Happydude · 10-23-2003, 12:53 AM

I got like a 144 on an online IQ test.

Im not sure on how accurate those are.

Ive read before that person should never find out their true IQ, from a real test, because if you score low, you'll think your an idiot, and if you score high, you'll be egotistical.

Happydude · 10-23-2003, 05:47 PM

lmao...144...you wish, online IQ tests are not acurate at all, and not just from your result, but in general.

Stonecutter · 10-23-2003, 07:47 PM

I've taken those things before too. The ones where they try and sell you something at the end that confirms your score, not accurate at all, they just want you to buy thier crap so you can "prove" how smart you are (and, thus, prove how dumb you are in the process.) The questions they ask are the same types of questions, but the scoring is all messed up. I think I got a 173 or something close to that, which is damn near impossible.
