A genius and a Rubik's cube?

Question

Hello, I’m am 16 nearly 17, with an IQ of 132. my questions is this; if I picked up a Rubik’s cube for the first time in my life, and solved it, without any help from the guides you get when you buy the cube, does it mean I am a genius ?

P.s I solved the cube in about 10 minutes

Answer 1

I would say so yes.

In my opinion if your IQ is 132, shouldn't you be clever enough to figure out your already a genius, as the average IQ is 100.

To get into Mensa your IQ has to be 124 or over.

Answer 2

Rubik's cube is irreverent. You need an IQ of 140 to be classified as genius*

Answer 3

it was one with the "arrows" on it , wasn`t it?      ;>)

Answer 4

i wouldn't say you are a comeplete genius such as being able to find out a cure for cancer or anything of that such.. but i would say you are very smart :D

Answer 5

Probably depends on a few factors such as:

What was the state of the rubik's cube? As in, was it only a few moves off? I assume it was a very randomly adjusted one though.

Being able to recognize patterns is not necessarily an ability that would qualify you as a genius.

Don't focus on your IQ. It is a meaningless number. The only people that IQ's matter to are mensa members and j**k***s that need reassurance they are smart. Anytime someone brings up their IQ to me I tune out whatever they have to say until I see an opportunity to end the conversation.
