My IQ

Wahahahha...I've done an IQ test from the BBC website, called Test The Nation, a pretty popular test in the UK recently. Guess what, I was predicted that my IQ is only 85, whahahha, still I'm considered normal, coz 2/3 of the nation scores between 85-115. See the scoreboard here. I'm at the lower end I know !!! But I'm glad that I belong to the majority.

I can't believe I'm so dumb. I have always aware that I have pretty low EQ, now only I realise that my IQ is as "good" as EQ. Overall I think this test is considered all arounded, in terms of logic, puzzle solving, perceptive, observation and memory. I only manage to guess most of the questions to be frank, and I haven't got enough time for almost half of the questions. Perhaps I wasn't ready to be examined that way. Well, I'm not trying to give excuse, I'm simply dumb !!!

One of my Sunday School students scores 142, which is equivalent to top 1% of the nation. Quite impressive I have to say. Having said that sometimes I'm reserved with this kind of IQ, not against the entity of the IQ test but the actual effects of the outcome. It could be really misleading when one starts to absolutise the IQ ability and try to get merits out of it, even worse, discrimination could easily happened. I'm not saying having a high IQ is a bad thing, I just hope that people will start to realise the close relationship between wisdom and IQ (intelligence quotient).

Unless everyone gets back to the bible, else the ultimate purpose to identify the correlation between IQ and wisdom would be defeated.

Proverbs 9:10 - The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
箴 言 9:10 - 敬 畏 耶 和 華 是 智 慧 的 開 端 ; 認 識 至 聖 者 便 是 聰 明 .

What are you waiting for if you only have high IQ?
