Cue my annual "this is pseudo-science at its worst and a waste of my liscence fee" rant to the BBC governers.
Yes I know, but it's all rather cathartic.

Why the BBC puts a test professionals have trouble making sense of into the public realm I don't know. The results are as good as meaningless, and it says nothing of interest about human inteligence, only someone's narrow and subjective perception of it.
Unmitigated cobblers the lot of it.

That's the same test from earlier this year though...I think the one on TV now is the general knowledge one...in which case I got higher than average (cept I can't remember the exact numbers

Was I watching a different programme 
because what the BBC were showing last night had nothing to do with IQ - it was a test your knowledge of 2003 quiz...
I got 62 out of 70. Pretty chuffed.
