In 1976 I took the Army entrance exam and scored a gt score of 130 at age 17 and one month. Does anybody know what that is for an IQ score.

I have heard that age plays a factor in the IQ scoring. Is this true?

Yes. When you've completed a proper IQ test, the test results are converted into an IQ using a method that takes your age into consideration.

For example the UK National IQ Test used the age table shown at <http://www.bbc.co.uk/testthenation/table.shtml>

This reminds me of one of the best puns ever... I was playing one of those 'Trivia' games with friends, back when I lived in Venezuela.

So, in Spanish, IQ is 'CI' (stands for 'Coeficiente Intelectual', but in Venezuela, 'CI' is commonly used as the acronym for the 'identification document' (CI stands for 'Cedula de Identidad', referring to the number of the document. (kind of the equivalent to US's SSN, or Canada's SIN)

So, one of the questions in the trivia game was 'What would you call someone with an IQ of 10?' ... But the idiot who was reading the question said: 'What would you call someone with a Document of Identity number 10?' (the question on the card said 'C.I.' referring to IQ, but the idiot who was reading the question 'expanded' the acronym and said 'cedula de identidad'

The answer was 'an idiot', which nobody possibly understood (because we weren't seeing the question)

Well, in the US, the joke is 'so-and-so is so old their SSN is 1'.

So the answer to the trivia question is: old.

Hahahaha... I had forgotten that detail, but now you reminded me that precisely, that was the only 'wild guess' that my team could come up with... 'Old' ... Then of course, it was not admitted as the right answer, since the card clearly said that the correct answer was 'an idiot' ... Hmmm, I wonder if it was not referring to the answer, but to what was the one who read the question!!
