To narrow down the answers quickly, you will notice that from the second stage to the last stage the Xs are shifted to the right and converted into circles. So only answer A, B and G remain. What I noticed next is that the triangles in the second picture in the first 2 rows share 2 spots with the 1st picture and in Pic 3 they share only one spot with the previous pic. So you reduce the spots they share with the previous picture by one. In the last row we start out with the triangles not sharing any spot from first to second pic. Now if we want to reduce that by one that means still no triangles share spots with the previous one. Because reducing nothing by one still makes the result nothing. So we exclude A. Now we are left with B and G. You notice triangle patterns in each row dont happen twice so G is also ruled out. And we are left with answer B.
I found the answer easier than i was expecting i spent a lot of time checking smart but wrong ideas before trying the simple right idea. Overall, i think this is real iq test.

Yea, once I realised how simple the actual rule was I almost started laughing (if not for being already tired and hungry). It’s really nice to realise every now and then how stupid I really am.
It's also largely based on luck. When it's that complex, the goal is to just try random ideas for rules until you stumble upon the right one. The fastest you get (randomly) the right rule among many possibilities, the "higher the IQ".
That is literally how I do it 😂 First we start with some „obvious ones”, but later there are so many options to test, that it even seems impossible -and normally there is a time limit, so You got to „go with Your gut feeling” oftenly
It is not based on luck,because all studies show that iq score is very consistent. Even if you make the test 3-4 times.if it was based largly on luck then 1 test you would get 120 and the other will be 140. But that never happanes.
@@janitraprimasanti2648if thats so then iq does make sense. As it is the measure of cognitive ability not the speed. The speed you can develop because others factors like focus, enviroment influence it. So the thing is just thinking the logic .
Once you think about the z movement inside the matrices & the shape shift, you just have to look at the patterns in the previous matrix. Previous matrix has 3 contiguous triangles => last line has three times the same symbol => it's B or D. And before the 3 triangles there are 2 different symbols => it's B.
It took me a few minutes, especially since I was getting stuck over a stupid mistake. I figured out the rule in less than 60 seconds though, which was surprising
I did not find this pattern, but i found another pattern that got solution B too. -In each row of tables, let's say the first row of tables, the 3 columns in each table contains 1 column with 3 different shapes, and 2 columns with a double shape. At the same time, in each table, the 2 columns with a double shape must have a different double shape. And at the same time, each table must have a different combination of double shapes (eg. oo+xx, xx+vv, vv+oo). This leaves us with either answer A or B. -Finally, in each row of tables, the column with 3 different shapes in each table has always the same order of shapes (same order but not same position), so this leaves us with answer B.
The problem with these complicated ones, I don't even know where to start with... From top left to right then to the next row, or look at them as 3 single rows or 3 single columns :/ I'm doomed.
I admit I did not solve it correctly on my own; I came up with about 20 iideas for how it might be solved and quickly realized but if I was actually taking the test in real time I would never have time to try out all of the possibilities in my mind to see which one actually worked however my strength comes in the fact that after I listened to his solution I found an easier way to explain his solution that would make sense to more people but it still would take me too many words to type here I will say this though: if you look at the symbols as representing something in nature it helps. The triangles are mountains, the x is 2 sticks to make fire, which is always put out by clear water in a round bucket before hiking the next mountain and traveling 1 "mile" to the east until you have to go south after falling off the map. Make sense?
For this last one, I just counted and compared. Eventually you notice that in each of the large rows of boxes, there are always one box where any of these three icons are dispered over three separate vertical box rows. The other two boxes contains three of the same icon, but they always come with one pair sharing one vertical row and a single icon on another row. When you see this pattern, you can count and compare the possible options because for the last box you already know it is supposed to be two triangles sharing one vertical column, two circles sharing one vertical column and three X's dispersed over the three vertical rows. I find this to be easier than to assume there is "movement" in this.
This is not about logic, its about if you can think the same as the creator of these tests to find a solution. You just learn all of these patterns, mainly of which you understand after watching explanation videos and you pass it for sure. In order to attain unbiased results you have to create a test with various questions, but only open questions, not closed ones, because you cant trick them as the closed ones.
Wow. I would never have guessed that. My answer was H, because each row, in my mind, was supposed to have an X at a fixed position (row 1 has Xs at A3, row 2 has Xs at A1). Coincidentally, only one answer would solve that pattern, and it even the completed rows would not work for any other shape following that logic.
