If you don't learn to think rationally, an IQ serves only to take you faster in the wrong direction. Look how many famous people need to be very smart to get where they are, but are utter fools when it comes to politics and morality. A person with an average IQ who understands the meaning of the axiom A=A is more intelligent than any leftist!
I remember those. I did pretty well and remember not giving it much credit because it didn’t ask those factual questions. The one thing I’ve learned in the last 5 years is that there really are some dumb humans in the world. I no longer have instant respect for someone because they have an important job or hold a degree.

I feel this. I call it an ego play, and I'm training myself to move away from that. I've got a strong technical background and am pretty close to finishing some engineering degrees, so it's easy to flex that on people. Pure ego. Good information will stand on its own and doesn't need to be said by a doctor/lawyer/engineer to be true.
My iQ = 162

What’s a good IQ test? Any online one will do or is there a real life pen and paper?
Look for instagram puzzles that say only geniuses can solve it.

You could try www.iqtest.com. I used it literally 19 years ago, the site is still active, I just checked.
Not sure if online tests are valid - mine was done by a school district psychologist aeons ago.
