Wow thanks Maynaris(Hope i remembered that right)
I just realised i fall into this category...
The Personal Intelligences--includes interpersonal feelings and intentions of others--and intrapersonal intelligence--the ability to understand one's
own feelings and motivations. These two intelligences are separate from each other. Nevertheless, because of their close association in most cultures,
they are often linked together."
IQ test's are no way to measure a persons intelligence, i have a friend who is very clever, i have many great intellectual conversations with him and
hes very knowledgable but he did one of those online IQ tests and he got something below average.
I also did the same IQ test and got something like 102 i dont know the average of IQ's but i like the 100 figure so im not bothered.
Also i remember me and my missus doing the National IQ test, i think it was either BBC or ITV not quite sure, but she got something like 96 and i got
84 ( I was not happy!Not because of the score just that she beat me) and there were questions like "What was the big event in the media in February
2002?" the answer was related to some celebrity/pop star who did something out of character!
Now this cannot be used to measure anyones intelligence, i choose to ignore certain things in life... mostly being A-List celebrities on the front
page of tabloid newspapers because they let their nipple slip at an award or they got married etc etc, this annoys the hell out of me because there
are more important issues in the world which goes unnoticed to the general public which they should know, not be fed this celebrity BS.
(But i suppose certain issues dont sell as good)
Anyway thats my opinion.
