      It has been a long time since I’ve seen someone mention their IQ score unironically.

        Since my psychologist says that my ADHD and the high iq are closely related its worth mentioning. But i don’t get why people are offended by it. Man its just a number.

          It’s been debunked as an inaccurate measurement of intelligence so it feels more like a Buzzfeed quiz result nowadays.

            Debunked is a strong word, its inaccurate and doesn’t account for many factors, but it does give a pretty good insight on how good you can do a iq test… (btw we talk about real ones not some “iq test” from the internet)

            ¯_(ツ)_/¯

              I apologize. This morning, whatever search terms I used, brought back many articles stating they were debunked. This afternoon with different search terms, I am seeing more back and forth on the validity of these tests. It’s also not something I have heard psychologists use in regards to mental health.
