BUT also, they are a specific type of test that gives you a score compared to others similar to yourself. They are about how you process information and how you solve problems. So they can be useful.
But they are not an indication of how clever you are. Also, you are not an idiot. I know that from your postings.
I strongly suspect that most people I interact with will come up with a figure that is in the 90-120 range - i.e. most of you are broadly normal intelligence.
