Is a great site if you have a spare 30 minutes or so.
I find the first five tests all doable - but hit section six for exceptional intelligence and its ball breakers!
do you think it is possible to increase IQ with exercise (math)?
I think its possible to reach your full potential by keeping the brain in use.
I think the more you do IQ tests the better you get at problem solving and so do better in them or complete them faster.
I think below the age of 20 the more you problem solve the smarter you become - because you are in effect influcencing how the neourons in your brain are being wired.
IQ is not a measure of intelligence, other then an ability (as intelligence) to do IQ tests.
The problem with the site is they dont check about age. I'm 14 and got a 135 but would probably have scored higher had age been taken into account.

Exactly.
You can improve your score by getting into the mindset of them too.