The rule explained also applies from one table to the next from left to right, top to bottom, i.e. the rows consisting of tables are also linked. The shape that gets shifted out of a table at bottom right ends up in the top left position in next table.
In each 3 lines and 3 columns there are 2 figures that have same disposition so first 3 lines cirles are 2-3-4, x are 3-2-4 and triangles are 4-4-1 so x=circles, in the second 3 lines triangles=x and third triangles=circles, first column x=circles second triangles=circles and third triangles=x. So i would chose A
I arrived at the same solution but to begin with I noticed that the first grid in each new row is just clockwise rotation of the preceding grid. The last grid of the top row is the first grid in the next row, but rotated 90* clockwise. Likewise the last grid in the second row is the first grid in the bottom row. Following this logic the next grid after B would be XTT-XTO-XOO.
Each letter moves one step in the right direction for each sequence, while simultaneously changing its property in the following manner: circle > triangle ; triangle > cross; cross > circle
I think these should not even be included as IQ tests. Someone thought it's genius to keep stacking change rules on top of each other to increase the difficulty of the question. Such test should be designed to test pattern recognition and logic, but the more layers of rules you stack on top of each other (like changes shape in a particular sequence and changes place) the less of an observable logical sequence there is left between presented states. It's not that the more of a pattern recognition ability you have, the "smarter" you are (whatever that means). Pattern recognition works best at a certain optimum. The world is flooded with examples where people find patterns where there are none, resulting in failed conclusions and wasted processing time. Some people can't help it. Their brain is genetically wired to recognize more patterns than others and they are doomed for a high fail rate and inefficiency in a practical world because of that, but they will score high on a stacked rules test such as this one.
This puzzle has nice traps, so you need luck - or to be a genius. - Next row of big matrix starts with small matrices rotated. - Top row of small matrices in the middle row of big one is always the same (xo▲). That is a huge problem because it suggests not to look for "movement" or shapeshifting in individual squares. Only both simultaneously are ok. - Btw, puzzles are usually harder as closer to the end, so if you allocate more time towards those you could have more than a minute ;) - 7:37 We rule out that one by noticing self-evident fact that for "D" solution to work, previous (small) matrix must be "perfectly" ordered too, but there is not even one neat row.
once you find the cross, circle, triangle pattern and realize it applies in each and every row, b is quite obvious. I haven’t taken this test but I tried to find a pattern (in the single collumns, I might add. didn’t enter my mind to look for a pattern in the movement of the symbols) for a good 2-3 minutes before giving up.
Must admit this one defeated me.... Well I worked it out after getting to 1:44 of the video. The answer is B. Should have thought about changed shapes as well as moving them!
The circle never appears in top left and the cross never appears in the lower right. That leaves us with options C and D. The same shape never appears three times in the same row or column, so the correct answer is C.
Tbf I did it slightly diff with a diff set of rules. My rules were as follows: Row Shift -> Col Shift -> Spin (# of col and row shifts were based on its Row-Col pos). I found that this set of rules resulted in the next shape both going along rows and columns. Though it took a bit longer to get the answer. In otherwords I solved it like a rubix cube.
So who is watching this in 2018? It took me like 10 minutes to solve this. And in the real test you've got only one minute. Phew... But I found a very different approach: If you number all 3x3 fields like 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and in every line of 3x3 fields you add up the numbers with the same symbol, you get a number divisible by 9. For example, in the top row for the X-symbol the sum would be 1+7+8+3+5+7+2+5+7=45. The only solution where this is true for the bottom line is B. So B is the answer.
Honestly, I have no idea. But try to solve it yourself. Even though it may take a few days for you to come up with a creative thought. That's good training.
