Have you ever wondered how intelligent you really are? If you are aged over twelve and a half, this tape - based on a test devised by Prof. R. B. Cattel - is devised to assess your intelligence quotient.

Your age is one of the factors used, so there is no excuse if you are 40-plus and want to compete against your offspring. You can always say they got their brains from you!

The test is in six parts: synonyms, pick the odd one out, opposites, analogy, replace missing words and inferences which is to test reasoning.

Cattell IQ Test

It is designed to last 90 minutes. If your result is above a certain level you are deemed suitable to apply for Mensa membership (Sir Clive belongs!). However, presumably as a sop to your vanity, if your score is lower the booklet says you shouldn't take the results too seriously! This test will not prove conclusively that you are a genius... or otherwise.

You should have no problems with loading and I found no bugs.

No... I'm not going to tell you what I scored.
