As a matter of fact, yes there is a site that measures emotional IQ. I only got 120 there though. smile

Here are the links to a couple of tests:

You'd probably wondering why didn't I answere your comment on my blog yet.I'm going to update some of my posts and post a new blog post then I will answere your comment.
Your recent posts are great keep them comming.up
Have you visited Furie's blog here?His posts for new OC members r very nice.

LeoLeo_the_One Tuesday, November 13, 2007 3:08:38 PM

Thanks for your tips!

I looked at the web page you suggested about improving IQ, and the ways to improve your IQ score are extremely similar to what you should do to get a better SAT score.

I am going to start a series of posts on the basics of C++ Programming, so if you are interested you should also read it. It is just going to cover some very basic concepts as I am only an intermediate programmer (if that). Do you think I should start a different blog to post them in? I might do that so I can keep posting regularly in this blog as there are going to be about 20-30 lessons.

I am, however, going to delay my posts a little because this December I am going to write my SAT Reasoning Test and I have to work a little smile.

Finally, I found Furie's blog quite interesting, even at a first glance, and when I get the time I will investigate further.

Nice speaking to you again smile.

Not a bad idea up you should start a new blog on C++.Frankly speaking,I don't have any knowledge about the programming languages.I found the post very informative and helpful.I hear that the latest software platform for mobile phones, Android by Google is based on Java language and most of the syntax of Java is derived from C++.
All the best for the SAT test.up

I think it is a Greek thing!
My son Yannis had an IQ of 130 at the age of 11 in an adult IQ test!

I wonder if I am adopted to a Greek family! I know my IQ it is average (not that I ever measured it!) and I am comfortable with it! Actually Einstein had the IQ of 127...

Great Job, Leo the One!
Make all of us proud!

KYrenKYren Saturday, December 29, 2007 5:54:19 AM

Angeliki,congratulations!:up:I am an Indian and my IQ is 129.my IQ is above average.Average human IQ is 100 and it can be improved.

Angelikiellinidata Saturday, December 29, 2007 4:14:44 PM

hi Kira, I see you stuck with Greeks !! lol

my IQ it must be much lower.....I still love my way of thinking!

Indians also have some Greek blood from Alexander the Great!! (just kidding!) .I know some very intelligent Indian people in NYC!
Most of the are exceptionally good in math!

Do you have any contact with kids in Pakistan??I worry about Yana(another Pakistani Opera friend)..If you do will you, please leave a small note in my profile??
thks!
smile

KYrenKYren Sunday, December 30, 2007 6:55:48 AM

IQ is not the prerogative of just one so called race,everyone who studies well can improve one's IQ.
Yeah friend,the recent killing of the Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benezir Bhutto was saddening.Has God really told huamans to do this.She was the first woman Prime Ministe in an Islamic country.I pray for the welfare of the people of Pakistan.

Angelikiellinidata Sunday, December 30, 2007 1:57:20 PM

Me too Kira, me too! As a mater of fact I do pray for the people of Afghanistan, Iraq, and for the innocent American kids that are send to harms way because of the awful and wrong decision of politician. Why I mention them?? Because a 90% of them are poor country kids that needed education , they had no money and they enlisted to get a college education.Now they pay with their lives. God (if he/she exists ) help all! sad

KYrenKYren Sunday, December 30, 2007 2:11:12 PM

Amen! God helps those who help themselves.smile

Happy New Year to all, I just posted a Greek Tradition(if you feel like reading it, recipe included too!) smile

KYrenKYren Sunday, December 30, 2007 2:43:15 PM

Happy new year! To you Leo and Angeliki up I'll check the recipe.

LeoLeo_the_One Wednesday, January 9, 2008 2:10:29 PM

I'm so sorry in being this late to respond to your comments, but I have just been so busy these last couple of weeks. Anyway, Happy New Year to you both! I will agree with ellinidata (nice to meet you by the way smile), that Indians are very proficient with mathematics: Very good examples are two Indians I admire very much, the first being Chandrasekhar Subramanyan, an excellent astronomer and Srinivasa Ramanujan, a brilliant mathematician who rederived a 100 years of mathematical achievement by himself (!), without having studied Western mathematics!

Changing the subject, I believe that the IQ test is not very accurate, as someone without a Westernized style of education, even though he/she may be a genius, will score nowhere as high as an individual with some training and and average intelligence. I found that since studying mathematics outside the range of the school curriculum (mainly from the Internet) my score increased noticeably.

There I go, ranting on again... smile

All right, now I am back and I am better than before!!

I shall start (when I overcome my laziness) a new series of posts on computer science and efficient use of your PC, with many fascinating wink subjects, such as typing faster and more efficiently with a Dvorak keyboard, computer music, some of my composition/mixes (mostly in the trance/dance genre) and more...

KYrenKYren Wednesday, January 9, 2008 8:48:49 PM

:)Welcome back Leo.Hope your SAT tests went well.Thank you for praising us Indians so much.I have only one grudge that our education system doesn't create thinking individuals and doesn't encourage people to become scientists and researchers.The basic education doesn't reach to the milions of children in my country.There are not colleges and univesities in proportion to the population.
I will be eagerly waiting for your every post.Where did you learn such fluent english?

