Many years ago a bunch of us at Bartcop took a test and all of us scored real high, a few of us over 200.
While one guy claimed to have a 200+ IQ, the rest of us had never been measure near that high o as high as the score we got.
I haven't looked at this test, but I'm willing to bet that it makes offers to people that score high.
