I do not think that this IQ test was very accurate because my classmates and I got exceptionally high scores to the point that they are actually unrealistic. The average IQ score should be around 90 to 110 but my classmates and I all got way over the average, which shows that the test is not truly valid and reliable. IQ follows a normal curve and 68% of the people have the IQ score of 85 to 115. However, less than 2% have the IQ score that is higher than 130. It does not seem feasible that the majority of our class could be included in that small minority of less than 2%.
This was actually my first time taking an IQ test and I think it is always important to keep in mind that IQ scores are prone to fluctuations depending on the situation and variety of IQ test problems. Standardized tests (such as SATs) often serve as reliable predictors of future progress; in fact, studies showed that there is a positive correlation between high SAT scores and college performance. According to my performance on this IQ test as well as the SAT, I could conclude that I have considerably high ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use knowledge to adapt to new situations. But I could not truly believe in the accuracy of the results of this test for the aforementioned reason.
