So, do you play along on your computer, tally your own score by hand, or what?

58/60 cuz I got distracted on the memory section on the street direction question. 134 as well. I don't get why the highest IQ you can have at my age is less than my actual tested IQ.

I didn't play along for the whole show but I am confused about the scoring.
It didn't look like it reflected the usual IQ tests as far as possible scores.
I have taken two 'official' IQ tests in the past that were given by the school I attended and got a 137 and a 142.
According to this show that's off the map but I'm certainly no genius.
What's the deal?

Well, 100 is supposed to be average IQ. However, every demographic they posted was well over 100. Now part of that could be that the numbers all came from people who played along on their computers, and it could be argued that that population already represents a higher intelligence than the non-computer using population. However, it still seems high, plus those questions were laughably easy. So I just think it was a flawed test that was intentionally made easy so people would feel better about themselves after watching.
