>tfw average IQ
>tfw scraping by at uni

The only thing I want to do with my life is perform medical research. I'm really trying /sci/ but I only ever scrape by on theory exams. What am I even working towards, no grad school will ever accept me to carry out research with average grades. I know something has to change but I feel like I have tried everything. How am I supposed to know if I'm not wired for this?

How does it feel to find out you were lied to and in fact all these years you were only a brainlet? Reminds me of this guy on /fit/ who wrongly converted metric to imperial units and always thought he was 6 feet until he was measured and found himself to be only 5'8''.
>>
>>7716196
Not the guy you're asking, but i'm a member of mensa too (in Austria). Hasn't been that interesting so far, im only staying a member because the first year is free. I joined after taking their IQ test (scored above 145), and thought that their specialized groups sounded nice, but they are only doing relatively normie stuff (e.g watching movies, playing games etc.)
>>
>>7716223
I scored high when I was a kid but I haven't taken the test yet. Should I take the Mensa test, given your experience with them or is it really an elitist group of people who swim in the collective cum of their intellectual masturbation all day long?
>>
>>7716231
For me, personally, it isn't really worthwhile, but I haven't gotten all that involved in their activities. Slightly elitistic, but actually less so than I would've thought. Taking the test won't hurt, though. Unless you get a score worse than what you were expecting, I suppose.
>>
>>7716058
Took the test and scored 176. Am I a brainlet?
>>
>>7716241
Yeah the activities kind of scare me a bit. I'm extremely socially awkward unless I'm intoxicated. But I will take the test soon though because my GP told me he had a suspicion that I may be gifted which could be the reason why I get into so much trouble at work. Thanks for your input!

Well, he was of the opinion that I exhibited a lot of personality traits of people he knew that were gifted, e.g. one of his colleagues. Problems with authority, boredom at the job because I improve shit very fast which causes me to browse the web all day long, very sensitive to external sensations,.. Yeah, I know. The horoscope phenomenon. But a lot of, if not all , of the "symptoms", he described up made a lot of sense and explained a lot. Both in my professional career as in my private life. I remembered taking an IQ test when I was a kid but I don't know the exact number, only that it was very high. Anyway, the doc told me I should take an IQ test to be sure.

Is your IQ really 149? My IQ is also 149. I have a near eidetic memory, a digit span of 20 meaning I can memorize pretty much any password/formula/screenplay on the spot, great visualization abilities (I can draw the human body in pretty much any angle and perspective without reference), 99.98% percentile typing speed, 2390 on the SAT without studying (800 SAT math by 8th grade), great talent in writing (won national history, creative writing and journalism contests in high school) and a 99.9% percentile performance in pretty much everything else (diamond 2 promos in LoL).

If you don't have comparable mental abilities, I highly doubt your IQ is that high.

Look OP IQ really doesn't mean shit and if your only just scraping by don't loose hope, i got into grad programs in chem and my gpa equated to ~64%. Just talk to your professors, approach them after class with questions, talk to them about shared interests and show them your enthusiastic.

Most of them are aware that not everyone who is practically gifted and useful tests well.

I guessed luckily on that one it seems, I've taken the test a few times now at intervals of 6-7 months. That pic was from over a year ago, must have got lucky with a couple of the last questions.

I tested 6 months ago and got 122, did it again just now and got this, so at least 130 wasn't a total fluke.

Hey someone, what the fuck is going on with the last question? Every other one I can see patterns and make relatively decent judgments, it's only that last one where I don't see a single damn thing. I'm overwhelmed with information and can't see anything meaningful despite it being right in front of me. It's the only one that made me feel legitimately retarded.

I've done that test 3 times now and spent like the last 10 mins each time trying to figure out that last question and still haven't 'got it'.

Evidently I never will, someone wanna tell me what's going on? You don't have to tell me the answer, I'm interested in the mechanics, I often over-complicate things looking for hidden subtext instead of going with the obvious.

I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker.

The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can debate you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my mind. Not only am I extensively trained in particle physics, but I have access to the entire arsenal of JSTOR and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

I do have """"comparable"""" mental abilities (even though I doubt you have) but you obviously have personality problems and are arrogant as anyone can be. If you actually went through the stages of depression as I did or had basic common sense, you would actually consider the feeling of others without having apathy to literally everything that doesn't equal to your "might". I think you should remain cautious because I feel as though as it is likely you may crash in some time or realize something that you did not before. It may change your life forever good or bad. I had always realized that I was vastly imperfect since I could never socialize well and I just hated my identity and how I thought others saw in me. You may see these achievements as attributes but they mean nothing more as childish things when considering your overall self-worth. I am not a pessimistic person but I feel as though some have it easier than me. I don't know when but one day I just broke completely and it has had a negative impact on me ever since. But it made me realize that no one is born perfect and we always have room to improve. I am still young and healthy and I have a lot of years on my card. I will assume that you are young as well judging by your typing syntax. I just really wish I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth and I regret being alive even to this day. But I am still learning to deal with this feeling as I have trouble understanding basic concepts that others catch on instantly. Just hear me out, keep living my friend.

But just so you know I can do all that you stated but maybe even better. Autism is a goddammed cancer that must be eradicated RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

And these are the overall results of this IQ test I once took. Even though I am not too quick to trust IQ tests, I find it relative to how well I did tests in school but was never well acquitted to doing the classwork. I don't think classwork adds up to anything important to me other than distributing lies about actual work efficiency. I honestly do well at jobs but school has affected me so bad that it makes me regret not actually doing the work. I was 14 when I did this IQ test by the way but has remained the same through time. I think it explains well in the way that I think. I was never talking about the OP IQ test just so you know. I don't like patterns and shit. Fuck that.

