It always depends on My mood and how sleepy I am.

For Example, A few days ago, I was wide awake and got 144.
But right now, I am sleepy, and I got 108.

IQ tests online are pretty unreliable; I've had scores ranging clear from 120 to 170 on them. That's a pretty big difference.

I did have a test given to me a professional back in elementary school, though, and it put me at 148 if I remember correctly. That's probably the most accurate test I've taken, but it could still be a few points off (not to mention your IQ usually goes down as you get older!)

Edit: I got 131 on this test.

IQ tests online are pretty unreliable.

IQ tests in general are unreliable if you're under 18 when you take them; it's almost impossible to get under 100.

And for those that asked, 100 is supposed to be the average, but it has crept up to 105-110 in the last decade, or so I've read.

1) http://www.iqtest-center.com/iq-scores.php
Notice how, on a whole, kids under 18 have values in the 120s. Aside from that one genius in Romania and sub-genius in the US, adults score approx. 115 or less.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_average_teenage_IQ
IQ goes down with age.

2) I read this a long time (read: 3 or 4 years ago), and I'm unsure of the source.

Supposedly, average intelligence is 80-114. So PY is pretty much right about 100 being an average.

Last one I took I got a 160(Maybe 150)

After taking this one I got a 150. Your General IQ Score of 150 shows how able your mind is in general. Anyone with a General IQ Score this high is considered to be a genius. This score is better than 99.95% of all persons taking this test. All known occupations can be comprehended with a General IQ this high. You should be able to handle any academic challenges.

My 3 highest individual scores:

Arithmetic (Sample analysis)

Solving many of the IQ Test's problems required the ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers mentally. Many mental tasks require arithmetical operations even though numbers may not be involved, and thus number manipulation abilities can strongly indicate general intelligence.

Your Arithmetic IQ score of 160 is exceptionally higher than your General IQ score.This score is better than greater than 99.99% of all persons taking this test.
Spatial Skill (Sample analysis)

Understanding what changes will occur when conditions vary is a deep and powerful ability of the mind. All invention and creativity of every sort is based upon this ability. Although test problems usually involve manipulation of objects in space, persons with a stronger ability to spatially manipulate can also be expected to use this ability to be able to better predict how social and psychological situations would change due to variation.

Your Spatial Skill IQ score of 164 is exceptionally higher than your General IQ score.This score is better than greater than 99.99% of all persons taking this test.
Logical (Sample analysis)

This is the ability to determine if a set of rules has been correctly followed. This ability is most useful in combination with other mental skills listed above. Those with strong logical ability are quicker to see where a given set of conditions is going to lead, have a strong sense of justice, and better understand--from an intellectual analysis--the benefits of harmony.

Your Logical IQ score of 160 is exceptionally higher than your General IQ score.This score is better than greater than 99.99% of all persons taking this test.

According to Wikipedia it is "Average Intelligence" That's the least intelligent you can be before mental retardation, but it's really not as bad as you think. It's more like normal.

That test says 143. Not like I trust it.
Actually, reading over the questions, it doesn't look like a single answer could be wrong, unless at fault of the maker (i.e. writing "octagon" instead of "hexagon")

100 is overall average.
Taking into account the select group you are with, which happens to be a bunch of video game nerds, along with the inaccuracy of an online test, you'd only expect scores to be pretty far above average.

inaccuracy from the online test can stray either up or down
I'd think it'd usually be up so they convince people to pay for full scores, but they might also stray down at some times
also it might go based off time so if you were distracted or going afk while taking it, your scores are likely reduced
