When last did you do an IQ test? If you’re anything like me, the last time was when your parents took you to see some stranger who gave you puzzles and asked weird questions about things that seemed just silly! So, what is your IQ? The acronym, IQ, stands for Intelligence Quotient. There are a few variations of the test, but ultimately, they are a series of questions and puzzles to answer and solve and it provides a measurement of your intellectual abilities and potential.
Most people only get their IQ checked out as a young child, or maybe in high school when applying for colleges. But, what if you are well past that point?
