IQ (intelligence quotient) is one way to measure one's brain, so out of interest I have taken a few IQ-tests recently, some actually being structured nicely for being online ones. I will shortly comment each one of them and provide the links.
http://www.iqtest.dk/main.swf - 133 IQ (fairly nice test inspired by Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices)
http://www.highiqsociety.org/iq_tests/ - 121 IQ on eCMA and 118 IQ on TA3 (fairly bad tests; they have more of a "trivia" approach to it and you have to be a native english speaker or a very skilled english speaker to be able to get fair ratings out of these, they have bits that are found in good IQ tests but seem to delwe into nitpick information and knowledge in the other bits)
http://www.cerebrals.org/tests/tri/TRI52.html - 780 score which translates to IQ range of 135-138 (very nice test in my opinion; introduces logical rules and gets progressively harder, also very tiring)
This is not a post to brag with, it's just a post where I want to say this: IQ isn't everything. Having high IQ counts but intelligence can be so much more. IQ doesn't measure social skills, artistical skills and so forth. However we face the question - what is intelligence?
Different people have different perception of intelligence, my perception is that intelligence comes from being understanding, patient, modest, fair and so on. I don't expect others to think how I think, so I try to understand them. Some may think good manners are a sign of intelligence, while some don't find them necessary. It's a personal find, that can be everchanging.
Even stupidity can hold the fruit of intelligence.