Hey Max - I took the same test online for $ 9.95 which is OK. There are 40 Matix configurations your supposed to solve in just 40 minutes ? Considering it took this guy 7.5 minutes just to solve 1 Matrix that could take you 7.5 * 40 = 300 minutes for 40 Matrixes, however the first 10 are fairly simple and way less time consuming. This guy did it in decent time, and went thru the logical steps IMO. I took the test --scored an IQ of 124, which I was really happy with, except that it took me 96 minutes to do all 40 Matrixes. I don't feel bad though considering it took this guy 7.5 minutes to do just one. Also it took you 10 minutes, and you seem like a very intelligent guy. I did not put myself on the clock, and stress myself, and make panic decisions, as it would have lowered my score. I'd rather have a score of (124) in 96 minutes than score (96) in 40 minutes. I solved the problems,but my brain processing time, may have been a little slow ??, but I still think 90 minutes or so is reasonable to solve all 40. Let's not forget, the average IQ for whites in North America, and in Europe is 100, and it's 105 for East Asians, who have the highest IQs. I do feel rather proud of myself for a high score, as I was expecting around the 110-115 range. ( but it did take me longer than 40 minutes) The test preamble says some people do this in 20 minutes -- and the average is 40 minutes, but all I can see is low scores trying to do it that quickly. I went thru the same logical steps as this guy, and it takes some time, as some of these problem Matrix's are complex. The test was invented by Dr, John Raven in the 1940's and still is very much in use today, as it is used for all ethnic races and cultures, as it gives nobody any disadvantages from being from a different culture, or not speaking English -- it is a Universal test. I took the test at -- brainstats.com -- thinking it was free, and after 90 minutes of grinding my brains out -- it only gives you your score once you pay the $ 9.95, which is not to bad. There is a site that I think is totally free called -- iqtest.dk -- and it "looks" totally free ?? This test is called the -- Raven's Progressive Matrices -- and it's great, the only thing I don't believe is that someone could get a really high score and do this in just 20 minutes -- I highly doubt that ??
@@grantp4022 That's interesting. I did an IQ Test from Mensa. It was "offline" and similar to a school test. I got 123, but that's already computed for my age and my location (Germany). So I don't know how that compares to the rest of the world. Each task of the test had a time limit. That was also a difficulty that is critical for this test. If we had unlimited time, everyone could have answered all tasks correctly. Also there were very different tasks like memorization, 3d imagination and of course pattern recognition and more. For this Mensa test I paid 50€. And it is official recognized.
Max Tröger Maybe the real factor that determines IQ is speed, because I have done actual IQ tests that have a comfortable time limit and score well, but I didnt score that well on SAT because i Only was able to do 75% of the exam, and SAT is considered an IQ test. I score 1200 in sat and 138 on iq test, so I hope someone one day finds a way to increase your fluid inteligence.
Interesting way to come to the solution o.0. I was way too lazy to do it this way, didn't even think they expected us to xD .I got the right solution by drawing the checkers tables on a paper .We look at the tables from top to bottom and separate them into first second and third row. So you separate the shapes in your mind ( x's,triangles and circles). Draw how the table would look like if all ,for example, circles in one row overlaped aka if you put the 3 tables in one row into overlay (do this with each shape kind). ..Overlapped, in one row, 2 shape kinds will take up all spots but one and the third will leave 2 spots empty. When I figured that out I just had to draw the third row's table's triangles overlapping, noticed there is 4 spots that had no triangles and searched for the solution that would cover 2 of those, checked if both x's and circles covered all but one and thats how I got to B. Now that I think about it the way I did it doesn't sound simpler xD ...Thanks for the videos, BTW. I was really curious about 34...would've never guessed a mirror. I also chose H on 38 because there was indeed no evidence of the shapes rotating.
Omg. I can't seem to understand your solution but you sound really smart. I also chose H in 38 and did wrong 34, nothing came up to my mind. So are you a Mensa member yet?
This is certainly the most interesting one I remember as one of the most excellent tests! The cycles of Galois did not allow me to complete this tets impeccably thank you!
This is over complicating. The pattern is switching a symbol(triangle, circle, and cross) to a new symbol and then rotating the elements row collapsed to the right.
The invariant sequence XOA in the second row was a clue to the transforms in each row, but the clockwise 90 degree rotations in the wraps to the next row were a distraction for me. Had a hope there was a wrap back to the top with this pattern of rotations to form a loop, but that would have been too easy. :P
Hell of a question, even after knowing the rule, it took more than 40 seconds to find out the solution.. how could people solve this in 60 seconds then
very complicated! I doubt I could have solved this even with 1 hour thinking time. I remember doing this test a few years back, i had a very good result, 135-140 if I remember correctly. So whats your IQ if you can solve this one, assuming you solved the earlier ones aswell?
This is under 135 IQ I'd say. I also haven't found an IQ test online that measures up to 140 IQ in a long time, could you give me a link to the ones you took?
