  There's something you need to know about IQ and IQ tests. The intelligence you're born with is all you're ever going to get. You can't buy it, borrow it, or grow it in your garden. But you're probably not making the most of what you've got. The good news is, we can show you how to do that. The other thing you need to know is that IQ tests, however cunningly constructed they may be, are just another sort of exam. You can practice and you can increase your score. Ok, so you won't actually be more intelligent, but everyone will think you are. This book is a complete practical course in how to boost your IQ score. It starts by explaining exactly what IQ is and how it is measured. Then comes a guided tour through some of the most common types of IQ questions and how they work. The book will train you to increase not only your accuracy but also, vitally, your speed (which is the key factor in attaining a high score). It shows you how even the most fearsome problems succumb to a little logic. It also gives you valuable tips on test strategy (there are plenty of people who get poor scores just because they panic and don't know the basic rules for taking an IQ test). If you need to boost your IQ score, this book will prove invaluable. It is written by people who have unique experience of the highly intelligent. It could help you to join them.
