Warning: don’t take the test before having signed up for a membership thingee! You wouldn’t want to take eight pages worth of mindwrecking questions, and find out at the end that you need to sign up first!

Congratulations, Sharleena!
Your IQ score is 124.
Our analyses indicate that your Intellectual Type is: Visual Mathematician. This means that among other things, you have superior skills in mathematics and spatial reasoning.
hmmmm…Including the ones i answered randomly?

Bob, Bob, Bob…tough break, man. Your IQ is a mere 69.95.
Our analysis indicates you are doomed to a dull life as an internet curmudgeon and general pest. Have you checked your long-term astrological forecast lately? An offshoot of the IQ analysis indicates you will spend your retirement years sharing a nursing home double with some guy named Joe Travers. His scores are also quite abysmal. May we suggst less time surfing the internet and more time pursuing real life experiences?
Wow…pretty brutal, I’d say - and astrological forecast, besides!

Way to go Sharl! You realize your IQ is well above average, do you?
October 14th, 2002 at 12:00 pm »
Bob, no reason for panic… it could as well have been 47.95…

My IQ is 113 and also I was told I was a Precision Processor. Is that good?
August 13th, 2003 at 6:16 am »
It said that my IQ is 124. Is that good or bad ? Also it said that i am a precision processor.A what ? so how did i fare ? im a lawyer and im curious i well i fared. It had a picture of Phytagoras - a famous mathematician i encountered in 2nd tear high school.
August 14th, 2003 at 10:47 pm »
I took the test and it told me that my score was 134, and that I am Precision Processor and then after retaking it and essentially giving the same answers it told me that my score was 133 and that I was a Visual Mathematician, go figure!
August 18th, 2003 at 8:14 am »
Got 135 but I was half asleep, seems I am a Precision Processor. What we all want to know “where does this rank me?”. I heard the average IQ is something like 100, but that depends on who you believe
August 27th, 2003 at 1:29 pm »
Says my IQ is 131, and also a precision processor: good in math & logic. Funny I pretty much failed math classes from age 6 till graduating NYU.

MY SCORE: 113
Ding Ding Ding, We have a winner Bob: Precision Processor. Yes I too received this honorable statement, but what does it really mean?
“I’m exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to problems, especiallone that involve math and or logic. I’m also resourceful and able to think on my feet.” ……………. The following link will explain, The Practical Significance of your IQ. It will explain the old question, “Is an IQ of 113 good or what?”. : http://www.geocities.com/rnseitz/Definition_of_IQ.html . . . . . . . . . . . . . p.s. Happy Birthday Me.

I just wanted to add somthing about the whole IQ test thingy. What or when is the best time to do this type of test? I have been home for about 2 hours prior to taking the test. I drove for 8 hours across 660 miles after having a wedding in the family on Sunday and a major bbq on Saturday. I feel that maybe if I had been more awake I would have done better… or would I have? I will be taking the IQ test for my 2nd and last time. I’d really like to take it for real, with a piece of paper, a #2 pencil and the test… I bet I could tack on another 10 points for a total of 123 or higher….
September 5th, 2003 at 2:54 am »
no kidding.
I was hoping to find a definition of “precision processor” yes, me too, I scored 127 (hung-over after sleeping on my friend’s water-bed–and if time is a factor, i was multi-tasking on a really slow modem…).
Apparently there are a lot of precision processors out there that are curious enough about their own intellect to converge on a random-ass web-page.
Is someone conducting research on us?
who has the answers? What is a Precision Processor!?
September 5th, 2003 at 9:51 pm »
yeah, same here, precision processor and an iq of a 120. I bet in real life it’s higher ’cause English is my second language so it should be higher if I took a test where I would actually understand most of the difficult words right…?
September 15th, 2003 at 10:32 pm »
Your IQ score is 126
We also compared your answers with others who have taken the test, and according to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual Type is a Precision Processor.
This means you’re exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to problems, especially ones that involve math or logic. You’re also resourceful and able to think on your feet.

