People also appreciate the clear explanations of their results, mentioning that the detailed assessments provide interesting insights into their personal cognitive abilities.

Fun. Seems accurate.
Insightful to say the least.
Worth the $2 as long as i can find the "cancel sub" button without to much trouble.

Beware! They automatically enroll you into an expensive subscription!
I remember OK-ing a transaction of $1.95 for an IQ test, not an auto-enrollment into a monthly subscription of $29.95. WHY do so many businesses do this kind of shady practice lately? Don't they know it delegitimizes their businesses and makes them look like scams? Why would any customer trust a business that operates that way? I just came from having to leave a review for ANOTHER business that did the same thing (Court Records US, if anyone's curious).
IQ Institute charges you $1.95 for their services and then quietly enrolls you into an automatic $29.95 monthly subscription...which is technically legal because I'm sure they tell you in some small print somewhere that this is all going to happen. (FYI, claiming that you've told customers about the 7-day free trial isn't enough information to do much besides cover yourselves legally). I'm sure, like myself, most customers assumed that whatever services come with that 7-day free trial would just end after the trial period, not that they'd be enrolled into an expensive monthly subscription after the fact. (Why would ANYONE pay $300+ a year for that kind of service, anyway? My most expensive subscriptions - ones that I absolutely need daily - go for about $250 a year. Just more proof that the whole business is shady and gross: They rely on charging unaware customers until they find out, so they need to milk them for all they're worth.)
It's obvious they're being deceptive about it all because they don't tell you up front and more clearly when you first pay that $1.95 that you're automatically enrolled into their membership after a few days. They never even send monthly reminders about payments. I ended up paying for about half a year before I realized. I called Chase and had them dispute it all and refund me. I also just reported this business to the BBB and the FTC so that hopefully, in the future, IQ Institute can be more transparent about their subscription services.
I gave them two stars instead of one because I actually quite liked the service until all this. Instead of charging a deceptive subscription, why don't they just charge more for the IQ tests? People would be happy to pay more for a good IQ test and profile. Their subscription model is just driving business away.

Hi Stephanie,
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with our billing process left you feeling disappointed, especially since you otherwise enjoyed the assessment itself. We understand why this would affect your trust, and we appreciate you explaining your concerns so thoroughly.
The detailed report and membership are offered as optional paid services, and when a membership is selected during checkout, the applicable pricing, trial period, and recurring billing terms are presented before the purchase is completed. We recognize, however, that transparency is essential, and feedback like yours helps us evaluate how we can make this information even clearer and easier to understand.
We also appreciate your suggestion regarding alternative pricing. Hearing how users would prefer the service to be structured is valuable feedback that we will share with the appropriate team as we continue to improve the overall experience.
If there are any remaining questions regarding your account or billing, our support team would be happy to assist. You can reach us here: https://iq-institute.org/contact-us/

Not a scam. You only pay $1 and can verify your intelligence level in a few areas. I don't know if it's fully credible or not, but it looks legitimate. Anyway, it's a nice way to check.

I've done other IQ tests as well and this is literally the exact score I got on the other ones as well so the consistency causes me to think that this is a effective test that it's accurate. I love how it breaks down each category and what percentage you are for each category so that you can see what your strengths are not just your IQ
