IQ is not based on education level. There are IQ tests for 6-year-olds. The point of the test is to measure one's cognitive ability, irrelevant of socio-economic background.
I didn't say IQ is based on education level. my point is when the IQ test involves math how are you supposed to get good scores if you don't know how to do the math involved in the test?
There are Bongard, Raven's Progressive Matrices, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale tests. For these, the subject is often asked to identify missing elements in a pattern.
Take a look at some of these practice examples. One does not need to have studied any math to answer these questions. The directions can be read aloud by the test administrator if the subject does not know how to read.
