Being interested in an objective measurement of your intellect? Silliest fucking thing I have ever heard!
The belief that an commercial IQ test is an “objective measure of your intellect” is a pretty good subjective measure of your intellect.
I am sorry, it is silly to think that in intelligence test measures intelligence
people fall for unvalidated tests, often even totally fake ones that offer “training” to increase your “IQ”. Generally IQ tests are a very good measure of how well people take standardized tests. The problem is, scoring high on those tests might correlate with one’s capabilities, but it doesn’t mean real-world competence. In medicine for example, it’s not the people with the highest scores tend to be the best doctors, but the ones who follow up on issues, and that habit compounds. etc.
