IQ Test

The IQ Test cassette has two tests, one on each side. Each has 25 questions to be answered in 20 minutes, time to go and time elapsed being shown on the screen.

The questions are typical multi-choice intelligence test items, some easy, some obscure - and at least one was wrong.

After the quiz the score is given, with a corresponding IQ rating, and the questions can be shown again with the correct answers.

The recording is low-level and high output is required to load successfully. However the instructions are clear, and the program straightforward and easy to use.

Test 2, however, insisted on starting again when completed and some juggling was necessary to get the score and answers without being told "You haven't answered any questions yet, you dummy".

If you like this kind of quiz you wil enjoy this cassette. But each test can really only be used once per person, and you may think that the price of £5.75 is a shade high for 40 minutes of intelligence test.
