      I did an IQ test when I was younger, I can’t remember my score.

      I think IQ tests are a waste of time, they only give a vague indication of how clever you are. They are mostly only good for finding out how good at IQ tests you are.

      I haven’t done an IQ test as far as I know. I don’t think they are very good at telling how intelligent you are – just how good you are at doing those tests. Lots of people learn in different ways – some are better at exams, some at projects, some are better with pictures, and some with words.

      Intelligence is a very difficult thing to measure, and I believe everyone is a genius in something!

      I have never done a test. I once considered applying for Mensa as I like logic challenges, but then I discovered the cost which put me off.
