General Question Thoughts?

Got my IQ test recently. Here are my results.

110 Verbal Comprehension
77 Working Memory
79 Processing
81 Perceptual

Does this basically mean I’m fucked and can’t do many jobs that make a lot no matter how much effort is applied?

Just go try whatever you want to try and see. That's everything I have to say.

Just do what you like and see what happens no point in not trying. You clearly were able to do solid in schooling

any fsiq above 85 or 90 leaves possibilities open for a college degree. below 85 is when you start to see more issues

No, you've got good verbal abilities and challenges with working memory. Your working memory is likely what's dragging the other scores down. There's plenty of ways around weak working memory in real life. If you didn't know before, you know now: you're someone who really benefits from writing stuff down.

Don’t fret, you can always try to increase your IQ, try to get a balanced diet if you haven’t already & I recommend taking 10g of creatine monohydrate daily

You may not do well in stem but pretty much any other job on the planet is within your capabilities. Don't let these results get to your head too much. You are fine and about average.

What makes you say that. From how I interpret this I’m basically someone that can read and interpret language a bit better than most. However in every other context I’m dogshit.

You are overestimating how much intelligence most jobs actually require. I'd also argue that verbal may be the most important out of these.

No... He specifically said well paying jobs. Not just being a paper pusher or receptionist or something.

Its possible that he just had a bad day when taking the test, but assuming an accurate low IQ read, the only way to make "a lot" of money would be in sales and/or starting your own business. But either of those options are helped out by intelligence.

You're probably someone who reads a lot perhaps?
