[QUOTE="Fladian, post: 126339, member: 5833"] Schools tend to make use of IQ tests, Jupackazoin. They usually give the students something very similar to an IQ test to see if they are capable of following everything that is being educated on that school. If a student scores far lower than the average, the chance is extremely likely that the student will not be accepted on the school and a 'special' school is recommended, which is not always a bad thing. I've done two different of such tests in all my years of college now, as I mentioned before. Despite doing my best on the first, I pretty much ignored the second one. In all honestly, I can't remember much about the first one, but the second (which was not too long ago) went quite smoothly except for the math and calculations questions, which I am unfortunately quite weak at. I score higher than the average on the test itself but the personality they tested didn't seem to be very accurate. Later on I heard from a good friend that her personality test wasn't very accurate either. "According to to that test, I'm not very friendly and I hate working together," was the result of a friend of mine (and it was the Quote of the Day from the 10th of June) Besides schools, there are also numerous of organisations and companies that demand that you take such a test before they are going to hire you. In this case you must mostly think of work which mistakes can be crucial if not fatal. In both situations I mentioned, an off day from the mind can both play a role, but because of the way the tests are formatted, it is unlikely that you can have an off day. In the general schools case it usually end up with quite simple questions and they just test you on logical thinking (with specialized schools as exception). At those organisations and companies I mentioned, they mostly force you to think constantly. If you are unable to score decently then it means you are not constant enough or simply not good enough. Eitherway, it is not acceptable. At specialty schools (Which is called University here, but numerous of other countries also have Universities but with a different meaning; what I mean is the highest level of school available after choosing (and graduating) from a specific study course; I am in College, which is optional after high school) you will (often) gain a test that will decide if you are good enough for that school. However, if you score lower than the average (or simply not high enough) then you (probably) won't get a recommendation because they are not searching for students to enter the school. Those would be uses of IQ tests. [/QUOTE]
