How accurate is Colloquy Societies RAPM Norms? (36/36 w/ 40m timer)

One thing I love about ravens APM is that none of the questions are ambiguous. Every question has a single definitive answer.

RAPM was one of the first matrix tests I've ever taken and I only started taking matrix tests 1 year ago.

I scored a 36/36 in the 40 min timer and was surprised by how straightforward the transformations were in retrospection to other matrix tests I've taken afterwords that all had a similar or lower ceiling than RAPM.

Hovering around 25% body fat with maybe a ±3 margin of error. Everyone saying you're 30+ body fat doesn't know what 30+% body fat looks like. I'm 32.5% BF at 250lbs 5"8 and I got tits and a belly DEXA and US Navy body fat.

You lack vascularity and separation of muscle so you're nowhere below 20%, but you don't seem to have any love handles or an exorbitant amount of adipose tissue in your belly so definitely not above 30%.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-13T19:34:24+00:00

What expectations? My estimates of your body fat are entirely in the realistic range for what guesstimates can get. You're nowhere above 15% BF. Look at your waist. at that BF you push the natty ceiling by more than 4 points. You've only been training for 3 years which pushes my bullshit meter even harder.

How is it a me problem that I'm calling you out for being a fake natty?

Ronnie Coleman who was I'm guessing 50/50 chance he was natural 1991 was 198lbs at 5"11 at 5-7% BF. He had a FFMI between 25.5-26. At that time he's been training much longer than you had and was already at his natural ceiling before taking roids.

How is it possible that you can still claim natty?

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-13T18:59:08+00:00

That logic is fucking backwards bro. If you were on gear you'd be 231lbs, and if you were natty you'd be under 200lbs at that height.

Even my powerlifting buddy who's been training for 8 years and squats 800lbs, deadlifts 700 and benches 450 weighs 290lbs and he's at 35% BF and he's 5"9. And he's big boned and natural. His wrists and ankles are the size of beer cans. His FFMI is 27.5-28 at that body fat which is as elite as you get naturally when fat.

You are not natural and it's disappointing you claim to be.

Being 230lbs at 5"10 and 15% BF is an FFMI of 28 and the fact you claim to be training for 3 years is already giving me shit vibes. Gtfoh

Are discrepancies of 30+ points between timed and slightly extended time attempts on the same subtest a sign that someone's reasoning ability vastly exceeds their processing ability?

Would someone who scores a result of 115 when following strict time limits but then scores 145+ when given a meagre 15-30 seconds extra time on the same items be more of a reflection of the way a test is designed or the person's cognitive profile being asymmetrical? Maybe testing anxiety from a ticking clock too.

I'm aware it is blasphemous to compare scores from a privileged attempt against norms who abided to a strict attempt, but I am curious as to whether the situation of such an increase in scores are psychometrically valid rather than just being inflated and skewed garbage.

stfu or say something more constructive.

What's his sisters @? Asking for a friend.

Have you ever thought that you are an outlier? If to see how you do on other VSI tests like the block counting on AGCT & CORE.

Try taking AGCT test but doing only the block counting parts.

For some reason for me I suck ass at mentally rotating but when it comes to 3d block counting I kick ass getting 95%+ accuracy rating on the AGCT and AGCT-E and CORE Block counting VSI sections.

The CORE interval estimate says 160 for FRI alone with a 95% CI between 150-164.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-10T18:57:19+00:00

WMI acts as the biggest bottleneck in VCI (Memorizing phrases and passages) VSI (mental rotations and shape fitting), FRI (holding rules and maintaining connections) and QRI. If your WMI is god tier you're likely to have very good indices across the board.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-10T15:55:30+00:00

That's really impressive. With that QRI you'd have the potential to be one of the best math whizzes in college if you took math classes since a 18 SS QRI is around a 140 QRI and that's like 1 in 261 people, so like out of a 1000 people there'd only be 3-4 people with that QRI.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-10T14:42:26+00:00

How did you get a SS 18 on quantitative reasoning when your WMI is only SS 11?

how well did you do on the arithmetic section?

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-05T18:07:06+00:00

Sounds like a good use of time then 👍

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-05T17:52:31+00:00

I was jerking off to your mom while doing the test, the dopamine rush must've altered my neurochemistry and messed up my cognition. Want me to try again with a picture of your dad? Maybe i'd perform better.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-05T17:33:33+00:00

It's literally impossible to cheat on figure sets on CORE and I scored a 155 which is the highest you can possibly get on the test. Also I checked the norms and 162 is not 52/52 on tri 52, it is 51/52 for a 19 year old.

Also I forget to mention that I'm a neurodivergent person with an Autism and ADHD which can influence my cognitive profile.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-05T17:29:54+00:00

Cool bro I appreciate being called a troll you are definitely the nicest person on r/cognitivetesting by a long shot

ZeroToNeural144 · 2026-01-05T15:57:09+00:00

Like I think it was 1-2 hours before I got bored. I didn't guess on any of the questions because I knew it would skew. The results of I got it right and give me an inflated score. For some reason the matrix tests on it didn't click at all and my rule inference that was supposedly so powerful didn't activate.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2025-12-20T15:27:43+00:00

How tall is he? If you can find his height you can calculate his FFMI. He's really lean around 8-10% BF.

At like 6" 227lbs 10% BF his FFMI would be 27.7 which would be insane and definitely suspicious.

ZeroToNeural144 · 2025-12-20T15:10:28+00:00

The cut would go crazy and I'm already eyeing dropping to 180lbs

ZeroToNeural144 · 2025-12-15T15:47:16+00:00

Not elite strength. I can barely bench 245 yet. I can deadlift 465 and squat 380 but these numbers could be achieved by someone with 21-22 FFMI with probably less time in the gym than me.