Hey Gamer Brah - good video - you sound German. I have a question ? is the answer for this video Matrix 39, or the other answers you gave for the 19 Matrixes -- are these "your answers" thru problem solving ? or are they answers from a testing psychological institution ?? Can you let us viewers know ?? -- thanks -- from --Canada :)
He did mention in the last question (#38) that the "official" answer was such and such, but he could buy the logic for a different answer so I am assuming he had the actual answers.
I immediately saw the pattern of changing shapes between the 1st left column and last right column, so I knew it has to be either A or B. But somehow the moving part escaped me, so I've spend good 10-15 minutes trying to figure the logic there))))
+whiff1962 Not really. Einstein took 10 years to figure out General Relativity from Special Relativity and while Max Planck derived up to a point faster than Einstein (indicating higher IQ)- Einstein used his creativity to ultimately find the correct solution while Planck remain stuck on the abstracts.
This is not general relativity. It's a comparable simple case of pattern recognition and a little working memory. No comparison at all with the complexity and the creativity of GR. I could solve it within a minute, the pattern is simple: cross -> circle -> triangle -> cross when items are moving one step further. That's all. It leads directly to B. There's no need for colors and exclusion.
, I prefer questions like this:. , , , If a block weighs 7/11 ths of a block plus 8 kilograms, how much does a block weigh? , , , , And the answer is -
This one I really dont get! I took some time trying to figure it our before you started, and I decided on the correct answer, but it was intuition as I couldn't fiend a rule. Even your rule make no sense to me. - Take you choice at 3:47 Why that one and not the first triangel in the second row? How do you know it's the second? And then looking at the middle row I can't see the method apply? Here it seems to me that the blue is in the same place, not moved, but the purple and red have switched places, the green is a mess. So I don't understand how you can be sure to make the colours in the order you do in the last row? I would love an explanation if anyone can give me one? Thanks in advance!
Answer D is just silly, it seems so obviously out of place. But it would be neat if they could design one of these problems where the correct answer naively looked so unexpected.
At some level of difficulty, IQ tests become a glorified game of "what am I thinking of?". To have any hope of solving something like this, you need to get into the mindset of the puzzle maker. It becomes a test of lateral thinking; not IQ.
There is a way easier way to look at this. Just think about symmetries and invariants. On each box there is a column with all 3 shapes and more than this that column shifts from left to right inside the row, so we know that should be on the middle in the case of our answer. We can notice that this columns with all three shapes preserve the permutation. Last observation is that each row has 2 columns containing 2 of each shapes. You can narrow the answer to B like that really easily in less than 60 sec
It depends on which ones you got wrong... If It was the last 6 you are about 120 IQ. Someone would have to crack the flash file to obtain the correct data they use to calculate the final score. It is not simply "x points for each question" it has to do with statistics data they collected to produce the final formula.
@@Pinky0579 Thank you for the kind response first. Secondly, I erred in question 20, 26, 33, 36, 37, and 39. This means that I analyzed from the last 6 correct answers and from the middle of the questions are wrong questions but I assure you that I analyzed the questions in the middle of a lack of focus because of the large number of answers I did not see the correct answer Does my intelligence score 120? I have heard that intelligence is inherited from the mother, not from the father, even though my father is very smart, and I am smarter than him, and my mother on average، is really a strange thing.🙃
@@maherm2 there is more to intelligence in general than just IQ. IQ tests are psychological tools to measure from a standard point of view the individual capacity to recognize patterns and learn them fast. Genetics are complicated science, not a simple sum game. I am taller than both of my parents. And that is how things should be, or we would have a slow decrease inside of a range until everybody was equal.
@Reicher Reinhardt Von kesselring All of this is due to the lack of focus, nothing more, but you definitely have a high IQ above 120, maybe 130, maybe 140, or higher
But what about when they shift ahead 4 instead of 1, & then also turn the whole thing 90º each time? I guess the stuff like that would just be for really smart people. 🤔😉
Haha. It seems helpful to always try the simplest rules first, using creativity and patience. And if these are not applicable on their own, to add another simple rule. And with a pinch of luck and experience, intuition will spit out the right combinations first. :-D This task is for the cyborgs and chess players among us. ;-)
There is an another way to solve this question without changing they symbols properties (Circle -> Triangle -> Cross etc). It is a bit more complicated, thus forced me to sit with it for a while. I won't spend my time explaining HOW if no one is interested so reply to this comment if you are (:
well i think most will admit that nr 39 is to hard to solve with a time limit. Extremely smart humans will see it right away. So if you dont see it your not a genius..
