I have to agree with the many-pages-ago bit on standardized testing being charitably described as 'bunk'. I 'excelled' through school by merely coasting through and bothering to do the work presented to me, be it hard or busy. The only places I didn't get all A's were in math (post-geometry), as that is a discipline I hate with a passion normally reserved for telemarketers and lawyers, and a couple of goofs were I was intentionally lazy. I bring this up because somebody mentioned the woeful tendency to teach towards the lowest common denominator (see: No Child Left Behind) over the past several decades, as I understand it. (My parents were segregated into A / B / C / D classes with different curriculums. Mom was in A class, dad was in D class, and even then I believe the primary thing was an issue of motivation and not raw mental ability.)
Back on the testing thing, the state standardized test was again something I aced, without trying. I distinctly remember doing the exact opposite of most test prep suggestions (stayed up late, overslept, did not eat breakfast) for at least one of the damn things. My mind being what it is, one of my most vivid high school memories is being deeply confused when my Freshman geography teacher winds up in the lunch line beside me and congratulates me on something. When queried, he informed me of my absurdly high scores which I had completely ignored (or not gotten yet, I don't remember.) It was like being congratulated for not sucking. Which I suppose to some extent, it was.
Another vivid memory surrounds the same tests (at a lower grade level) wherein an acquaintance failed one portion of the test or another and broke down on me, which I found very awkward in that I hate being touched and I had no idea what to say. The only way I could fathom at the time to fail the thing was to either intentionally not do it, be extremely sloppy, or be able to lose a contest of wits to a box of rocks. Funnily enough, I don't remember it as having much to do with the test as being the one time I've had someone crying on my shoulder. Go figure.
Anyway, enough of that crap aside - about the IQ test! I apparently scored 134 - this in less-than-ideal conditions such as 'just woke up' and 'felt the sudden need to go to the restroom in the middle of the test'. I also reported my age as 21 because I'll be so in a few days, though I doubt that impacted it much.
Another, actually related tale from high school was in my first Computer Science class (sophomore year of HS if memory serves), we had a day where the assignment was done and we were jerking around on the Internet. This eventually turned into taking Internet IQ tests as a measure of manhood. I can't remember the exact numbers, but I do remember taking great pleasure in my good friend scoring something like a 148, gloating over it and laughing at me for taking so much time (he was always a faster mathmetician than I), and within a few moments I had pressed submit... And had something in the neighborhood of 5 to 10 points over it. He was crushed.
But yeah, enough rambling.
