<p>Here is an example from recent IQ test. </p>

<pre><code>    (start a timer set for 13 seconds ,once your ready with a paper and pencil) 
Question 1.                11,14,8,53,7,48 
  Is the total of these numbers even ?

 (Set timer for 40 seconds this time)
Question             22, 4,19,8,67,16 
    Is the total odd?
</code></pre>

<p>Then there is no time limit.</p>

<p>Clearly with no time limit almost everyone could find the answer.
With the strict time, only a small percentage could solve the problem.</p>

<p>The amount of time shows the method used.<br>
A genius uses an larger mathicalcan truth (ex. An odd number of odds will always have an total which is odd) . The actual numbers don’t matter and never needs to add them, just count the odds.
      You can add numbers in your head when able to answer under 40 seconds.</p>

The examples common from section 2 of practice test before the actual test live on internet cite geniustests.com. How can I site information that is common knowledge. I am a member of Mensa. To qualify you need to be in the top 2 percent , it is an intelligence quotient, comparing how many questions you answered right and the time it took to do so. I cite google search ( that is the amount of info I gathered to back up info which can not be taught, I tried by explaining that the test how u solve problems, math , spatial,Or   Verbal

So, what do you disagree with. The other answers are well maybe!

Your a neurologist , I am doing research on long term potential. Does your work area cross with mine on any way I would love to talk to some one that knows what Neuroplasticity is? No hard feeling.

<p><em>In this previous question on scoring <a href="https://cogsci.stackexchange.com/questions/4483/how-to-calculate-iq-score-based-on-raw-score-and-adjust-for-age/4485">IQ tests</a> the OP asked about the effect of speed of test, but it was a bit peripheral to the core question. So I thought I'd ask it as a separate question.
To slightly rephrase the question:</em></p>

<blockquote>
  <p>"If the speed with which a test is completed sometimes
  affects the IQ score, surely for identical test scores where one is
  completed in 10 minutes and another in 30 minutes should affect the
  IQ score."</p>
</blockquote>

<p>So the question:</p>

<p><strong>To what extent is time to complete an intelligence test incorporated into the IQ score?</strong></p>

I think it a time limit should be applied to certain parts of the test but considering how slow I work I don't want there to be a time limit on normal tests.

I have taken two tests, one with no time limit and one with 30 min. time limit. I did very well on one (170), and much less on the other (129).[![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/vRm2g.jpg)](https://i.sstatic.net/vRm2g.jpg)

Here is an example from recent IQ test.

```
    (start a timer set for 13 seconds ,once your ready with a paper and pencil) 
Question 1.                11,14,8,53,7,48 
  Is the total of these numbers even ?

 (Set timer for 40 seconds this time)
Question             22, 4,19,8,67,16 
    Is the total odd?

```

Then there is no time limit.

Clearly with no time limit almost everyone could find the answer.
With the strict time, only a small percentage could solve the problem.

The amount of time shows the method used.  
A genius uses an larger mathicalcan truth (ex. An odd number of odds will always have an total which is odd) . The actual numbers don’t matter and never needs to add them, just count the odds.
You can add numbers in your head when able to answer under 40 seconds.
