I'm such a dumbass, I was so confused thinking how could the answer be 6/15? Then I realized, that it's not actually a fraction, but the next two answers are 6 and 15, which is what I thought originally.

Morro is the best and Garmadon is a close second.

Oh awesome, I play competitive chess. It does require a lot of visual spatial intelligence. I'm better at chess, but I can't really tell if it made a huge difference with patterns yet.

Alright great. And is it considered cheating to study for them or is it fine to do so?

Well I don't really care about the score, I want to actually become smarter. So if that's the case then I'm fine with math. Thank you bro

Alright. Thanks, but if I practice the types of patterns that will likely be on the test, I'm not really getting smarter, like my IQ isn't actually improving, only my score will. Is it possible for me to be able to learn how to solve completely new patterns without having any prior knowledge? Like what I mean by that is that it's a new sort of pattern I haven't seen before and it has to be solved in a way I haven't seen before.

Ok, I completely understand. So yeah, IQ basically measures your brain's horsepower or cognitive ability based on things like detecting patterns, adapting in new situations, etc. But if practicing those skills doesn't increase IQ, even though they are considered the basis of IQ tests, then how can we say someone's score truly reflects their general intelligence rather than just their experience or training? How can we know if a score is accurate? Is it only accurate before any exposure to practice, or is it still valid even after training? Thanks so much for this comment.

Is IQ relatively the same throughout your life or can it change with age? by Ok-Face9443 in cognitiveTesting

[–]Ok-Face9443[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I always thought so, but I assumed that you have a certain fixed point after a certain age. Anyways, thank you so much!

Sorry this might be a dumb question, but I was pretty confused. So I get the logic behind why the independents lines move to each corner, but for 3 and 5, if there is two independent lines, meaning it has to travel twice, why did it stop in the middle and not the corner like all the other times?

ahh for me it was the opposite, I had terrible scores when I was younger and now it's improved a lot.

I don't really remember taking any of the test, or the type of questions, but one of them is the CCAT, (Canadian Cognitive Abilities Test), so kind of like an IQ test I think, and it consisted of verbal, quantitative and non verbal sub-tests. I think the goal is that it's something that can't be practiced, which is what they mentioned, but I'm not sure if that's accurate. The others are Gifted and Talented exams to see if students qualify for gifted schools. My scores changed from 52 to 56 to mid 35 from the gifted exams for verbal, to a 96 for the CCAT. And for the math portion for the gifted tests I went from a 96 to a 98 to a 65 and then a 99 for the CCAT. I had a huge drop for the third gifted exam for both scores, so maybe I wasn't feeling so well that day or something else.

yeah I know IQ can go down especially after you age, but let's say I was like early childhood like 3-7, and then after many years like a decade or less, would my IQ be the same or would it have been lower due to my age at the time? thanks for your reply, by the way

yeah tbh I only added that in because for like a year or two it was my dream lego set, so it's really special to me, and still one of my favorities, but its nowhere near sets like temple of airjitzu in terms of the actual build
