    I never did reply to that.
    something I had pounded into my brain after scoring very high on my first IQ test by my grandfather. “ A high IQ means next to nothing, if you don’t do anything with it! “.
    He also explained the differences between all the IQ tests and how they were not all equal and you could score higher on one than an other.
    He explained how your desire to learn and understand things combined with how well you can retain information will set you farther apart than someone with a high IQ alone.
    Hence why I never considered myself smart based on a single test score.

    Actual 5th wheel grease is like $6 a tube, and that will last me for several weeks. And I grease pretty often because I personally know a fellow that didn’t keep his 5th wheel lubed up, and 1 day he was going around a corner and that 5th wheel bound up and he was unable to straighten out and wrecked the truck. Not worth it, I’ll happily spend 6 buck every once in a while

    Yes, a score of 120 might put one in the 90th percentile on some IQ tests, while a score of 120 might only be, say, the 85th percentile on other IQ tests.

    I also think a person needs to take several IQ tests to have a more accurate estimate of his or her IQ. I have taken several IQ tests. I took an online IQ test. I took a self-scoring IQ test that I ordered at Amazon.com. And I paid a psychologist to administer the Weschler's Adult Intelligence Scales IQ test to me. I always score around 117-118, which is in the 87th percentile on all three IQ tests I took.