I tested 134 , procision processer, I dropped school at 10th grade, heavy equip operator now, 46yo, and I still feel stupid. Maybe I aint and that is why I hate incompentant idiots. LOL
September 28th, 2003 at 4:41 am »
hahahahahahahahahahhaah
I took this test and answered all questions wrong, ON PURPOSE.. they gave me a 79 whoah!!!! should have been minus 20
BUT I TOO QUALIFY AS A PRECISION PROCESSOR.. And I hate standing on my feet
September 29th, 2003 at 7:07 am »
I got a “Procision Processor”. Is it good?
October 1st, 2003 at 2:00 am »
I just took the test and look what i got 111.. is that good or not? and it says that i am also a Procision Processor. after reading all these comments that were posted on here, it occurred to me that maybe the tests thing is not real at all. are they just messing with our minds or are they doing it seriously? if they are just joking around then they should be taken off the stupid interent.
i’m sure all of you others agree with me.
October 1st, 2003 at 10:16 am »
I want to know about precision processor intellect.
October 2nd, 2003 at 12:50 am »
I also was handed a generous I.Q. score along with the standard Precision Processor speil, and I decided that it simply meant I was specially adept…at taking I.Q. tests.
October 6th, 2003 at 4:04 am »
Well, I just took my I.Q test and i’m not so sure what a precision processor mean. Can you explain?
October 7th, 2003 at 6:41 pm »
Your Intellectual Type is a Precision Processor. You’ve got a very experiential way of learning and a strong mathematical mind. You’re able to whittle even the most complex situation down to comprehensible component parts. In short, you have mastered the art and science of precision. That’s what makes you a Precision Processor.
For you, life is a series of equations. Your brain is naturally predisposed to intense mathematical acuity, and your understanding of numerical problems is unparalleled. It’s second nature for you to cut to the heart of an issue, so that you can discover quick solutions to problems while others get bogged down in unnecessary details.
One Precision Processor that comes to mind is the Greek philosopher-mathematician, Pythagoras. Pythagoras had a mind for numbers and, as such, could come up with previously unknown theories like his method for calculating the sides of a right triangle (a2+b2=c2). You too, can use numbers to translate aspects of the world around you something that doesn’t come easily to everyone. Your quick mathematical mind will allow you to communicate a variety of ideas to other people, so don’t keep it to yourself.
Precision Processors can apply their mathematical skills to any situation involving numbers. That’s a talent that will come in handy for everything from the workplace to splitting a bill 12 ways to converting foreign currency in your head. Others often look to you to do the math and luckily, you’re well equipped.
Great Jobs For You
Because of the way you process information, these are just some of the many careers in which you would excel:
* Scientist
* Mathematician
* Accountant
* Data Analyst
* Musician
* Astronomer
* Researcher
* Physicist
Some of Your Greatest Talents
You’ve got tons of strengths. It wouldn’t surprise us if you:
* Are resourceful
* Are detail oriented
* Are highly efficient & economical
* Are lightening quick with responses
* Think in numbers
* Are experimental

I CAN TELL YOU ALL WHAT THIS IQ CRAP MEANS IT MEANS ALL OF YOU HAVE GOT THE IQ OF A LEMMING FOR TAKING THE TEST IN THE FIRST PLACE ….GO FIND A CLIFF AND THROW YOUR SELF OFF IT …OR IF YOU DONT WANT TO DO THAT SEND ME YOUR MONEY INSTEAD
October 7th, 2003 at 11:56 pm »
Hello,
I did 124 also and was told to be a Precision Processor… Is that coincidence or did i just happen to come to the same place where all of the other “my kind” came to. What could bring so many smae kind of people to same site to comment their IQ test scores.. was it because Google link me here or is this one of those desteny things… i don´t know.. Hey, by the way i hope you are ready to accept that Arnie is going to become the next Covernor of California… The futurama was so “rigth” or Matt Groening actually.. could that be one of the other coincidences today.. maybe

