Tom

IQ Description % of Population
130+ Very superior 2.2%
120-129 Superior 6.7%



6.7%, that will do nicely :-))

Of course this only applies to IF you have subscribed to the UK
gardening group, IF you have had the link, IF you have the time, IF you
take the entire test, IF you can understand it, read it.

So the range of people taking it I guess is going to be confined to a
fairly small percentage of the population? Might be interesting to know
(from a female POV) whether we score less than the (apparently) male
examinees on the visual or spatial awareness. We are always being told
that women are hopeless at those type of questions, so perhaps gardeners
buck the trend?

A high score could also mean that you have done the same test before.


Or are good at the tests?

One thing Mike's son could do is to write a short program to note the
machine addresses of the participants.
Tom can do this for people playing on his Diplomacy gaming site and the
software has been developed to automatically flag up those people who
are trying to join under pseudonyms but using the same computer

Certainly not. That's what men want us believe and what we want them to
believe but is isn't so

so perhaps gardeners buck the trend?

Bas did the test just after me on my computer, using his own email
address (completely different from mine) and he hasn't received a reply,
so perhaps they already pick that up.

Ah, of course! That would explain it. I mentioned the non-returns by
email yesterday, but I rather doubt that he has the facility to see
individual computers' identities in his automatically generated list of
emails. He will, by the way, of course delete all emails collected after
the experiment: that and other data protection matters should have been
mentioned in the introduction.

Mike I can never do these things because once I get to the number questions,
I'm a goner! But when I tried, I couldn't get it to load past (I think)
page 11. Is that a Mac user problem, perhaps?

I think it must be. I'm sorry, but I suspect it's probably too late to
fix it -- but of course I'll report it to him. (Funny how some people
are naturally less at home with numbers: one of my daughters and one of
my nieces have the same gonerness, though way above average at language
and other things.)

Please don't be sorry because I don't think anyone is likely to set up such
a quiz and take into account all the programming required for e.g. a Mac
user. There must be a good deal going on in his life besides worrying about
that!
You cheer me up on both counts. ;-) I'm quick on basic mental arithmetic
because I was taught it very well at my first school when I was 4 or 5. We
did times tables and mental arithmetic every morning, first lesson. But
later teachers were awful and my convent school 'maths Nun' quite literally
drove me close to a nervous breakdown at 12. I had such terrible nightmares
that I used to fight to keep myself awake. To this day a sort of haze comes
over my brain the minute someone talks figures or money or tax matters or
whatever to me and it annoys me very much about myself because in other
areas I'm not stupid.
Words and letters are a breeze - love them! I think I'm a walking example
of the results of good and bad teaching.
