With an IQ of 84/85 are you stupid and dumb?

**Mortimer** · 01-24-2020, 03:15 AM

I scored 84 or 85 not sure anymore. There were several tests included like memory, and different tasks and knowledge. I did nothing really good. At a few I was average and a many I was below average. So I was nowhere above average or really good. I scored 84 IQ points. Does that mean Im dumb? Or not functional? Does that mean I cannot achieve academic work? Or I can if I work hard enough?

IQ is a meaningless standard. There are people who are much lower IQ than me living happy successful and fulfilled lives. Real functionality is not 1:1 with IQ.

No, it just means that you are a low normal by the standards of an IQ test.

When I got it tested a few years back it was like 120 or something. Now its probably 105 or lower due to atrophy and drugs.

Did you take an official test, or one online? I've taken some online just for the laughs, and I usually get around 160. I'm nowhere near that level. When I took the official test a few years ago, I got 129.

Either way, your IQ does not reflect how "dumb" you are. For example, someone can be very book smart but have a low IQ. IQ tests mainly test your ability to reason and problem solve, among other things.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.

All I know is I am fully retarded.
Now talking seriously the IQ test is for some specifical areas so it doesn't necessary imply that you are a clever person or not.
Or at least not as a whole.
