If you have ten barrels 9 filled with one oz balls and one with 2 oz balls With only one weighing how do you find the barrel with two oz balls?

->Take one ball from barrel one, two from barrel two, three from barrel three, etc.

Weigh the balls. The number of ounces over 55 ounces will indicate which barrel has the heavier balls. If the weight is 60 ounces, barrel 5 has the heavier ones.

What does an IQ of 122 really mean?

You have an upper-average intellect and are capable of higher learning, such as going to college and taking college level courses. But then you can do that with an IQ of 100 or so as well. IQ's are overrated (just my opinion) But if you ask someone who does IQ testing for a living they will tell you that 122 is a very good IQ. It doesn't mean you already know a lot, it means you are capable of learning a lot.

Is 130 a good IQ score for a 16-year-old girl and in what field would I be good with that IQ score?

Your I.Q. is your ability to learn its not that kind of test there is a test that you can take that will find out what you excel in specifically if I where you talk to one of your teacher one you like or talk to a guidance councilor that is there job is to find out what you want to be when you grow up.

PS if you took a test online that gave you this score, you shouldn't take it seriously. online scores are randome and innacurate. don't bother with IQ tests unless they are official and take from four to six hours. 130 is not bad. Also, IQ has nothing to do with age. 130 is above average, for ANY age. 100 is average. 130 is not genius level, but it is good.

What is the average IQ in the US?

According to Lynn and VanHannen's IQ and the Wealth of Nations, the population of the US has an average IQ of 98, with the average IQ of England as the standard at 100. US average IQ ranks 18 from the top as of late 2010.

Average intelligence (the "g" factor") has more relevance than IQ because of the specific characteristics of IQ tests which focus on different facets of intelligence. Average intelligence by racial group arrays as follows:

Oriental - 103

Caucasian - 100

Non-white Hispanic - 90

Black - 84

The US contains about 75 million people with IQ below 85, the level needed to graduate from high school. The average IQ of a nation directly correlates to and determines its productivity (Gross National Product), its level of political liberty, and its level of rule of law. See La Griffe du Lion's Smart Fraction Theory for more information (http://LaGriffeDuLion.com)..

The average IQ of the US falls as the US imports people from third world countries like Mexico (average IQ 87) and Haiti (average IQ 72), and as low IQ people in the USA procreate without restraint.

They had the idea of forming a society for bright people, the only qualification for membership being a high IQ.

How can you tell which of a group of 12 spheres is the lightest or heaviest using three times the balance with two scales?

Unfortunately, the question is far too vague to answer. Do we assume that all 12 spheres are unique and have different weights? Are we to determine the lightest of the 12 or the heaviest -- or both? If all 12 spheres are of different weights, it would take numerous comparisons to isolate the lightest or heaviest ball. If, however, there are 11 identical spheres and one bogus sphere, we could then isolate the counterfeit orb in just three comparisons with just one scale! And we could determine whether it's lighter or heavier than the others!!! I have an elaborate proof of the restated problem, but it is rather complex and difficult to follow without a flowchart. I will post the text of the procedure here if anyone expresses an interest.

What does it mean if you scored 145 on a MENSA IQ test and you are 14?

An "IQ" test is supposed to be an approximation of your 'mental' age compared to your 'physical' age. It's validity is broad, at best, especially with the very young or old. A 145 would mean 145% of a standard 14 year old - - about 20.3 yrs.

AnswerIQ test scores are arranged on a bell curve and a score of 100 should represent the mean, or average, score of those tested. In other words, half of those taking the test should score lower and half should score higher. A score of 145 means that the testee scored higher than approximately 99% of those who took the test. Age is not a factor on a properly constructed IQ test.

However, American Mensa does not inform test takers of their IQ when they take the Mensa exam, only that they have passed or failed. To know that a 14 year old scored a 145 on the Mensa exam would thus not be possible.

AnswerThe previous answers are interesting, but there are some inaccuracies, and neither put forth a straightforward, simple answer.

If you have a score, and you have taken a Mensa test, then you have taken the "Mensa Home Test" (MHT). The MHT is not suitable for admission to Mensa (primarily because it is unsupervised). For that same reason, while your score is moderately interesting, it can't be compared to a score on a supervised IQ test. It's got the same problem as most of the internet IQ tests people claim to do so well on. It's just not a trustworthy result.

With all of that, a high score on the Mensa Home Test (and 145 is a high score) does suggest that you would get in to Mensa if you took their supervised test. As one of the previous answers indicated, the Mensa admission test no longer provides an IQ score -- it's only a pass/fail.

One other thing. The meaning of an IQ of 145 varies, depending upon the IQ test you've taken. Anyone who claims to have an IQ of 145 must be prepared to say exactly on which test this score was achieved. On some tests, a score of 145 would be achieved by about 1 in every 50 people (the top score in a large classroom of people; that's the Mensa standard of the top 2%). On other tests, a score of 145 would represent someone of truly exceptional intelligence. Such a score would be achieved by only 2 or 3 people in a large big-city high school (1 in 1000, or top 1/10 of 1%)

Is a 3.6 GPA in IB courses high enough for admission to good colleges?

Yes, that is a good GPA in challenging courses. That is an excellent factor to have on your side. Just make sure that your other areas (standardized tests, personal essay, references, etc) are also strong. I'm not saying that you're guaranteed to get into any school, but you should be able to find one that would be a good fit for you and that would accept you.

How accurate is the Lorge-Thorndyke IQ test?

It is said that it isn't accurate because it only tests one "type" of intelligence. However it is my opinion that is accurate to a great degree.

[Spelvin adds] The Lorge-Thorndike is, as you may know, a group test, not a test that a skilled examiner gives to an individual. Its "accuracy" is a function of a testing authority's willingness to stay within the guidelines for interpreting and using such test results.

The "Examiner's Manual" for the Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence Test states:

"To evaluate the ... validity of an intelligence test one can examine the items to see if they require a pupil to make responses which one would call 'intelligent'. [Note: This is "face validity."] The items for the Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence Tests were selected so that, for the most part, they deal with relationships. In answering most of the items a pupil is required to find a principle and then apply it. The tests, then, have been designed to measure reasoning ability." [emphasis added]

One example of the limitations of the Lorge-Thorndike IQ test is the finding that in the few studies that have explored its effectiveness for evaluating children with learning disabilities, the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (a test administered to individuals) has emerged as the preferred instrument for that purpose.

Before we agree that the test measures "intelligence" and that it is "accurate," we have a long row to hoe.

On an IQ test if you missed one out of ten questions what is your IQ?

First, an IQ test of only ten questions is not going to be very accurate. One out of ten would be the 90th percentile. Which would be somewhere around 125.
