A free IQ test that respects your time โ and gives you the whole result
Most "free" IQ tests online make you answer 30 questions and then demand your email or $9.99 to see the score. This one doesn't. You get 40 questions, a 25-minute timer, and a full results page โ IQ estimate, percentile ranking, and a breakdown of how you did in each cognitive domain โ completely free, every time.
What the test measures
- Pattern recognitionโ spotting the rule in visual and symbolic sequences, the core skill behind Raven's Progressive Matrices.
- Number series โ quantitative reasoning: finding the hidden structure in numeric sequences.
- Logic โ syllogisms, ordering problems, and deduction under constraints.
- Verbal reasoning โ analogies that test how precisely you map relationships between concepts.
Understanding your IQ score
IQ scores are standardized so that 100 is the population average with a standard deviation of 15. That means:
| Score range | Classification | Share of population |
|---|---|---|
| 130+ | Very superior (gifted) | ~2% |
| 120โ129 | Superior | ~7% |
| 110โ119 | High average | ~16% |
| 90โ109 | Average | ~50% |
| 80โ89 | Low average | ~16% |
A single online test can't capture everything โ sleep, practice, and test anxiety all move the needle. Treat your result as a fun, directionally useful estimate, and retake it after a few days to see your consistent range.
Tips for your best score
- Take it in one quiet, uninterrupted sitting.
- Don't camp on a hard question โ every question is worth the same.
- Eliminate obviously wrong options before guessing.
- Watch the clock: 25 minutes for 40 questions is about 37 seconds each.
