Testing your intelligence

1. I do not think my score reflects my intelligence. I think intelligence is based on many

factors, and any test can only assess certain aspects of intelligence. And these aspects do
not just include solving puzzles and following a pattern of numbers. Intelligence is
knowledge learned and life experiences, such as understanding concepts, critical
thinking, interpreting, rationalizing and problem-solving.

2. The type of question that was easiest for me was finding the correct word for a
synonym, antonym, analogy, and the meaning of a word. I found that I could answer
these questions quickly and without hesitation.

3. The question that was most challenging was the number series. I could not figure out
the pattern of numbers when trying to add and subtract to determine what number
would come next, and I could not get the right answer.

4. My strengths and weaknesses do not make sense based on real life because I was always
weak at writing and figuring out the right words to use in essays. But I was always very
good in math, so it was surprising that I had such difficulty with the number series
question.

5. I do not think intelligence tests like these effectively assess intelligence because they do
not show strengths and weaknesses accordingly. It does not capture the full range of
human intelligence, especially non-cognitive aspects such as creativity, practical
problem-solving and emotional intelligence. These tests may offer some insight into
specific cognitive abilities, but they cannot measure all types of intelligence.
