The Great British Intelligence Test: How to take BBC’s IQ test
THE GREAT BRITISH INTELLIGENCE TEST has made Britons think about the way they are using their brains - but how can you take the BBC's IQ test?
The Great British Intelligence Test on BBC Two is examining the effect our digital habits are having on our mental capacity - whether positive or negative. In the Horizon special, Dr Hannah Fry and Michael Mosley put the public to the test.
The programme put young against old, males against females and tech lovers and readers against each other in a battle of wits.
The results reveal new science about how our intelligence changes throughout our lives.
Leading scientists at Imperial College, London devised the test, with more than 250,000 people around the nation have taken part so far.
Horizon's show explores how our gender can affect our intelligence and uncovers groundbreaking new science on how our lifestyle and love of technology is changing our brain.