Thank you for the advice but I do infact find happiness on posting on a Norwegian sock and garden forum.

Even though people on this site are a little too ironic and uppity at times, they have the potential of going in an in depth conversation but are usually scared off because saying something in one wrong way can get you ridiculed. But I would rather not care about what people think about me on an anonymous imageboard, that's why I like it here.

Same problem with me, I looked it up and the mechanism was one I hadn't thought of, but pretty simple. Basically each symbol turns from a triangle to a cross to a circle in each of the examples. All the symbols cycle through that path, while also moving left to right and down. Symbols on the right edge move down a row and to the left edge. Exactly like reading which goes left to right, down left to right, etc

"Lol dude this thread is bullshit, this test is absolute bullshit lol.....but I have to JUST LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT I GOT A REALLY HIGH SCORE LOOK HERE AT THIS SCREENCAP I TOOOK IN CASE YOU DONT BELIVE ME."

I mean really? People actually are taking screen caps so that they can be validated anonymously.

This board is the same shit everyday, it's either "my major is this much harder than yours" or "this bullshit is test is so dumb lol but still tell me I'm smarter than you".

Again let me remind you, PEOPLE ARE TAKING SCREEN CAPS TO PROVE THIER SCORE. Is this not absolutely absurd?
Endless dick waving, flacid dicks being swung with great force in order to assert anonymous dominance.

Then do what I'm attempting to do. Wherever you are, start making research more of a community based experience. I saw another thread that mentioned a place called Genespace try to establish something similar. Sure you can't work on top of the notch research, but just stay on top off it until tools for passion researchers florish. I bet in the next 10 years, people can afford to have approved and efficent labs in their own home

>It's absurd! Don't do it!
The fact that many faggots think that doing good on a shitty test with patterns means that they are superior, rustles my jimmies so much.

Because it reminds me how a failure I am even when I scored between 132-140+ on that shit.

>How am I supposed to know if I'm not wired for this?
Make yourself wired for it.

I won't lie to you, doing that kind of deep architectural work within your mind isn't easy. It can be very painful. You will have to give things up, and you'll probably find that you're clinging to things that don't work, get in the way, but make you feel good and secure.

People say IQ is bullshit, and they're correct. But there are hard biases and hardware limitations. You just need to learn to do with your mind what you can, and push it further and further. Your problem is probably that you're trying to learn and get better while staying roughly as who you already are.

You can't. Get metacognitive with it. Stop rushing and focusing on the external world, and do some introspection. At least then you'll know if you're better off ditching it.
>>
>>7716284
I got 122 as well.

The fun thing is that IQ and what most people equate to intelligence are two completely separate things.
IQ is pattern recognition and reasoning, 'intelligence' to most people is measured by your ability to learn about and implement complex skills.

That's why you can get people like Ben Carson. Fantastic at learning and implementing technical skills, absolutely shitty at reasoning beyond those skills.

I never said that mental illnesses didn't exist. I said that a group of people telling you that you have mental disorder X but can't prove it rigorously proves that you're a gigantic dumb fuck and it also proves that IQ tests, made by the same type of people mind you, are bullshit.
It's insane that you can't see how much of an idiot you are but it's also expected. Anyway, have fun proxying your failures in life towards a field of research that changes its stance on "disorders" when it has tortured data long enough coercing nature to confess, to quote Ronald Coase.

Hate to break it to you, but tests done during childhood have basically no validity. I was tested too and got something about a SD below you (don't recall the actual numbers). Got professionally tested 4 years later and I had dropped to within one SD of the norm, and I was still a teen. I wouldn't wipe my ass with the results.

I know anon, that was a low point for me

Ok guys give it to me straight. The first time I did this test I thought I'd breeze through it and score well, I'd had 3-4 drinks and it was in the middle of the night and I only scored 107/106. That scared the hell out of me so the next day I sobered up and gave it a 2nd go when fully alert.

Scored 130.

Does that 130 count or was it second time lucky?

(assuming online tests count for anything at all)

>>7719062

>How am I supposed to know if I'm not wired for this?

You give it a go and see if it all works out. Don't use any metrics to convince yourself not to try.

Most of getting a PhD is dedication. For every brilliant genius you read about, there are twenty other researchers clocking in and digging down to sweat out new knowledge. In the age of big science, research teams are huge, and it doesn't matter if you aren't some gifted autist. You can just be a regular autist.

Is your IQ really 170? My IQ is also 170. I have a near eidetic memory, a digit span of 20 meaning I can memorize pretty much any password/formula/screenplay on the spot, great visualization abilities (I can draw the human body in pretty much any angle and perspective without reference), 99.98% percentile typing speed, 2390 on the SAT without studying (800 SAT math by 8th grade), great talent in writing (won national history, creative writing and journalism contests in high school) and a 99.9% percentile performance in pretty much everything else (diamond 2 promos in LoL).

IIRC, this test is biased towards math/geometry, so of course all the engineers and physics/math people will be good at it
IMO, these tests are bullshit, though.

Never got how picture pattern recognition = intelligence.

Like, will that ever allow or inhibit your ability to accurately calculate the max weight a bridge can hold or something else along those lines?
>>

Ability to calculate max weight a bridge can hold comes down to plugging in numbers.

It takes pattern recognition to put the bridge back together after an engie fucks it all up.