PRECISION PROCESSOR 120: That is me and obviously everyone else, gee, I was starting to think I’m smart!
Definition according to Webster:
Precision: precise, exact, measurement of accuracy
Processor: one that processes
Wow, now doesn’t that tell you a lot!!!
October 25th, 2003 at 8:37 am »
Very odd I googled my “PRECISION PROCESSOR” I think that’s why we are all oddly gathered here! =))
October 28th, 2003 at 12:53 am »
do you believe in IQ test?well, just wondering, i just came here in america, which means i’m not fluent in english. if i got a low score in the IQ test, does that mean that i’m dumb because i do not understand the questions which are written in a language i’m not very familiar with. does that mean that people that were born in america are smart, just because they speak english? i’ve anwered some english languages in the test you know, if i got it wrong does that mean, that i’m only good at math, like what i’ve got in my test?
October 29th, 2003 at 3:27 am »
hehe, I got a 131 and am a precision processor as well..what an ego boost for a guy who just got fired by an engineering firm for being a total space case and being totally UN-detail oriented. wooo hoooo….we are the champions, we are the champions….sing along everybody!
November 5th, 2003 at 3:36 am »
Heheh, yet another precision processor at 126. I think we all got roped into some bizarre IQ test, then googled our way to finding out what a precision processor is. I suppose that suits us. Hey Carrie. Tied ya.
Oh, what was the answer to that five shapes question with objects superimposed on other objects and with the triangles connected to a box by a straight line? Took me 30 seconds to figure out I’m not a genius on that one.

This is kind of weird. i guess you might say i’m some kind of math whiz at my school, so i expected to get a higher score then 148 you know what i’m say’in?
November 6th, 2003 at 10:59 pm »
Are you guys jealous of my 148 score? HUH,HUH,HUH,HUH? he,he,he.

Maybe some of your answers which you thought were
wrong turned out to be right?
For being able to give the wrong answer opn purpose you need to know what is the correct answer and if you knew all the correct answers to all of the questions you we’re a genius, but
maybe you aren’t
In this IQ test are different kind of questions.
I guess the title ‘precision processor’
doesn’t just refer to the total score we got,
but rather to the kind of questions we performed
exceptionally good….
The pure score number doesn’t contain any information without refering to the scale it
belongs to. I tried to search the internet for finding any information about the scale they used,
but no such luck.
I scored 129 but guess I would have performed slightly better if I understood all the questions.
I’m german and there were some words I didn’t knew, but I was too lazy to look in the dictionary
for it.
So - quote:
“do you believe in IQ test?well, just wondering, i just came here in america, which means i’m not fluent in english. if i got a low score in the IQ test, does that mean that i’m dumb because i do not understand the questions which are written in a language i’m not very familiar with. does that mean that people that were born in america are smart, just because they speak english? i’ve anwered some english languages in the test you know, if i got it wrong does that mean, that i’m only good at math, like what i’ve got in my test?”
Well, of course you have to understand the questions, else the test isn’t reliable -
that is a banal truth - but does it make the test
unreliable IF you understand the question?
If you didn’t even understood the question
your test-result doesn’t contain any information.
But that doesn’t imply the slightest, that my
test-result as well doesn’t contain any information IF I understood (most of) the question.
So far I seem to be the best proof among you
that the test is reliable

… and with that said, ladies and gentlemen, fellow Precision Processors, I am closing this thread. I feel stupid enough having the lowest IQ score among all of these commenters (but hey: I was quite drunk when I took it! Plus: english is not my first language! cough cough); but also: this post now turns up as #1 search result for “precision processor” on google. We can’t have that happen! Get this: we here at KUR know zilch nada zip about Precision Processors, and intend to keep it that way. Dumbo, Go Away, so to speak…
