Customer Reviews

Good, good, one.

Very enjoyable! Pleasured to leave stumped, think about & return to solve.

Fun puzzle book

This fun book is divided into four sections: Elementary Level, Challenging Level, Master Level, and Comprehensive Supertests. As you might guess from those section titles some of the tests are much easier than others and within the tests some types of questions are much easier than others. Each test series contains a wide cross-section of different types of puzzles so you are tested thoroughly. For example, there are diagrammatic puzzles, probability questions, crosswords, cryptograms, anagrams and other questions that really don't fit neatly into any of these categories. Self-scoring answer sheets complete the book and let you know approximately where you fall. I found that it was not uncommon to vary by as much as ten points around a median. Fun to do and interesting, The Big Book of IQ Tests is recommended to anyone who enjoys solving puzzles.

This is a cool book!!

Please buy this book. This is a very fun and good to know how smart you are. I tested myself and I turned out to be 154 as my IQ. I didn't even know I was that smart. Please get this book it is COOL!!!!!

Excellent

Ditto on the previous reviewer's sentiments.. how the first reviewer ever wound up reviewing this book I'll never know or want to. Remember, IQ scores are not a measure of your current functioning, but rather your potential to achieve in certain areas. Knowing your weaknesses (for example, spelling, where the first reviewer falls short)will enable you to develop strategies for overcoming. Knowing your strengths will also allow you to develop and pursue realistic goals in the areas that you can succeed.

Just relax.

The previous reviewer didn't actually read the book; she was just feeling upset about IQ tests in general. So I thought I should offset the negative review.
