Disclaimer
MindRank IQ is an educational tool. It is not a clinical assessment, an employment test, or a basis for any high-stakes decision.
Not a clinical instrument
MindRank IQ is not the WAIS, the WISC, the Stanford-Binet, the Woodcock-Johnson, or any other clinical IQ instrument. It is an online test composed of items modeled after public-domain item families. Its standard error of measurement is larger than that of a supervised clinical test, and its scoring is not designed to support diagnosis.
Not a basis for diagnosis
If you are concerned about a possible cognitive disorder, learning disability, or developmental difference, please consult a licensed psychologist or physician. An online test cannot rule any condition in or out, and a score from this site should not be used as the basis for any diagnostic decision.
Not for employment screening
MindRank IQ should not be used as an employment-screening tool. Cognitive assessments used in employment contexts are subject to legal requirements that an online test cannot meet, including supervised administration, validated scoring, and adverse-impact analysis.
Educational use
We designed the site for personal interest and self-knowledge. The articles, the category breakdown, and the training drills are intended to help you understand how cognitive tests work, what your reasoning looks like across categories, and how to read a score honestly. Treat the tool the way you would treat a magazine quiz that happens to be backed by real psychometric research: useful, interesting, and not the last word.
When in doubt
If you are unsure whether MindRank IQ is appropriate for what you are trying to do, default to no. The right tool for high-stakes cognitive decisions is a supervised clinical assessment by a licensed psychologist.
