What is IQ?

Intelligence quotient (IQ) is an age-related measure of intelligence and is defined as 100 timesthe mental age. The word µquotient¶ means the result of dividing one quantity by another, andintelligence can be defined as mental ability or quickness of mind.

What is an IQ Test?

An intelligence test (IQ test) is, by definition, any test that purports to measure intelligence.Generally such tests consist of a graded series of tasks, each of which has been standardizedusing a large, representative population of individuals. This procedure establishes the average IQas 100. It is generally believed that a person¶s IQ rating is hereditary and that the rate of development of a person¶s mental age remains constant until about the age of 13 years, after which it slows up. Beyond the age of 18 little or no improvement is found.

IQ Test For Kids

Tests that measure the IQs of children are standardized and an average score is recorded for eachage group. Thus a child of 10 years of age who scores the results expected of a child of 12 wouldhave an IQ of 120, calculated as follows: (mental age/chronological age) 100 = (12/10) 100 =120 However, because little or no improvement in IQ rating is found in adults, they have to be judged on an IQ test whose average score is 100 and their results graded above and below thisnorm according to known scores.

During the past 25±30 years IQ testing has been brought into widespread use by employers because of their need to ensure that they place the right people in the right job from the outset.One of the main reasons for this in today¶s world of tight purse strings, cost cutting and low

budgets is the high cost of errors in employing the wrong person for a job, including the cost of readvertising and interviewing new applicants and of reinvestment in training.

How To Increase IQ Level?

As IQ is hereditary, it is not possible to increase your IQ. It is, nevertheless, possible to improveyour performance on IQ tests by practising the many different types of question and by learningto recognize the recurring themes. The questions in this book are typical of the type and style of question that you are likely to encounter in actual tests and are designed to provide valuable practice for anyone who may have to take this type of test in the future. It is our belief that by practising different types of IQ tests, and by attuning your mind to the different types of

questions you may encounter, it is possible to improve by a few vital percentage points. It isthese few percentage points that may prove crucial in increasing your job prospects and maymean the difference between success or failure when attending one of the many job interviewsthat include an IQ test.

The tests that follow are not, therefore, standardized, so an actual IQ assessment cannot be given.A little intelligence test for you - no cheating. Some of these questions are from an MBAentrance test. There are 10 questions. Do not look at the answers found at the end of this

A woman cannot eat less than 2 or more than 2 and the child

5. A cube of side 4cm is painted with 3 colors red, blue and green in such a way that oppositesides are painted in the same color. This cube is now cut into 64 cubes of equal size.

At the fourth tree the group picked just 5 apples. How many apples did each person pick at the first tree?

8. 4 criminals are caught and are to be punished. The Judge allows them to be freed if they cansolve a puzzle. If they do not, they will be hung. They agreed. The 4 criminals are lined up onsome steps (shown in picture). They are all facing in the same direction. A wall seperates thefourth man from the other three.

To Summarise

y Man 1 can see men 2 and 3.y Man 2 can see man 3.y Man 3 can see none of the others.y Man 4 can see none of the others.

The criminals are wearing hats. They are told that there are two white hats and two black hats.The men initially don't know what colour hat they are wearing. They are told to shout out thecolour of the hat that they are wearing as soon as they know for certain what colour it is.

y They are not allowed to turn round or move.y They are not allowed to talk to each other.y They are not allowed to take their hats off.

Conclusion: The man makes an overall profit of $10 + $10 = $20.

You can also look at the problem as follows:

The total expenses are $60 + $80 = $140 and the total earnings are $70 + $90 = $160. Theoverall profit is therefore $160 - $140 = $20.

2. 100 Km/hr because that is the top speed of the bus.

3. The man had to reply the number of characters in the word the Doorman was asking. Heshould have replied "Three" instead of "Five".
