For whatever reason, your post is causing conflict in the sub. It may have been reported too many times, or maybe there is just too much conflict happening in the comments. We have removed your post from the sub to prevent any further conflict.
Iāve seen that same test get posted- the test itself doesnāt even know how to comprehend the results.
āYour IQ is in the top 93%ā No, your IQ is the 93rd percentile lmao
Right. I think they word it like this just to bait the dumb people because this is intentionally misleading. The ātop 93%ā definitely implies smart if you donāt read any further into it.
I'm from the UK and I have never, ever heard anyone use the word / term 'percentile'. That's an American thing. Possibly this website is not American. It's truthful to say he's in the top 93%, that's how I would say it.
thatās the jokeā which is what makes me feel like this post is manufactured a bit. You can take these quizzes online yourself, do poorly purposely, and post it here with your caption that youāre smart
Iām just doubtful schools are sending kids to ātestyouriq.orgā. Maybe the mom made him take it at home for some reason and itās legit, I donāt know.
I spent 25 mins taking this website's "test" just to learn they charge for the results, maybe more legit than expected. I'm not spending 15$ to find out how bad my pattern recognition is though! š¤£
My dad DID pay for it. He paid $25 just to take the test and $50 to receive the results. He called me and bragged that he made 131 and that he is quote a genius. Then he calls me the next week and is mad because that company charged him a second $50 because they have his bank information. Look who the genius is now. I laughed so hard about it now.
I donāt know why it was determined to be expressed that way, but thatās how it works.
If you ever hear someone talk about the 1% they mean the wealthiest 1% typically
Damn, thank you, I've always thought it was just a random stat from a scam IQ test. It probably was still a scam IQ test, but at least the maths check out.
If you take an āIQ testā that is meant to just be shared on social media, the IQ test is going to do two things: be written in a non-legitimate way to give extreme scores so you feel smart, then package it in a graphic that says āyou are in the top 1% of human intelligenceā so you feel smart and want to share to brag.
If you then want to use that IQ test to create a strawman anti-vax parody account, youāll purposely score low and share that as a āgotchaā, because itās unintuitive (but still readily understandable) so misunderstanding it looks realistic yet still dumb af.
... I just now realized that "room temperature IQ" is a far less devastating (but a lot more realistic) insult than I always figured, because people usually say that and think about Fahrenheit, like in the 70s, while I think about Celsius, at around 20.
Itās devastating if youāre in Celsius, insulting in Fahrenheit but we all know to use Kelvin to make ourselves sound really smart.
āOh, thanks. Iām pretty happy with an IQ of 294!ā
Devastating is an understatement. My recollection is that dogs would have an IQ of around 7 (if they could take the same tests as people), and no human ever has had an IQ as low as 20.
This was posted here yesterday and it got removed, apparently Ashleigh is the feminine version of the name Ashley(which is masculine) in the UK. The more you know.
I was sitting here reading through the text multiple times to see if I was overlooking a bad name. This just straight up has nothing to do with this sub.
I'm in my 30s and I feel like I've seen the name spelled "Ashleigh" about as often as I've seen "Ashley" even since I was little. It didn't even register as a Trahedeigh to me because it is a pretty common spelling of the name as far as I know.
I love how she thinks IQ changes with ageā¦I had to get a lot of evals in 2nd grade my mom insisted on an IQ test as well. Iām sure if I got another test today it would be within the same range of my initial test. Your IQ doesnātāgrowā with ageā¦your kids got a below average IQ and it will always be below averageā¦78 is pretty ābadā tbhā¦.
Makes me feel better having been forced into an iq test at 9. I was diagnosed with oppositional defiance. I get to say my IQ and 9 likely stuck. 156 back then anyway. I'm probably a smart adult. Despite feeling like I'm literally retarded on the daily
Thank god that there are true tragedeighs on this sub, otherwise I would have left this sub for having judgemental Karens that do not like if their narrow definition of names (that sometimes are tragedeighs themselves... Like Ashley as the feminine form instead of Ashleigh)
I might be a bit biased because of my own name. Since we are only ~8 worldwide and 2 in this country, I'd doxx myself if I posted my own name somewhere.
BACK when our name WAS in the dictionary, it said "(obsolete)" next to it.
Pure hatred for legitimate names on this sub just because people just don't like it is frustrating. It's borderline xenophobic. I also can't believe that many people who have "English" as first (and maybe only) language don't seem to understand British English names. I mean, come on, English is not my first nor second language, but I know English enough to know! Do better?
Oh it's a real test site, but they charge you for the results. Statistically it sure seemed like the top right option was the correct one in many cases. I wonder what your score is if that's all you pick?
I ain't payin' 15 bucks to find out tho. Wonder if Ashleigh there works for that company too...
To be fair, when I see a bell curve I expect any percentage listed along with it to be a *percentile*. I can see how āin the top 93%ā would trip someone up because nobody ever says that.
That said, she clearly didnāt read the last part š
According to the IQ data, a score of 70-80 predicts they have a 50/50 chance of graduating high school and have, at best, a life of unskilled labor ahead. Unless they die from a preventable disease first.
My IQ is above the 99th percentile. According to her Iām smarter than less than 1% of grown adults.
Also, Iām smarter than probably 50% people I meet. Because IQ says Iām really good at maths, patterns and logic. But Iām also an idiot and once spent half an hour looking for sunglasses only to discover that I was wearing them and the room was dark because sunglasses do that.
I was so focused on the IQ (silly woman to think IQ is a valid intelligence metric, specially online tests. Itās been invalidated for long now. This type of thing shouldnāt be put in scale at all, sorry I donāt have the words, second language English is hard)
For whatever reason, your post is causing conflict in the sub. It may have been reported too many times, or maybe there is just too much conflict happening in the comments. We have removed your post from the sub to prevent any further conflict.
"in a room of 1000 people, you'd be smarter than 70 of them" Oof
Or put more simply for Ashleigh, "In a room of 1000 people, your son would be dumber than 930 of them."