Shane it is supposed to be that way. Designers of this tests have spent a lot of time on it, so the results are accurate. It all depends on your iq I would have never figured it out either
Do natural intelligence boost program like Rotogenflux Methods really work and if so, how effective are they? We've heard numerous amazing things about this iq course.
I've selected 3 wrong answers closest to the right ones in logical sequencing for 37, 38, 39. I wonder if you can get half a point in a real IQ test like mensa's or queendom's. Take this, for example. I'd be more wrong had I gone with answer D as opposed to A which I actually selected. Not trying to get a little moral victory here, just wondering.
You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.

What I noticed next is that the triangles in the second picture in the first 2 rows share 2 spots with the 1st picture and in Pic 3 they share only one spot with the previous pic. So you reduce the spots they share with the previous picture by one. In the last row we start out with the triangles not sharing any spot from first to second pic. Now if we want to reduce that by one that means still no triangles share spots with the previous one. Because reducing nothing by one still makes the result nothing. So we exclude A. Now we are left with B and G. You notice triangle patterns in each row dont happen twice so G is also ruled out. And we are left with answer B.
I found the answer easier than i was expecting i spent a lot of time checking smart but wrong ideas before trying the simple right idea.
Overall, i think this is real iq test. It's idea base rather than speed/memory based.
But I've found that some people will miss questions they can find because they anticipate complexity and don't think simpler.

- 7:37 We rule out that one by noticing self-evident fact that for "D" solution to work, previous (small) matrix must be "perfectly" ordered too, but there is not even one neat row.
Thank you, dear GamerBrah! It was fabulous!
wow thanks a lot, this is super helpful, i have tried to find out how this works for a long time but still dont understand then i found this video
once you find the cross, circle, triangle pattern and realize it applies in each and every row, b is quite obvious. I haven’t taken this test but I tried to find a pattern (in the single collumns, I might add. didn’t enter my mind to look for a pattern in the movement of the symbols) for a good 2-3 minutes before giving up.
Must admit this one defeated me.... Well I worked it out after getting to 1:44 of the video. The answer is B. Should have thought about changed shapes as well as moving them!
The circle never appears in top left and the cross never appears in the lower right. That leaves us with options C and D. The same shape never appears three times in the same row or column, so the correct answer is C.
Failed
Occam's Razor
huh .... C has the circle in the top left and the cross in the lower right. How does that fit your theory?
tq sir for the explanation. Finally i meet the solution. You are GREAT.
Tbf I did it slightly diff with a diff set of rules. My rules were as follows: Row Shift -> Col Shift -> Spin (# of col and row shifts were based on its Row-Col pos). I found that this set of rules resulted in the next shape both going along rows and columns. Though it took a bit longer to get the answer. In otherwords I solved it like a rubix cube.
You make it sound so easy but I probably would have just given up. Thanks!
So who is watching this in 2018?
It took me like 10 minutes to solve this. And in the real test you've got only one minute. Phew...
But I found a very different approach: If you number all 3x3 fields like
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
and in every line of 3x3 fields you add up the numbers with the same symbol, you get a number divisible by 9. For example, in the top row for the X-symbol the sum would be 1+7+8+3+5+7+2+5+7=45.
The only solution where this is true for the bottom line is B. So B is the answer.
Honestly, I have no idea. But try to solve it yourself. Even though it may take a few days for you to come up with a creative thought. That's good training.
Hey Max - I took the same test online for $ 9.95 which is OK.
There are 40 Matix configurations your supposed to solve in just
40 minutes ? Considering it took this guy 7.5 minutes just to solve
1 Matrix that could take you 7.5 * 40 = 300 minutes for 40 Matrixes,
however the first 10 are fairly simple and way less time consuming.
This guy did it in decent time, and went thru the logical steps IMO.
I took the test --scored an IQ of 124, which I was really happy with,
except that it took me 96 minutes to do all 40 Matrixes. I don't feel
bad though considering it took this guy 7.5 minutes to do just one.
Also it took you 10 minutes, and you seem like a very intelligent guy.
I did not put myself on the clock, and stress myself, and make panic
decisions, as it would have lowered my score. I'd rather have a score
of (124) in 96 minutes than score (96) in 40 minutes. I solved the
problems,but my brain processing time, may have been a little slow ??,
but I still think 90 minutes or so is reasonable to solve all 40.
