I wanted to get into Visionary Philosophy right out of high school, but my guidance counselor said I wasn't "right" for it. Now I find that the field of Visionary Philosophy is perfect for me. Hope it's not too late! "Visionary Philosopher" sounds much cooler than "sign guy".
Probably works great with the chicks, too.

Sucks that there's no way (that I could see) to find out which ones you got wrong. I scored a 131 ... Visual Mathematician ... whatever the hell that means ... don't know any audio mathematicians so I'll just pretend it's good.

another alleged "visionary philosopher" here at 140
Mark, I think the final page offered you to get your "full" report which appears to include the IQ answer key.
I left it open in another window... so I guess I'll be a guinee pig(correct spelling not required for visionary philosophers)& get the report. I'll post the answer key if possible.

I tried it too. I got a 131 and my intellectual Type is an Insightful Linguist.

Guess I'm in the right profession! Do they think if they stroke your ego enough, you'll sign up for more?

I'm kinda new to the internet, what intelect I've got was telling me SURE, ya won't give my address away, but you'd love to sell it!
Am I being too skeptical? I sure regret spending that much time on the test and not knowing the results, because I didn't fill out the form at the end completely.
Also, I guess they expect some kind of pathetic, postmodern lie in response to the question about knowing truth. The correct answer is "I know very little", not "I know nothing".

This means you're exceptionally good at discovering quick solutions to problems, especially ones that involve math or logic. You're also resourceful and able to think on your feet.
But my feet are getting tired!

This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns.

a funny thing happened when I first saw this post. I was supposed to be getting a re-order edge job out & was leaving it until the absolute last minute before starting it. It was a pretty basic decal job that was expected to take about 15 minutes to print, but it was a auto-numbering job. In 2 years using the EDGE software, this was the only client to require my use of this auto-numbering feature. Having done it a year ago, & also the year before that... I figured I'd pull out the manual, find the page to refresh my memory, & in 5 minutes time have the new 2004 parking permits programed to print 125 repeats with consecutive numbers.
So, anyway, I made myself a few minutes later on that job so I could test my IQ, then I put my mind to what really pays the bills around here... & the */%#! computer kicked my a$$ for the next 2-1/2 hours fighting this simple problem, my client went home empty handed, & I made a few desperation phone calls & emails in hopes of not waking up to the same job still staring at me the next morning. I guess I'll post a public thank you to Glenn Taylor for finding the glitch in my file.
So. like Mike said at the top... "visionary philosopher"... hmmm, wonder if I can make that pay?

138. Visionary Philosopher. Join the crowd.
I wonder if part of the score is the time involved in taking the test. If I recall correctly, there were 40 questions, which would give a 2.5% difference per question, unless they are weighted in some way.
Someday, if I’m REALLY bored, I’ll take it again, screen capture the answers I chose, then do it one more time in about 5 minutes and see if I can hang with the guy possessing the bad haircut at the top right of their page.
Of course, if they change the questions, I will manage to smoke Tony's score and then I'll be the winner!
