Testing My IQ


The IQ Scores

As expected my scores were not high but it was average. I cannot say that I am happy with it, but definitely glad it wasn't as bad as I thought. I think my scores might be able to improve if I had more time to do the test. In class, there was only approximately 40 mins left to do the IQ test after we got settled down. There were many questions that need more than just 3 seconds to answer. It was hard to concentrate because I felt like I was running out of time. Therefore, if I had more time then my scores might be a little bit better.



Birth Order Affects IQ?

There were some tests in the past to see if birth order affected the intelligence level of a child. According to Francis Galton there are several reasons why he believes that the order of birth affects eminence. One of his reasons was that the firstborn son has the advantage of having a better education since they probably have more financial resources. However, that cannot really prove anything because Galton is only talking about first MALE child. What about the female? Therefore, the reasons for birth order to affect someone's IQ could be possible, but the results to show it is very uncertain.
