How do you fix a 70 IQ?

Question

Will a special type of diet help? How can I live with this type of IQ? My boyfriend doesn’t accept me because of this and he said he can’t “fix” me.

How can I improve my IQ so my boyfriend doesn’t think anything is wrong with me?

First a guy like that is not a good match. Find someone who "loves you for you". Also learn new skills like following various cooking recipes and practice tapping two paper (or plastic) straws like drumming on a pillow to follow the song. This will improve your mind but probably won't change an IQ score by more than a few points if you test again.

Are you sure your IQ is 70? This question and the grammar used in the detail would indicate someone with an IQ much higher.

Have you taken a formal IQ test? Or, did you play those games that claim to show your IQ as you put pieces into a puzzle.

It would be worthwhile to take a formal IQ test just to see what your IQ really is.

My aim on GAG is to help you see your real worth, not the number someone puts on you.

Your IQ isn’t a “broken” thing to fix, it’s just one part of you. Diet won’t suddenly change it, but good sleep, exercise, learning skills, and routine can boost how you function.

Big red flag: a boyfriend who treats you like a project, not a partner. You deserve someone who loves you, not someone trying to “upgrade” you like software.

Focus on what you’re good at, build practical skills, be kind, be consistent. Emotional maturity beats raw IQ in relationships every single time, gorgeous. 💋

So people just aren't good at taking tests.

You can take an IQ test and have it show that you're in the 70 percentile range, but actually be very intelligent about so many different things.
It doesn't mean that you aren't smart! It's just a test.

The real test is how intelligent you are in your everyday life and at making good decisions.

If my IQ had followed my diet, I would be down about 4 standard deviations. Certainly having a good diet is helpful for maintaining overall health. There are many sources of reasoning puzzles, one of the best drivers of IQ. And which scale? The Stanford-Binet is the most commonly accepted standard, and I believe that even that one has been lowered a couple of points in recent years.

I have read your replies. What kind of test did your doctard give you? I tried some iq test a decade ago and it was all bullshit that gave you more points the dumber you are. I don't know how doctors measure it, but what i got back then was pretty much memorizing events that only a dumb person would expend mental energy memorizing, and not about problem solving abilities.

Did someone call you dumb before you even took the test?

As long as the answer to that is "no", you can easily live a good life. Some professions require almost 0 iq. ㅤ

You need to exercise your brain just like you need to exercise your body.

Exercising your body won't make you a star athlete, but it will improve your strength, balance, agility and a lot of other things.

Same with your brain. Giving it good exercise won't make you a genius, but it will help your memory, thinking ability and general knowledge. You should to do a variety of exercises. Pick different things that you will stick with. Read a lot, and look up words you don't know. Do puzzles. Learn music. Learn a foreign language if you are good at languages. Maybe try meditation. Look around you and just observe and try to understand things around you - it could be anything. Take classes - there are people with college degrees with IQ of 70.

Just don't let your mind be idle. Don't use a calculator or phone for things unless you've tried to do it yourself first. The more you exercise your mind the better off you will be. Don't do it for your boyfriend. Do it for yourself. Your boyfriend should like you for who you are not for someone else that isn't you.

Sadly you can't. Though you'd be better to me.
Those with Average IQ's tend to be annoying to me, they are smart enough to participate in a debate, but lack some reasoning to see the flaws in their own logic.
Aka The Dunning-Kruger effect.
Simply you'd be less likely to be confidently incorrect and I'd prefer that.
Since I argue all the time with people who very much are, and all it takes is one google search to prove them and even more so if they want to see why they're wrong even further but never take the step to actually check.

HawkPerception · Answer

IQ is heavily determined by genetics. Around 40-80% of IQ is based on your genetics. Shared environmental factors (family SES, school quality, neighborhood) affects IQ about 15-22%.

For most people in typical circumstances, IQ scores are fairly stable and might realistically shift on the order of 5–10 points across life, with larger, durable changes (over ~15 points) being possible but uncommon and usually tied to major environmental changes or intensive interventions.

