After you waste your time answering all their questions, you give them your email and they ask you to pay $15 for the results. Just using half-truths to avoid lawsuits but I'm sure everyone hates them.

Booby catch.
March 27, 2023

The majority of the so-called IQ testing websites do this: they lure you into taking the test by telling you that it is free and you will have a good idea of your IQ, then hide or provide a limited result and ask you to pay at the end of the test after you feel exhausted and unable to make a proper decision. Most of those who can afford it will just pay for it, but most people aren't aware that they can access their score without paying and will just pay for it or feel frustrated and dismiss the website. All is done, so you cannot accuse them of being deceitful, but they are not honest either.

Also, scores tend to be higher than they really are. So, those who receive a much higher score than they anticipated are more likely to share it and obviously pay for the certificate and thorough report. This is because people usually like to brag about how intelligent they are.

I'm in 2 HI-IQ
January 5, 2019

This testing organization seems to be a SCAM. Only after you take the test do they tell you there is a charge. This site has received the same complaints for over a year; I guess they are trying to make sure they are able to provide for their children and are trying to set a good example for others. It's sad they feel that its ok.

Embarrassing
January 24, 2022

I took the test and I scored more than 145 in all the cathegories except computational speed where I scored 66.
Honestly an average of 147 (without computational speed) is really too much, It's clear that the result is studied to be high so people are satisfied. ( i scored 140 with the 66, and it's super high as well).
Btw 66 in computational speed means that I'm completely $#*!ed with numbers, I'm a master student in mathematics: i'm not so fast with computations but i'm pretty sure im better than the average.
To conclude: it's a random test, dont take it.

Your Computational Speed Score does not mean that you are bad with numbers. It means that you are slow. The Computational Speed Score is a measure of how long it took you to complete the test. That is all.

They are targetting keywords like "Free IQ test Oline". And when a user goes on their site, the never mention anything until a user spends 40 minutes or so in completing the questions. At the end, instead of showing the results, they lead to straight to the checkout area! LoL such as bull$#*!t way to trape users! I wish there was a 0 star!

Update on IQTest.com
December 6, 2023
Updated review

They did send you the result of your IQ Test via email (even though sometimes it may end up in spam) but this still doesn't make me change my rating that much because the user experience I had on their website is very misleading. When I took the IQ test, there was no mention of payment and after I finished the test (which can take minutes) then the site told me to pay to get my results without any indication that they will be sending the final IQ score via email. I don't think any one would think they would be getting an email with the results just by reading the message after completing the test. The site should clearly indicate the final IQ score will be sent by email and if you need the detailed report then you should pay for it. I still think there is intentional misleading behavior on that site to try and get people to purchase their product.

This is a scam
August 6, 2023
Previous review

Simply put this is a scam. First of they won't tell you they are going to charge you money to view your IQ results before you start taking the test. They will let you spend your time on the test and finally they will inform you you have to pay before viewing the results of your IQ test. This is a scam. The website should clearly indicate before the start of the test that it is a paid service and you will need to pay to view your results. What is worse is that, they even collect your name and email address before they demand you pay for the results of your IQ test.

It was great!
August 23, 2015

I mean, I thought the test was pretty conclusive. Made me FEEL smart with an iq of 135, although I'm not sure how accurate that was. Reading a specific previous post led me to believe it was reliable, but who knows?
No, you don't have to pay the $ for the results, they sent it directly to my email. When the "Pay $ for extensive results" popped up, I just looked online to see if there was a way around it. Turns out, they send your score anyway, & that was just to delve a little deeper on your results, aka squeeze a penny or two out of you.
It's good. Take the test!

The Google ad I clicked on says "free test", and while this is technically correct, the results are $15 and you are not told until you take the full 10-15 minute test. Waste of my time. Site itself needs some work for mobile.

This site allows you to test your IQ. It's something you can do for fun. Their IQ test is pretty quick to do. People going to IQ sites should beware of spam or stupid runaround sites that never show your score unless you buy something or click through some spam edu offers. So far, this site seems ok on that front.

