For where, show us your working sheet. I am sure you scored not more than 20. Everyone claiming they did their IQ test on this board are claiming high figures.

Why can you people not be honest for christ sake? A country of ret.ards. smh
^^ Of what benefit will it give me to claim the score I did not get. I don't have anything to prove with you. If you like take it and if don't, that's your opinion. For your opinion doesn't count.

That's what I meant, a skewed sample (e.g subjects from a Home for the Mentally Challenged) can create results like this.

ROSSIKE:

IQ tests are completely worthless, and are a mere propaganda tool for racists to air their ignoble ideas. Basing IQ tests on a nation's level of development (which tends to be what happens regardless of their methodology) is the height of stupidity, as it presupposes that developed nations were ''born developed'' and never had to go through the stages that we did, which is the height of lies and propaganda.
.

I stated in an earlier post that we Africans should develop our own IQ & EQ tests that take into consideration our way of life. Even though I don't believe in the whole stuff but it is correlates here in the West. I have done IQ tests before in a Western setting and my score wasn't worse than those of Europeans and Asians but then that was in a select group. I have also lived in more varied European environments than most colleagues and I may even have had an advantage over them. I cannot expect an otherwise brilliant African just coming from Africa to score so high.
It doesn't mean that he's less intelligent or retarded than the Europeans.

When I watch quiz shows here in Europe, I often do quite well in questions about history, geograpghy, maths, science etc but useless in questions about expressions Europeans use routinely at home and events/hit music/films of the time I was not living in Europe.

kindabigg: Lynn and Vanhanen (2006) accorded a national IQ of 69 to Nigeria. Here's the abstract of the paper

GenBuhari: Is the IQ test written in Nigeria's language rather than english and based on things Nigerians understand?.

I reckon that at least a signifanct proportin of the total score would be influenced by these factors.

I wonder what the score of the average english man would be if the test was written in pidgin english and involved questions about popular nigerian pastimes? Do you think the english man could score upto 69?

Your IQ is definitely above 69

You are so right. This thread for instance, assuming, it represents a fair share of the population, should have an average IQ of say 50.

Re: The Average IQ Of Nigeria Is 69 by ba7man(m): 5:30pm On Oct 27, 2012
The problem is not what you scored in an IQ test but what you did with your intelligence. A lot of people might score high but soon after the test pick up their certificate and start job hunting. Why not use that intelligence to create employment for yourself and others??
Re: The Average IQ Of Nigeria Is 69 by ba7man(m): 5:31pm On Oct 27, 2012

Is that your definition of intelligence?? Being a fraud. The bible refers to people like that as "Fools".
Being a "thief" must require a high level of intelligence to you. Sorry but u're part of the reason the score is that low.

Let them test Achebe, Soyinka and Oyebode IQ - theirs might hit 260! But try Obj, Gej,Gowon- theirs might be below 45! That is a typical case in Nigeria! Even on this platform, an average of 40 might be achieved i mean from the over 900k registered (alive or dead) followers!

You don't have a "Big picture" in your empty head jooor, what do u know bout "Big pictures" with the trash u talking. Trying to make yourself happy by pointing out the fact that we "scam" them. You're probably a scammer too. Look at their Countries and look at ours, its people that think like you that pull this nation down.

We claim to be smarter yet they control the world's economy,...90% of what we use is made by them and we still claim to be smarter. We go to their Country to stare at their cites and some people are still trying to prove we're smarter. See our societies, do u see the evidence that we're smarter??...We're still in a transition process but we will get there.

there's no way a person like you can see the big picture, you have labelled me a scammer, thief, fool, an empty head, a reason the iq is so low and a person whose style of thinking pulls this country down all from a few words we exchanged, yet you cower in fear when i ask you a simple question which up till now, you still cannot answer

you know if this were an iq test, you would be classified as mentally reetarded because you cannot prove any of you assertions
not to worry though, according to the oyibo people you would just be an average nigerian since mental reetardardation is classified as an iq of 70 or below

now do you see how they're trying to diss you on the low.........reetard

There is no need to be sentimental. As a matter of fact the IQ of the "average" Nigerian is generally low but that does not mean that Nigeria is devoid of highly intelligent people and geniuses. Having said that, I personally think that the IQ of most (not all) nairalanders is above the Nigerian and world average. Although there are some really dumb posters. Finally as for those making reference to Philip Emeagwali just so you know he has been discovered to be a fraud and a con man. See sources below if you like.

that's exactly how these tests are supposed to make you feel....anybody can tell you that you're dumber than a gorilla, but when you start believing it because the "facts" are there, then your level of expectation drops from competing with humans to competing with gorillas, and you actually become on the same level as a gorilla because that is the highest expectation you have of yourself....it's the oldest trick in the book....unfortunately some on this site have already fallen for it.

"believe and you would achieve" goes both ways
