The method

§1

Nonverbal

Matrices, sequences, rotations, odd ones out and balances: no vocabulary, no trivia. We measure reasoning, not what you've learned.

§2

A range, not a magic number

With 15 questions, you get your score within a ±6-point range, plus your percentile. A site claiming an exact IQ from 10 questions is overselling.

§3

The standard scale

Mean 100, standard deviation 15: the convention of the Wechsler tests. Your score shows where you stand, not what you're worth.

Frequently asked questions

+Does this test give my “real” IQ?

No. No online test of a few minutes can. You get a playful estimate of your logical reasoning, with a margin of error.

+Is the IQ test really free?

Yes: no sign-up, no email, no payment to see your result.

+How long does the test take?

About 4 minutes for 15 questions. There's no timer: take the time you need.

+What is the average IQ?

By design, the average IQ is 100, and two people out of three score between 85 and 115.

+Can I retake the test?

Yes, every attempt draws new puzzles. But retaking it right away mostly measures your memory.
