I am not fond of test that measure intelligence. We all have our areas of knowledge. Some ppl have the ability to reason well...while others fair more in wisdom.
My scores in life: I am not bragging.
-ASVAB test for military- I was 4 points away from a perfect score. My dream was to go to West Point.

-IQ test- The real one...takes hours. I got a 123 is H.S. Now? I lose about 5 point everytime I play Myth. I play alot. I am sure you know the averages and ect.

-Ohio ACT's- I got a 26.

-Online IQ tests- these really suck and give you no clue. I range from 148-167. I am no genius.

I went to Kent state..and Malone colleges. I passed out most of my freshman year. I studied psychology, acounting and architecture. Aiming for a minor in corporate law and a few others. I left never getting a degree..I am poor and so was my family. I don't regret a minute of not getting a degree.

I became an emerency medical tech/firefighter. Loved that job for 2.5 years.

My goals now are to keep the boring ars job I have now till my kids are done with school. After that (10 more years), I plan on sitting back with my vacation properties...and begin to write. I love books and plan on being a writer. Will I be a good one? who knows..I do practice alot. My son is my biggest fan. Right now I write for him. Every month he can't wait till I get some pages done.

That is about it....from my education stand point. In life I have learned 10 times more than school. I think of myself as somewhat self-educated. I read alot in the subjects of:
Literature
History
Religion
Philosophy
Biographies
Mythology
I am a sucker for true stories...and a big time movie buff.

Anything else ya want to know? I hope I answered your question.

Remember IQ means nothing..Einstein couldn't remember his own telephone number. He had to paint his front door "red" so he could find which house was his. Abraham Lincoln was a self-educated man. I could go on and on...
We are who we are......I find a kind person more appealing than some genius. Intelligence will not get you respect from me :) Play me a few games of Myth and I will love you forever.
