The practice tests give you an idea, but the actual test is a bit tougher. I base that on the fact that a 37 or higher would get you into Mensa, and half the people when this comes up every year on sports boards claim scores in the high thirties or forties. 40 or more puts you in the 99th percentile.
I used to administer it to people I was considering hiring, I didn't often see scores above 30, only one person I knew of in the company got over 40. (He got a 44 I think).

Here are the percentiles, at the bottom:

26 (100%) after three glasses of wine and not realizing there was a time limit.

Yeah it's the time limit that gets ya!

Sober and some practice I've got to think that 35-40 wouldn't be that hard. But, and this is probably more reflective of tests than it is of me, I always hit 98 or 99 percentile growing up...

How did I score 4 less than Kaepernick? Why am I admitting this?

I go way too slow on timed tests.

Selection bias. If you're going based off of scores posted on sports boards...obviously generally those who score higher are more likely to post it, while those who score lower are more likely not to.

I got a 32 while dealing with a couple distractions

I got 44 out of 44.

I assume if I took it a similar test, but in a test setting, Id fall in around 37 or 38.

Is the test computerized like that sample is? I feel like my score would be a lot higher if I could just skip through and do all the ones you can answer immediately before doubling back and doing ones requiring things like working through math. I got 32 of the 33 questions I got to, but if I could have seen the rest of the test there were probably at least 10 of those 17 I could have immediately answered rather than the sequential way this practice test worked.

Yeah good point. Hand test might make it easier to go answer the quick ones.

Yes. No correlation whatsoever
