  24. Military ASVAB: I took it in high school so wasn't allowed to take the whole thing, but I scored so high that when I later joined the military, I could still pick any job and they didn't make me retake it either. College Entrance Exams: Don't actually know what I scored. But due to joining the military, I delayed entry into college and my tests expired. But I scored high enough that they waived me taking it again and accepted me (at a prestigious college that didn't just let anyone in, at least back then). I have never been turned down by any college, attended 6 colleges in total (2 in high school), and hold 4 degrees (all STEM). Standardized Tests in School: I scored in the top 1% or 2% nationwide in every category. IQ test: never took one, have no idea, never plan to take one, and I think IQ tests are bogus subjective crap. They don't prove what people wish they did. Intelligence tests are about as useful as horoscopes and astrology at predicting success and such. Have had success in 3 distinct careers, with opportunities presented to jump to another ~4 careers. I care about results, not arbitrary tests. If you ever meet me in life, look at what I've accomplished, not at my scores. I know people who score high and accomplish nothing their entire lives. And I know people who score low and are amazing and brilliant people. Some score high and achieve. Some score low and are failures. Results are all that matters, not test scores. Could I have a lower IQ, but do well in tests? Could I have a high IQ and be under performing? Could I be book smart and not practical smart (evidence to the contrary there, but something I worry about just the same)? Does it even matter?
