    Personal research on IQ tests (proper and otherwise)?

    I'm interested in a bit of research into this topic. I've read that the standardising for the IQ test is out-of-date, and since it's calculated based on your age as well it's not reliable especially for kids. I did an unofficial one at iqtest.com when I was 12, and didn't believe it. The...

    An interesting question of numbers...

    I know I could hardly call this relating to school because of its irrelevance, but it just doesn't fit the 'non-school' definition. I got this question from a book overseas "One half of eighteen gives ten, how?" Don't post if you don't want to spoil the answer or the 'fun', just PM...

    Ed: TWO (2) emoticons that're shy... The other mad icon in the expanded list won't appear... the one with the animation of glowing deep red. Supposedly this one. :mad: (which is the same command as the one on the first page) Can you fix it, I find it more appealing...?

    'Related texts' for Telling the Truth

    Do ppl have good related texts to refer to as additional material? I'm looking for better ones than 'Thirteen Days' and some newspaper articles, but they don't support the frontline stuff much. I've also heard (from a teacher) that Australian texts are preferable over other ones. Opinions?