Let's not forget, the average IQ for whites in North America, and in
Europe is 100, and it's 105 for East Asians, who have the highest IQs.
I do feel rather proud of myself for a high score, as I was expecting
around the 110-115 range. ( but it did take me longer than 40 minutes)
The test preamble says some people do this in 20 minutes -- and the
average is 40 minutes, but all I can see is low scores trying to do it
that quickly. I went thru the same logical steps as this guy, and it takes
some time, as some of these problem Matrix's are complex.
The test was invented by Dr, John Raven in the 1940's and still is
very much in use today, as it is used for all ethnic races and cultures,
as it gives nobody any disadvantages from being from a different
culture, or not speaking English -- it is a Universal test.
I took the test at -- brainstats.com -- thinking it was free, and after
90 minutes of grinding my brains out -- it only gives you your score
once you pay the $ 9.95, which is not to bad. There is a site that I
think is totally free called -- iqtest.dk -- and it "looks" totally free ??
This test is called the -- Raven's Progressive Matrices -- and it's great,
the only thing I don't believe is that someone could get a really high
score and do this in just 20 minutes -- I highly doubt that ??
Grant P bruh does time affect your score? cause I was able to do all 39 correct but Im kinda slow, actually with the last took me like 7 minutes
@@grantp4022 That's interesting. I did an IQ Test from Mensa. It was "offline" and similar to a school test. I got 123, but that's already computed for my age and my location (Germany). So I don't know how that compares to the rest of the world.
Each task of the test had a time limit. That was also a difficulty that is critical for this test. If we had unlimited time, everyone could have answered all tasks correctly.
Also there were very different tasks like memorization, 3d imagination and of course pattern recognition and more.
For this Mensa test I paid 50€. And it is official recognized.
Max Tröger Maybe the real factor that determines IQ is speed, because I have done actual IQ tests that have a comfortable time limit and score well, but I didnt score that well on SAT because i Only was able to do 75% of the exam, and SAT is considered an IQ test. I score 1200 in sat and 138 on iq test, so I hope someone one day finds a way to increase your fluid inteligence.
Thank you. You are amazing. This is the last question i've had the answer for years.
The ones i got wrong are 37,38 thank you soo much bro.
Interesting way to come to the solution o.0. I was way too lazy to do it this way, didn't even think they expected us to xD .I got the right solution by drawing the checkers tables on a paper .We look at the tables from top to bottom and separate them into first second and third row. So you separate the shapes in your mind ( x's,triangles and circles). Draw how the table would look like if all ,for example, circles in one row overlaped aka if you put the 3 tables in one row into overlay (do this with each shape kind). ..Overlapped, in one row, 2 shape kinds will take up all spots but one and the third will leave 2 spots empty. When I figured that out I just had to draw the third row's table's triangles overlapping, noticed there is 4 spots that had no triangles and searched for the solution that would cover 2 of those, checked if both x's and circles covered all but one and thats how I got to B. Now that I think about it the way I did it doesn't sound simpler xD ...Thanks for the videos, BTW. I was really curious about 34...would've never guessed a mirror. I also chose H on 38 because there was indeed no evidence of the shapes rotating.
mikifaxxx Very interesting solution!
If i might ask, what is your IQ @GamerBrah
Omg. I can't seem to understand your solution but you sound really smart. I also chose H in 38 and did wrong 34, nothing came up to my mind. So are you a Mensa member yet?
Nice job and thanks for taking time to explain all 39 exercises! Did you figure them all out yourself?
This is certainly the most interesting one I remember as one of the most excellent tests! The cycles of Galois did not allow me to complete this tets impeccably thank you!
This is over complicating. The pattern is switching a symbol(triangle, circle, and cross) to a new symbol and then rotating the elements row collapsed to the right.
Could you please rephrase your explanation with more details, I don't understand what you mean by 'rotating the elements row collapsed to the right'
@@davlmt When it goes from 3rd to 4th and from 6th to 7th image, it doesn't follow the main rule but whole image rotates.
