About the Brightmind IQ test

Brightmind starts with a real online IQ test. It contains 25 questions of progressively increasing difficulty and measures your intelligence quotient on the standard 100-point IQ scale used worldwide. Most adults finish in about 20 minutes and get their score, percentile, and cognitive profile right away. Your score is your starting point, a snapshot of how your mind works today.

Unlike short personality quizzes, this is a real IQ test calibrated against age and gender norms, scored on deviation-IQ norms. But a score is only the snapshot, a number tells you where you stand today, it doesn't change on its own. That's why Brightmind doesn't stop at the test: once you have your benchmark, the app trains your brain a few minutes a day so you keep building on it.

The test is free to start, and every completion comes with a results summary showing your score, percentile, and cognitive profile. And unlike a one-off quiz, your result isn't the end: it's the baseline Brightmind uses to start training your brain, a few minutes a day.
