What is the Smarter Than Average Quiz?
Six classic instinct-trap logic questions — the kind where your gut answer is usually wrong — test how often you catch yourself before answering. Your raw score is converted to a percentile using a stated, reasonable normal-distribution model anchored to a commonly observed average on this style of question.
The result is a big shareable card with your score, a percentile estimate, and a funny label from 'needs coffee' to razor sharp.

Questions people ask
Is this a real IQ test?
No, it's a small set of classic cognitive-reflection-style logic questions, not a validated IQ test.
How is the percentile calculated?
Your raw score is mapped to a percentile using a normal-distribution model anchored to a stated, commonly cited average correct rate on this style of question.
Is my score compared to live users?
No, there's no live leaderboard; it's a statistical estimate, not real-time data from other people taking the quiz.
Can I retake it?
Yes, though you'll remember the answers, so the 'trick' effect fades on a retake.
Are the answers explained?
The questions are classic logic puzzles; searching any of them by name will show detailed explanations.
