I got 117, but I didn't skip any. Time ran out at 24-25, can't remember. I'm skeptical at what pattern recognition has to do with intelligence to be honest. I'm 45 and been programming since my teenage years, maybe that has been helpful as most if not all patterns in these tests are basically combinations of bitwise operations. Back in university I did the Swedish version of this (~20 years ago) and scored 140+. I don't think I did any worse now. I've heard the scale is constantly calibrated, so I guess people in general are smarter nowadays :-)

I suck at math BTW.

I wondered if skipping was worse than answering randomly.

yeah, its actually stupid. they even say it! but i just can't gamble. I somehow feel bad doing it...
