How does IQ test actually work?
In: Biology
it compares how well you do on a specific set of puzzles compared to the average of people the same age as you.
these tests are constantly re-calibrated, for example kids these days are pretty good at some of those compared to kids a hundred years ago, so using the old tests kids would now score something like 110 or 120 on average.
a score >100 means you’re better at these puzzles than the average person from your generation, a score <100 means you’re worse than them.
but since the puzzles are often pretty similar between tests, you can actually practice this kind of sequence completion and increase your score this way