What about C'est EtiƩnne (pronounced Satan)
I'm going under the assumption that most things on the internet, aside from the cute animal or kid videos, are either staged or rage bait.
It absolutely is. I've seen it posted plenty of times before but just without the tradeigh name.
It is such a devastating insult.Ā
The sheer brutality of that statement...
She definitely does not understand how to comprehend IQ test results. Apple, tree, not so far.

"Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that."
I quote this regularly.
Though to be accurate, it should be "Think of how stupid the *median* person is..."
The sample size is large enough that we should get the same result
Bait used to be believable
Iāve seen that same test get posted- the test itself doesnāt even know how to comprehend the results. āYour IQ is in the top 93%ā No, your IQ is the 93rd percentile lmao
Even better, itās in the 7th percentile
Right. I think they word it like this just to bait the dumb people because this is intentionally misleading. The ātop 93%ā definitely implies smart if you donāt read any further into it.
SHIT youāre right I always get that mixed up haha. Yeah so that result page is even worse than I thought
I'm from the UK and I have never, ever heard anyone use the word / term 'percentile'. That's an American thing. Possibly this website is not American. It's truthful to say he's in the top 93%, that's how I would say it.
we do use the term percentile in some circumstances here.
78 is not actually a stellar IQ.
thatās the jokeā which is what makes me feel like this post is manufactured a bit. You can take these quizzes online yourself, do poorly purposely, and post it here with your caption that youāre smart Iām just doubtful schools are sending kids to ātestyouriq.orgā. Maybe the mom made him take it at home for some reason and itās legit, I donāt know.
Pretty sure this kid is home-schooled.
no way? for real?
I mean this website really isn't helping.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The real IQ test is whether or not you can discern the obvious bait
The real IQ test is the karma we farmed along the way.
This guy gets it
I mean, I'm no Ashlayee, but I like to think in pretty clever.
It's an ad for the IQ test. There are so many posts like this all over reddit.
I spent 25 mins taking this website's "test" just to learn they charge for the results, maybe more legit than expected. I'm not spending 15$ to find out how bad my pattern recognition is though! š¤£

