It's so funny, because these IQ tests are normally just ways to stroke someone's ego before talking them out of their personal information or trying to sell them something. I've never actually seen someone post a result below 100, much less below 80.

Somebody once made one where it showed the test taker a high result, but anybody else who viewed the result was shown a low result. I believe the way it worked was that the test gave you a hyperlink to share the result, but and then if the same person who took the test accessed the link, identified via cookies or other tracking measure, they were shown a high result, and anybody else got to see a result just above retarted.

I had a girlfriend in school who I deeply wanted to convince was smarter than she thought she was so I had her take an IQ test online. Just to help prove she was smart.

Got a 70. Didn't even know what it meant, kept saying she got a C which didn't seem that smart.

Agreed, the ones I took for shits and giggles always showed high and I'm an idiot.
