Introduction

About The Author

For more than a decade, I have been deeply engaged in the development of IQ tests and cognitive challenges designed for those who enjoy pushing the boundaries of reasoning and abstract thought. What began as a fascination with intelligence testing and human problem-solving soon grew into a dedicated pursuit of creating fair, accurate, and thought-provoking measures of high-range intelligence. Over the past 10 years, I have carefully designed numerous tests—each one refined to balance difficulty, clarity, and originality—while also ensuring that they remain both challenging and enjoyable.

My work in this field has always been guided by a genuine curiosity about how people think and how intelligence can be expressed in many forms. I see testing not as a way to reduce someone’s abilities to a single number, but as a way to explore the diversity of thought, creativity, and problem-solving approaches that make each individual unique.

In addition to test development, I have also published several books spanning both logic and fiction. My writings on logic focus on the art of reasoning, clear thinking, and structured problem-solving, while my fictional works allow me to approach complexity and imagination from a different perspective. Both areas of writing influence one another: the precision of logic strengthens the clarity of my narratives, while the creativity of fiction opens new possibilities in the way I construct challenges and puzzles.

HighRangeIQ.com is the culmination of these combined efforts—a space where intelligence, creativity, and exploration come together. My goal with this project is not only to provide high-quality IQ assessments, but also to cultivate a community of people who value curiosity, intellectual growth, and self-discovery.

Whether you are here to measure your own reasoning abilities, to explore new cognitive challenges, or simply to share in the joy of problem-solving, I welcome you to take part in this journey. With each test, each puzzle, and each idea exchanged, we continue to expand the ways in which intelligence can be understood and celebrated.

The Test

The Norm

Psychometric Information

This test is currently in its preliminary stage and has not yet been normed. Norming is carried out once a sufficient sample population has been collected, typically between 8–10 participants for each new test form. This initial dataset provides the foundation for establishing score distributions and setting provisional scaling.

Validity is assessed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r), which measures the degree to which test results align with established measures of cognitive ability. As more participants complete the test, the statistical reliability and validity become stronger, allowing for more accurate norming and interpretation of scores.

Until the norming process is complete, all reported IQ values should be considered experimental and subject to adjustment.