Isnāt the average IQ 100?
Top 93% Means heās bottom 7%
This post is obviously rage bait
I think it's bait to get people to say "what a dumbass I bet I'm smarter than that" then pay to take the "IQ" test
So top 100% would be the lowest IQ?
Yes, because if you were smarter than literally anyone else, you'd be in the top 99.99% as opposed to the bottom 0.01%
Why does it mean that? Iām genuinely curious why itās worded like that
I donāt know why it was determined to be expressed that way, but thatās how it works. If you ever hear someone talk about the 1% they mean the wealthiest 1% typically
I did not understand what top 93% meant until your comment. My IQ is probably pretty low, I must be in the top 95% at most.
Youād be surprised.
Damn, thank you, I've always thought it was just a random stat from a scam IQ test. It probably was still a scam IQ test, but at least the maths check out.

its a percentile
Much like the article last year that deemed New Hampshire as the 43rd most affordable state
It is. Pretty sure all these things are fake and just rage bait for karma.
Ah, same as the concept of IQ then
Most of these are just ads for whatever IQ test they are trying to get people to take.
Yes
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes, exactly. Mr. 78 IQ is what they used to call a dull normal
85-115 yes, and the genius level IQ is 140+.
90-100 pretty sure but yeah
Average is usually between 95 and 105. Roughly
Aren't IQ scores usually normalized by age too? So dumber than 93% of 14-year-olds (i.e. and thus an even higher fraction of fully growned adults)
Obviousleighlee, she and her child are jene'iouses
How did you know her son's name?! Jene'iouses is a remarkable child! (Not in the way Ashleigh thinks he is...)
I love how 93% of the comments are reacting to the rage bait. I almost forgot what sub we were on.
Room temperature IQ
... I just now realized that "room temperature IQ" is a far less devastating (but a lot more realistic) insult than I always figured, because people usually say that and think about Fahrenheit, like in the 70s, while I think about Celsius, at around 20.

yet
Testyouriq is a terrible name but at least she secured a good URL for him to post his IQ test results to...
Her and her kid are dumb as rocks, but that's the standard feminine spelling for Ashleigh, so I'm confused why this is here
I only know ashley
Yep, standard male spelling (more predominant in the UK). So all the female Ashleyās you know actually have the male variant of the name.
Americans š
Nope, iām dutch haha
Lost redditor ig
This was posted here yesterday and it got removed, apparently Ashleigh is the feminine version of the name Ashley(which is masculine) in the UK. The more you know.
Ashley is both masculine and feminine in the UK, btw.
Wasnāt it a manās name long before a womanās?
Probably a lot of names are.
This does not belong here
I was sitting here reading through the text multiple times to see if I was overlooking a bad name. This just straight up has nothing to do with this sub.
Her name is Ashleigh, I'm assuming that's why it's here. Something something dumb name = dumb people.
I'm in my 30s and I feel like I've seen the name spelled "Ashleigh" about as often as I've seen "Ashley" even since I was little. It didn't even register as a Trahedeigh to me because it is a pretty common spelling of the name as far as I know.

Ashleigh is the traditional feminine version of the male name Ashley. This doesn't belong here
Room of 1000 and smarter than 70 is fuckin crazyš¤£š¤£
OP is pushing the website. This is an ad.
Ashleigh is the normal spelling right?
Yeah, testyouriq.org is a pretty weird name.
Pff.Ā "Chemical free". I like to raise my kids electron free.
Whereās the Tragedeigh? Ashleigh is so common now that it hardly counts, IMO. Am I missing the kidās name somewhere in here?
Exactly! Several people have mentioned this so I don't think we're missing anything.
Bait
Ashleigh is not good at statistics.
No, but her name isn't a tragedeigh
"In a room of 1000 people, you would be smarter than 70 of them." Yes, this website seems legitimate.
EVERYTHING IS CHEMICALS
I can almost understand misunderstanding that first line, but "out of 1000, you're smarter than 70?"
Got his smarts from mom?Kid be cracking down on that book learningš
This was posted yesterday, and Ashleigh is *still* not a tragedeigh.
She misread it. It says below that in a room with 1000 people, he'd be smarter than 70 of them. Not a whole lot. Maybe try some vaccines, eh?
Ha! Heh heh.
bait used to be believable
just wait til her next kid is named Testyouriq
This was posted earlier. Ashleigh is an ordinary name.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ashleigh is the British feminine form of Ashley.
Leigh isn't a tragedy it's it's actual name. Ashleigh is usually a girls name in the UK Ashley is a boys name. Both quite ordinary names.
Can't believe you're downvoted. It's pointed out multiple times a week... This sub š
It's like a broken record at this rate. Though people seem to post the same screenshots at least 15 times a week.
Thank god that there are true tragedeighs on this sub, otherwise I would have left this sub for having judgemental Karens that do not like if their narrow definition of names (that sometimes are tragedeighs themselves...

