/lit/ - Literature

It certainly is better than having a 90iq and not being able to post literature related things on a literature board, OP.

>>11092856
I have no Idea what my IQ is, but I'm getting a 3.0 GPA, so I feel like this post describes me and I'm okay with it

/sci/ and /his/ are 125
/tv/ is 115 (smart people enjoy trash)

/lit/ is for 100-110 (absorb knowledge rather than create it) <-- you are here

/biz/ averages 80 but with the highest outliers up to 140.

>>11092904
what a retarded post, holy shit.

i literally have 170 iq

tested when i was 16 at hs

teachers wanted to put me on a program for gifted students and my parents declined it

kinda thank em for it because it would have probably made me into a turbo-autist

>>11092904
nice bait. If you've ever been on /sci/ or /his/ u would have known it's 2 times dumber than /pol/ or /biz/

>>11092940
smartest board is /qa/, btw, but nobody gives it any credit because it's offtopic

Maybe if you have no ambition.

>>11092940
There is no way /pol/ is smarter than /his/

>>11092904
/tv might actually the most dishonest board on 4chan. You know what youre getting into when going to /pol but /tv is the same garbage painted in another color. films and tv are like religion and politics. everyone knows about it and thinks he should publicly state their opinion. I cannot fathom how on earth those charts that float around have ever come to be around here when people visiting this board only seem to be normie tier shitheads who in the end hating on themselves for being mainstream swallowing brainlets.

gb2/his/

What would be the best way to lower my IQ?

>>11093071
I'd rather go to /his/ than /pol/

>>11093073
spending more time on the internet

>>11093082
I'm looking for a quick way to a induce a sharp decline

>>11093073
>eat only junk food
>drink only soft drinks
>start smoking
>stop reading
>never exercise

or you could just repeatedly smash your head against a wall idk

>>11093073
Probably severe brain damage. I don't recommend it however. Being a brainlet isn't as good as it sounds.

>>11092856
109 IQ would unironically be the worst IQ to have. Smart enough to know how mediocre you are, not smart enough to rise above it. I'd rather be a full on turbobrainlet.

>>11092904
lowest requirement for /lit/ is 115,
average on /lit/ is 130

>>11093073
do drugs but never intellectualize it or turning it into a creative persuasion and inspiration.
just do drugs to rot your brain off.

>>11093120
This. 115-120-ish here, I went from blissful ignorance like OP to full on disillusionment, feels bad man.

>>11093075
exactly. because ur low iq

>>11092935
was put in the gifted program when i was like eight years old
trust me it was like a day off of school you didnt have to make up every single week
you shouldve went

Fuck off putin

>>11092904
/lit/ and /sci/ are the same the coin, just different sides. Their cross-boarders (as in, those from low-IQ boards that just shitpost and don't contribute) come from different boards though, /sci/ gets a greater variety. In regards to character and subject matter, they are akin.

>>11092935
i'm 139 iq and got put in a gifted program. can confirm, am turbo-autist

>>11093156
>lowest requirement for /lit/ is 115,
What if you're slow at reading and l mean really slow, I know reading speed isn't the best indicator of intelligence but what if you can only read 11 pages an hour usually, surely it would be lower than 115? If so what would it be
read moby-dick at a rate of 6-12 pages an hour
read blood meridian 8-11 pages
read rutherfords quixote 15 pages
read a tale of two cities 6-10 pages
read questions that matter 4-5 pages
read heart of darkness 6-15 pages
read lotr 15-18 pages
read art of fiction 6 pages
read botns 10-15 pages
read lattimores iliad 8-12 pages
read the confidence man 6-12 pages
read a canticle for leibowitz 8-14 pages
read hombre at 10-15 pages
read butchers crossing at 8-18 pages
reading lonesome dove at 8-12 pages

>>11092904
This was made as a joke, but the order is more or less correct. The top is roughly 125iq, the plateau is roughly 115 iq, then it decreases linearly til /co/ where we're reaching sub 100 territory.

>>11093097
Cigarettes actually increase your IQ...

>>11094642
How so?

>>11092856
IQ is a meme
>inb4 t. 2 digit IQ

>>11092874

Your comment makes me think that life in the anglosphere is just a big dick measuring contest, and I don't know if it's worth it

>>11092856
131 is

How can I become smarter ? Or at least reach peak performance ?

>>11092874
My IQ is 136 and I dropped out of university 2 years into it. GPA has nothing to do with intelligence or comprehension. GPA is a measure of work effort.

>>11093073
Drugs. Especially opioids. That will get you down faster.

>>11092952
t. "smart but lazy"

>>11094599
>/lit/ is 7 points above genius
you faggots dont even read

>>11093073
post here

>>11093515
That is insanely slow but many smart people are slow readers. I know DFW mentioned in a couple interviews that he was a slow reader

>>11095783
tfw sincerely smart but lazy, but my identity has been appropriated by not smart and frankly kind of hardworking people

>>11093515
maybe you have add or something
sometimes ill read 3 pages and feel the need to go for a run or go back to shitposting

>>11092935
Does anybody know how they can get their IQ tested as an adult? I was put in the gifted program in primary school for doing extremely well on the CogAt, but that's not an IQ test. I know Mensa does some kind of testing, but it's also not technically an IQ test either, and apparently my CogAt score already qualifies me to join them, so what's the point?

I am very interested in knowing my IQ