Angelikiellinidata Thursday, January 10, 2008 3:40:59 AM

Hi Leo,
nice meeting you too!
I do believe the IQ of each individual can be best measured by what he does in the field that he is in.
For example,
If you visit a dry cleaners place and see how they short the different kind of materials, how they label them and how they keep track of each pick up,I totally find it genius.If you see a nurse in a neo natal department feeding changing or giving medicine to babies that can not communicate, that I feel it is genius. When I see a reporter taking notes in a war zone at the time of danger,coping with a life and death situation and later giving us details ,I think that it is genius.
In other words, high IQ can be in various fields,can always be improved by practice or additional studies and before you know it you do end admiring the mechanist of human that it is absolutely genius!
smile Angeliki

My dear Kira,
I agree with you about educational matters. I did teach Greek American children the Greek language and I did find that kids that had no financial problem attended the private schools for a third language.Spanish, French or Chinese it is the choice of a second language in the US schools.
However since the funding it is private you do realize that kids that expand their education i.e in Greek they will eventually do better in later studies in Medicine,Archeology, Anthropology...Why? Because most of the terms have Greek origin.
With my poor English I can stand next to a doctor and understand a 99%. Thats a unprivilege that an extra education can give. I hope all kids can have an opportunity that we never had growing up.I used to be in a village of 50 people and in a two room house the 6 grades of elementary school took place... That didn't give us much either....
Brains with no opportunity can only go that far.........
Stay well,
Angeliki

KYrenKYren Thursday, January 10, 2008 9:22:01 AM

I agree with the every word of your above comment,Angeliki.I my blog also I have talked about multiple intelligence.Every child should get at least basic education.smile

Angelikiellinidata Thursday, January 10, 2008 1:31:53 PM

When my kids are out to college ,I am off to Africa. My goal it is to spread awareness on education and vaccination!
That will be in about 8years from now! Any volunteers available are always welcome!!! smile

LeoLeo_the_One Wednesday, January 16, 2008 12:48:01 PM

Hello again everyone! @Kiranut1: I actually have no formal education in the English language. I left Britain when I was four years old and that just about sums up all the opportunities I had to practice speaking English, however I do occasionally converse with my mother in English just so I do not forget the language (although the content of our dialogues are mostly basic phrases such as "Good Morning", etc., and not rocket science).

I agree with ellinidata's statement concerning how many words in English are derived from Greek, and I guess that is just one of the factors of my fluency.

Anyway (enough of my rambling already!), since you are discussing education, there is one comment I would like to add: I find it really stupid that we have to do 6 hours of Ancient Greek (!@#?) every week at school and there are no computer lessons!!! Do you not agree that studying the past is far less important than subjects in accordance to the future, like computer science?

I have to cut it short now. smile
It was very nice speaking to you, and you are always welcome here to discuss anything.

Farewell

Angelikiellinidata Wednesday, January 16, 2008 1:24:09 PM

The Ancient Greek that you learn and what we did 25 years ago are totally different. We did have to translate every single word.I never regret it of having classes on a great literature that non Greeks do study in Universities and consider it a privilege.
Computer classes are a must to keep up with the todays needs.
One shouldn't diminish the other.Both are important.
There are other subjects that can be reached as well in Greek schools:
1. Other religions.
Greeks we are so brain washed that Greek Orthodox is the only religion out there, we end up having no idea of what we are talking about with people that have different believes.
Knowledge it is power.
Learning about the religions of the world it is knowledge.
2. Sex education.
When in America a child(at age 6) starts to learn about STD in many countries HIV and unprotected sex it is something that even adults know very little about.
3. Politics.
Greeks are famous about their political involvement.Yes, it is true. Looking at the two parties that dominate for centuries we wonder:why only two parties??Why all leaders come from the same family again and again?
Why you do find a job over night if you have the right"connections"
Both my kids are in High Schools that study American/Global History.
Participating in debate groups and competing with other High Schools on various subjects ,gives them another acceptance of political ideas.
The it is one rule: No personal attacks.
Every thing has to be proven.
In my country(Greece) the democracy has been twisted by personal feeling...
So, every thing has to be in moderation:
Ancient Greek,
computers,
religion,
politics,
sex education...
Greeks do have brilliant minds.They just have to realize that this is the 21st century..............

KYrenKYren Wednesday, January 16, 2008 3:18:24 PM

I agree with Angeliki.Children need to learn anciant languages so they can scan anciant texts and make their conclusions compairing them with modern scientific research and present condition.
I agree with you on the subjects that should be taught in schools.Surprisingly in the country of the Kamasutra and Khajuraho temples,it's become a taboo to speak about sex.Sex education works as a vaccine that can prevent STDs and misconceptions.
I speak english with Indian accent.Plz say what you think about my english.

Angelikiellinidata Wednesday, January 16, 2008 6:42:57 PM

Kira I speak English with a Greek accent! bigsmile
You should be very proud of your English!