I think that puts to rest the argument of nature vs nurture. Nature is much more impactful on your life and your IQ level, and more often than not, determines how you end up in life.

Keyboardkat · Answer

You know, if you ask someone what the definition of "IQ" is, the answer is, "The IQ is that which the IQ test measures." Oooookay! So now we're just as smart as we were before we asked the question, which means that nobody really knows!! IQ is just a number. Just from reading your post, you sound like an intelligent, normal person. If you had never been told your IQ number, it wouldn't bother you, right? Maybe you're not as good at abstract reasoning as some other people. but SO WHAT? Forget about that. You don't need that. Just relax and be yourself. Who says you need "fixing"? As the late President Reagan said, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it! You don't sound to me like you need fixing at all! Don't let anybody tell you you need fixing. Anyone trying to "fix" you might just end up ruining you, and you don't need that!

I wish you all the best and may you be blessed!

ohsheeT · Answer

Well you have to be careful if he said that because he will start treating you different because he thinks that number is a low grade.

When you take an IQ test you have to understand the question and think out of the box
And you have to really look at shapes sizes if you don't know an answer come back to it but yes there are ways to to get that number way up you can't be in a hurry

Unycorn · Answer

Train what you want to better.

Do you want to better maths then make every 10 min maths training. Start with elementary and go up... continue until you are good in one part of maths.

Same with other skills...

And focus on what brings you the most effect (e. g. job...)

Wish you good luck.

aaron13547 · Answer

IQ is basically our ability to recognize patterns. Ask him why he is with you if he doesn't think you are enough? Just because it takes you longer to see something doesn't make him better then you. Its not about how many thoughts a person thinks. Its about the quality of those thoughts

IQ doesn't make him smarter then you Hardwork, focus, and consistency are way more important then IQ. improve those things about yourself and it will "fix" your IQ.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

Read a lot, use your brain, for a change, do a lot of thinking and noticing as well as remembering. Remove outside distractions when you read or learn something new. Stop thinking that new information is not worth hanging onto. Most people hear or see something one minute and it's forgotten about seconds later.

MrChinaski · Answer

You can't. That's why they test intelligence that way.

You can learn skills, you can gain context, you can build composure... there are many ways to build yourself in ways that strengthen how you act and react in this life.

None of it is going to change your intelligence one jittery-jot. Sorry.

love_conquers_lust · Answer

Read, be healthy, to the best of your ability. Your baseline IQ set, it's mutable, but there are limits to how much it can be improved. Whatever anyone's IQ is, it doesn't mean you can't live a good, moral life with the hand you have been dealt. If we can find meaningful and fulfilling places in society for people who have disabilities, then we can find them for people who have low IQs, and we do.

AngryCarl3 · Answer

As an adult there's not much you can do to raise your IQ significantly. However you can improve your general wellbeing by means of exercise, healthy diet and learning skills that will benefit you in life.

Rather than trying to "fix yourself" for a guy, concentrate on living your own best life.

Another anonymous troll with a fake pink account. Your fake IQ is less of a problem than your other mental illnesses. Maybe go back to that fake psychologist and ask him to help you find reality and a life.

Maybe_Maybe_not · Answer

There is nothing to fix since IQ measures something that doesn't even exist. There's no consensus of what intelligence really means. Also, your boyfriend doesn't seem to know how to mind his own business, but that's a separate topic.

ammar12343 · Answer

You can’t really change these things. Understand the cards you’re dealt, and make the best out of life. Know that’s it not all that great having high IQ either.

You elect them to be President and hope he can get the help he needs via a Cabinet whose members have a higher IQ. Unfortunately, he's not intelligent enough to select high IQ members of his Cabinet.

You should really consult a doctor about this. You’re going to get a million different answers on this question, which will lead to further confusion. Either way, good luck to you.

msc545 · Answer

Be noted that if it's measured correctly, then 70 IQ is very low. You just have to carefully look at things and be careful about what you do and the decisions you make. There's no way to fix this. I'm very sorry.
