I qualify, do I get a cookie?
Yeah I took the TA3 and forgot to take the screenshot before I went back here to post =/
I didn't do all that great, only a 131.
Well take it again. I'd like to see. The screenshot too. I took it and got a 127...so I guess that is alright. I have a screenshot if you want to see mine :).
Who can get the highest! Chess.com members post your score on the IQ test!
YOUR IQ SCORE IS:
133
I took the test and scored 55, no wonder I usually stumble in stairs, what does this say about my chess future?
study hard, try to get a coach, read everything you can on every phase of the game, play play play play play and play some more...

Before pride cometh the fall & all that. Humans are smart but so far we're not smart enough not to befoul our own collective nest. The dinasours managed to rules for over a hundred millions years & it took an astroid to take them out, we're doing it (creating a mass extinction event) without an extraterrestrial help. Time will tell how smart we really are.
I wasn't meaning this to be an IQ discussion, I wasn't trying to brag or anything :(
And Ozzie, for playing strength, do you think there is a certain phase or part of a game a player like me should be working on?
Thanks again everyone,

I actually think you were trying to brag about your I.Q....otherwise what is the point of mentioning it. Everyone has an ego so don't be self-decieved about your motives.
To your rating and the ability to become a master?
Yes I have no doubt that if you've only been playing for less than a year and have already reached 1800 level online you have a good shot.
However, looking over you live games vs. your online games I see a huuuuge change in level of play.
Your online chess seems almost like a different level of player all together.
Online CC chess and Live chess are a whole different ballgame, and not only that but generally CC chess is inflated by 200-600 rating points.
IQ means nothing. Do a specific IQ test in maths, that will be much more relevant.
Much more relevant? IQ is a test of general knoledge.
