test: How Dumb Are you

Not necessarily.... If more people are taking the test, and there probably are, while he isn't the first 100%, chances are there are more people below him if he took it later than I did..... The more people that take it, the higher the percentage the "smarter than" you'll get if you get a perfect score.
not with such a short gap between the tests, mike. you're just not going to see that type of movement (100% to 98.8% to 99.5%) with such a short period of time between the tests. again, to see 3 perfect tests in such short period of time, there would not be a climb from 98.8% to 99.5%. it would be just the opposite. kinch's 99.5% is the outlier. in such a short period of time, kinch's percentile would have to be lower than yours. i don't think that there was a flurry of tests between kinch's test and yours.

finally, i highly, highly doubt that i just happened to be the first to get a perfect score. this wasn't exactly the titan test. i'm also quite suspicious that cci found the site immediately after it was developed, which is what you're essentially claiming if you're stating that i received the first perfect score. these sites just aren't scientific.

I can only go by what I see here. Eliminate the other 100% scores and anyone taking the test that didn't score 100% would be, of course, below us.

It just means that the "smarter than" percentage is a median type score and nothing else.

and that CCI is a shady guy :paranoid: :biggrin:

there's the rub. who knows what factors the site uses to determine two different percentiles for the same score? in light of the percentiles that follow for perfect scores, my percentile renders this discussion pointless. the site offers no explanation for the differences. there is likely no good reason. why is the site so definite to the hundredths when i get a flat 100th percentile? again, it makes no sense. i'm not going to attempt to find reason in it.

It appears everyone here is smarter than CCI!
Sorry, big guy!
Heck with it! Have a cold one!


Here's a question for all you smart guys;
Will you be retired by age 50?
(career military types don't count)