In order to see your score, you will have to enter your email address, and they will mail you your score. I didn't opt for the detailed report for $10.

This part of their FAQ cracked me up:
"The mean score is currently 108.447 (Confounding variable: The lowest IQ holders will not be capable of using the internet to measure their own intelligence.)"

Wow, so many people claiming this site doesn't give you your results for free.
It's hilariously sad. But, at least they'll all be safe in the event of a "zombie apocalypse". Lol!

After you complete the test, you have to provide the site with an email address for it to send you your results. After you enter your email, check your email. If you still can't find your results, check your spam/junk folder.

As for the accuracy of this test, I think the site's meant more for entertainment purposes and not actually a reliable source for such information.
I scored 135. I'll admit I'm happy with my result but, I doubt I'm really that smart.
Though, it's nice to think I might be. Lol.
The only problem I have with this site is that it had way too few questions. Easy questions for that matter. So, I don't believe it could accurately estimate your IQ.

Honestly, when I was taking this exam, I felt that it was extremely tedious and difficult. However, I thought it gave me an ample challenge when it came to testing my cranial abilities. I ended up getting a disappointing score of 142, which is just shy of my normal genius level, but it'll have to do. Overall, I think everybody should try this site.

Well I didn't pay to see the details for my score cause I thought I was unfair, but recently they emailed me and told me that there's a half price ($5) promotion to get my detailed results, so I did pay them. However, I am worried about the reliability and validity of the test? Does anyone know if I can safely trust their analysis and results?

Contrary to what most people have said, this test DOES give you a general estimate of your IQ, and only charges you 15$ for the in-depth analysis of your results. I cannot guarantee the validity of the test, but it was an entertaining way to spend 13 minutes. On every other IQ test I've taken, I've scored between 115 and 132, so receiving a 127 didn't seem that far off. The questions presented are definitely different than the questions on verified aptitude tests (like the mensa practice test), but they were enjoyable.

My results were promptly emailed to me, and the number of questions was enough to show that it would be relatively accurate. Just one small problem: it said my iq was 147. I am relatively smart for my age, but I am not quite sure if that is completely accurate. Whether or not it was accurate, it made me feel pretty good about myself. (I think it may have been rigged to be like that.) Other than that, great quiz!

We do not inflate scores. Your score of 147 may have been surprising to you, but we hear from people who are surprised by high and low scores. You might be interested in the Mensa IQ Challenge, a test offered just for fun. Mensa also offers a Practice Test for $9.95 that will give you an idea of how you would do on their Admission exam.

Let's just say that after performing a few statistical analyses, I can confirm that this test seems to measure something approximating general intelligence. The average could be considered to be around 114 with standard deviations of 17 points. Given the self-selecting nature of IQ testing sites, meaning that smart people will be drawn to IQ tests, the average of 114 as opposed to 100 isn't too far-fetched. I scored 151 on this test and 47/50 on the Wonderlic Contemporary Cognitive Ability Test (formerly known as the Wonderlic Personnel Test or Wonderlic). Just remember, everyone getting so upset that they comment their hate here is doing so as a result of their own subconscious feelings of inadequacy. Stop hating yourselves and it will be easier to stop hating on the providers of this website and its surprisingly effective services.

Congratulations, Julien! All those individual scores of 152 indicate that you answered all the questions correctly. The only thing keeping you from the highest possible score of 156 is the time.

Seemed like reasonable questions, good test... As mentioned in other reviews, cannot take the place of a proper psychoeducational test. Results emailed immediately for no cost. Additional charge is only for in-depth breakdown of scores. Fun and free on a lark!

The individuals who wrote that they had been scammed should have first checked their e mails. Test results are sent, and there is no fee. They probably realized they were mistaken, but were too lazy to go back and fix their negative reviews, thus affecting the overall rating. I imagine these individuals were not happy with their IQ scores.