The invariant sequence XOA in the second row was a clue to the transforms in each row, but the clockwise 90 degree rotations in the wraps to the next row were a distraction for me. Had a hope there was a wrap back to the top with this pattern of rotations to form a loop, but that would have been too easy. :P
Hell of a question, even after knowing the rule, it took more than 40 seconds to find out the solution.. how could people solve this in 60 seconds then
very complicated! I doubt I could have solved this even with 1 hour thinking time. I remember doing this test a few years back, i had a very good result, 135-140 if I remember correctly.
So whats your IQ if you can solve this one, assuming you solved the earlier ones aswell?
This is under 135 IQ I'd say. I also haven't found an IQ test online that measures up to 140 IQ in a long time, could you give me a link to the ones you took?
Hey Gamer Brah - good video - you sound German. I have a question ? is
the answer for this video Matrix 39, or the other answers you gave for
the 19 Matrixes -- are these "your answers" thru problem solving ? or are
they answers from a testing psychological institution ?? Can you let us
viewers know ?? -- thanks -- from --Canada :)
He did mention in the last question (#38) that the "official" answer was such and such, but he could buy the logic for a different answer so I am assuming he had the actual answers.
This one is insane, thanks man
Thank you. Very interesting work throughs
I immediately saw the pattern of changing shapes between the 1st left column and last right column, so I knew it has to be either A or B. But somehow the moving part escaped me, so I've spend good 10-15 minutes trying to figure the logic there))))
Now, all we need is practice to solve problems like this in 60 sec or less😂
And in the actual test you have a time limit and cant use colored pencils. yikes.
+sonof hendrix Just 60 seconds to figure it out!!! yeesh!
bliglum This is where the wheat is separated from the chaff. Computational speed is as important in the final score as is accuracy.
+whiff1962 Not really. Einstein took 10 years to figure out General Relativity from Special Relativity and while Max Planck derived up to a point faster than Einstein (indicating higher IQ)- Einstein used his creativity to ultimately find the correct solution while Planck remain stuck on the abstracts.
This is not general relativity. It's a comparable simple case of pattern recognition and a little working memory. No comparison at all with the complexity and the creativity of GR. I could solve it within a minute, the pattern is simple: cross -> circle -> triangle -> cross when items are moving one step further. That's all. It leads directly to B. There's no need for colors and exclusion.
, I prefer questions like this:. , , , If a block weighs 7/11 ths of a block plus 8 kilograms, how much does a block weigh? , , , , And the answer is -
bimmjim lol nice
after reodering and algebra you get 22=8/(11-7)×11
assumimg its not a trick question
ratios the human specialty
I feels kinda bad for cheating lol my real iq is 115 but thanks to you I got a 139
Pure genius
Once you know the trick it's so easy. But founding the trick ... Oh well, that's very very hard. :)
This one I really dont get! I took some time trying to figure it our before you started, and I decided on the correct answer, but it was intuition as I couldn't fiend a rule. Even your rule make no sense to me. - Take you choice at 3:47 Why that one and not the first triangel in the second row? How do you know it's the second? And then looking at the middle row I can't see the method apply? Here it seems to me that the blue is in the same place, not moved, but the purple and red have switched places, the green is a mess. So I don't understand how you can be sure to make the colours in the order you do in the last row? I would love an explanation if anyone can give me one? Thanks in advance!
Didnt account for any shapeshift, ty, had it figured out a split second after hearing that... nice to learn something new :)
mee too, aftear hearing that word i alredy got the answer. Now i can go for mensa test, or even higher
you can also see each row and column as sliders
its B i think ill watch till the end
is the mid row supposed to be the key/hint?
Did you get full score in the end?
Hahah, you just HAD to tell people that...
no showing off
I feel like an idiot now
Do we know it’s not A? There’s a very simple pattern that A completes......
Ada yg ksni gara2 al-faiz 😅
This is very simple when you see what is the pattern. There is just alot of missdirection.
Answer D is just silly, it seems so obviously out of place. But it would be neat if they could design one of these problems where the correct answer naively looked so unexpected.
At some level of difficulty, IQ tests become a glorified game of "what am I thinking of?". To have any hope of solving something like this, you need to get into the mindset of the puzzle maker. It becomes a test of lateral thinking; not IQ.
and employers are using this to screen applicants!
There is a way easier way to look at this. Just think about symmetries and invariants. On each box there is a column with all 3 shapes and more than this that column shifts from left to right inside the row, so we know that should be on the middle in the case of our answer. We can notice that this columns with all three shapes preserve the permutation. Last observation is that each row has 2 columns containing 2 of each shapes. You can narrow the answer to B like that really easily in less than 60 sec
Good observation and a more realistic route to the solution
does understanding this after an advise actually count ?
