I've never understoon what an IQ test is supposed to... well.. test.
It doesn't really test your cognition, it seems like it's mostly a test to see how good you are at taking tests. I say this because there is no way a person with no schooling would do as well as a college graduate. A real "intelligence measurment test" should rely on your natural ability to solve problems, don't you agree?
Interesting nonetheless.

You're right.
Especially in this one, there is a heavy bias toward literature (and englist 'sayings') particularly, which would result in english speaking educated people scoring a great deal better than uneducated or non-english speakers.
Educated != intelligent.
It's a simple test for easily amused people.

Is that ment to be good?
What's the deal with the "which is the odd one out questions" most of them had multiple justifiable answers depending on how you looked at the problem.

I don't take IQ tests, and in fact, I really don't like them at all. Intelligence is not something that can be mesured by a test, it is simply to abstract...All tests require knowledge, so if you don't have that specific knowledge, then you will not score well on the test no matter your brain capacity. It is impossible to make a test that does not test knowledge.

Thats the idea of an IQ test. If you test multiple people on the same material, you will discover the subjects 'intelligence' only relating to the concepts involved, and only related to each other. Thats why it is a quotient (which can be a ratio).
You are right, it is impossible to measure intelligence as a straight quantitive measure, as we have no scale to base that on (because intelligence is such an abstract concept). The IQ test just tries to compare people against people, and hopefully on a wide enough variety of concepts and subjects to get a rough number. You will always run into the situations of what type of genius is smarter than another type of genius.

Well that proves that this test is hopeless. Quite obviously, from the quality of your posts especially recently, you're an idiot.

Do I need to remind people about the rules of this forum?
No personal attacks.
If this continues (I have noticed a lot of it lately) I will begin locking accounts for one week.

Depends on the IQ test, see www.mensa.org for details. The average score is 100. Althought due to the nature of the people on this board, I'd expect most of the people here to be in the 130s.