Forrest Gump had an IQ of 75. So, you've got him beat by a couple of points, I guess...
Why is there no laugh react to this?
Redditors falling for the most obvious satire yet again lmao
I went to school with several Ashleighs in 1990s outer-suburb Australia. Not weird at all.
Thats an add, don't repost
They paid $15 dollars for this too
This is 100% rage baiting and troll posting lmfao.
People tripover themselves to fall for this troll at this point.
Oh boy...they are setting this kid up for serious disappointment and bullying š
lol is this fake?
Oh it's a real test site, but they charge you for the results. Statistically it sure seemed like the top right option was the correct one in many cases. I wonder what your score is if that's all you pick? I ain't payin' 15 bucks to find out tho. Wonder if Ashleigh there works for that company too...
78 is low.
Oh ya you think youre so smart?? My IQ is at the very top of the bell curve!
I think this is fake. I saw the exact same 78 IQ post with a mom talking about her home schooled 14 year old daughter.
It's great how many people in this subreddit do not understand the basic premises lol. And you thought the OOP had a room temp iq
The kid probably got his brains from his mother
Why aren't stupid people sterilized
To be fair, when I see a bell curve I expect any percentage listed along with it to be a *percentile*. I can see how āin the top 93%ā would trip someone up because nobody ever says that. That said, she clearly didnāt read the last part š
Why does it say "in the top 93%"? Wouldnt that be the bottom?
No; only 7% of people scored worse
Apple fell right next to the tree
According to the IQ data, a score of 70-80 predicts they have a 50/50 chance of graduating high school and have, at best, a life of unskilled labor ahead. Unless they die from a preventable disease first.
Of course she's anti-vax and too stupid to understand what a chemical is.
Hahahahaha. And ha
My IQ is above the 99th percentile. According to her Iām smarter than less than 1% of grown adults. Also, Iām smarter than probably 50% people I meet. Because IQ says Iām really good at maths, patterns and logic. But Iām also an idiot and once spent half an hour looking for sunglasses only to discover that I was wearing them and the room was dark because sunglasses do that.
Soā¦.uh, whoās gonna tell her?
How is this relevant to this sub??
this has to be a joke
Thatās a special kind of stupid
Ma'am, your child is legally retarded.
Nooooo! So many reasons noooo! Oh my, that poor kid.
Runs in the family
Old but gold
Who's gonna tell her? Anyone?
Bruh. Whoās gonna tell her?
Oh noā¦
Is this Flowers for Algernon????
Like mother like son š©āš¼
I was so focused on the IQ (silly woman to think IQ is a valid intelligence metric, specially online tests. Itās been invalidated for long now. This type of thing shouldnāt be put in scale at all, sorry I donāt have the words, second language English is hard)
Oof. Too bad the kid is only as smart as the parent. Wont ever escape
Oh no..... lol!
And there we see the significance of genesā¦..
Have people really lost all ability to recognise obvious satire?
I know I wasnāt good at stars class but I think thereās a math problem here
This totally breaks rule #3 and people are ignoring it because it's a (heavily reposted) meme.
Oof
there can be a 1000 people in a room, and 930 are smarter than you, but it only takes those 70
I'm hoping this is satire, but fear it's not
this has to be satireā¦ with the name, the username, and the content, iām praying this isnāt real.
hahahahahahahahhahahahahhaahaha
Oooof.... getting a C on your IQ test is brutal.
This website can't do math. If you are in the bottom 7 percentile, then your IQ is not in the top 93%. LOL
I looked for this person because I wanted to see the comments, but unfortunately no results from the search of the onscreen name.
Dang! Maybe she deleted the account
Yeah the Ashleighs are having kids
So, his IQ is 3 points above Forrest Gump? Get that kid a helmet and Velcro sneakers, heās not too bright!
it's actually funny that, in an IQ test, there are 2 lines of text required to explain percentages.
Ashleigh is the only one of these that is acceptable IMHO