T u r o ゝゆ芋 probably some 10%😂
@@christy3971 rest in pepperony
Shouldn't the final X in the solution be a triangle then?
thank you for explanations
Wow that’s hard as hell but I got i got B. I would have never figured that out
This is a cool one! :) For the 150+ mark!
You would have to have a very high IQ to shuffle through all the possible patterns in a time limit. I doubt that I would ever find this pattern.
how did you came out with the solution is there an answer sheet?
My correct answers are 33 out of 39. How much is my IQ?
It depends on which ones you got wrong... If It was the last 6 you are about 120 IQ. Someone would have to crack the flash file to obtain the correct data they use to calculate the final score. It is not simply "x points for each question" it has to do with statistics data they collected to produce the final formula.
@@Pinky0579 Thank you for the kind response first. Secondly, I erred in question 20, 26, 33, 36, 37, and 39. This means that I analyzed from the last 6 correct answers and from the middle of the questions are wrong questions but I assure you that I analyzed the questions in the middle of a lack of focus because of the large number of answers I did not see the correct answer Does my intelligence score 120? I have heard that intelligence is inherited from the mother, not from the father, even though my father is very smart, and I am smarter than him, and my mother on average، is really a strange thing.🙃
@@maherm2 there is more to intelligence in general than just IQ. IQ tests are psychological tools to measure from a standard point of view the individual capacity to recognize patterns and learn them fast. Genetics are complicated science, not a simple sum game. I am taller than both of my parents. And that is how things should be, or we would have a slow decrease inside of a range until everybody was equal.
@Reicher Reinhardt Von kesselring All of this is due to the lack of focus, nothing more, but you definitely have a high IQ above 120, maybe 130, maybe 140, or higher
But what about when they shift ahead 4 instead of 1, & then also turn the whole thing 90º each time? I guess the stuff like that would just be for really smart people. 🤔😉
Very nice. But this one is not even that hard. When t he movement is on rows and columns at the same time, it's pure insanity...
Now we all have 150 IQ
Haha. It seems helpful to always try the simplest rules first, using creativity and patience. And if these are not applicable on their own, to add another simple rule. And with a pinch of luck and experience, intuition will spit out the right combinations first. :-D This task is for the cyborgs and chess players among us. ;-)
I would have never solved this matrix test even with an infinite of time.
Maybe me too
love the videos....what happened to you???
Thanks for the vids man
this is confusing
Whats The ans of 4,11,12
i got 133 iq, got only two answers wrong, this one and number 37
@Noxy Naga this is a link to the test, it should work www.iqtest.dk/main.swf , you need to have flash activated in order to fully access the website.
OUT OF 39 QUESTIONS, I GOT 11 WRONG & 28 CORRECT ANSWERS. SO WHAT IS MY SCORE?
97
What IQ question is this
you score is .. ?
Wow superb.
There is an another way to solve this question without changing they symbols properties (Circle -> Triangle -> Cross etc). It is a bit more complicated, thus forced me to sit with it for a while.
I won't spend my time explaining HOW if no one is interested so reply to this comment if you are (:
Bro I am interested
What is the highest Possible IQ number in this exam? Beacause I want to do it 4 free.
They'd kick this guy out of the testing room for F-ing ( messing up ) there test .😚
thank you !
I failed on 4 of them, damn it!
How reliable is the result of this test?
well i think most will admit that nr 39 is to hard to solve with a time limit. Extremely smart humans will see it right away. So if you dont see it your not a genius..
NilleMr20 that is not true at all....
Shane it is supposed to be that way. Designers of this tests have spent a lot of time on it, so the results are accurate. It all depends on your iq
I would have never figured it out either
You can increase solving skills but not intelligence.
Who the fuck could solve this in 60 seconds
Do natural intelligence boost program like Rotogenflux Methods really work and if so, how effective are they? We've heard numerous amazing things about this iq course.
Thanks
woooow really thank you are super
I've selected 3 wrong answers closest to the right ones in logical sequencing for 37, 38, 39. I wonder if you can get half a point in a real IQ test like mensa's or queendom's. Take this, for example. I'd be more wrong had I gone with answer D as opposed to A which I actually selected. Not trying to get a little moral victory here, just wondering.
Bravo!
You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.
