I.Q. tests are mostly worthless, in my opinion.
Like membership in MENSA, they may feed egos but have little value otherwise. Intelligence is measured in many ways, and while an online I.Q. test may be fun to play with, I wouldn't take those abnormally high numbers I've seen posted here very seriously.

The $10. certificate fee is the tip-off. Take the test, get a wildly high number and then pay for a certificate to 'prove' how smart you are. Right, that'll convince everyone.
"We have a senior scientist position here at NASA waiting for you sir. Six-figure salary of course and a company car. The least we can do for a man with your I.Q., as shown on this impressive certificate".
Then, we wake up.
