    May I ask, what kinds of puzzles do you do?

    The way it was explained to me is that many people with high IQs feel the need to exercise their brains via video games, puzzles, etc. So yes, you're probably quite intelligent, and your aptitude for puzzles may be how that intellect manifests itself.

    Everyone has a skill with one thing or another (or several), i can solve logical puzzles very easily and have a high spacial awareness but a maths question beyond the basics can make my brain seize like a cheap computer. Good for you btw reading and puzzless keep the mind fresh and open to new learning.

    Intelligence is relative. I score off the charts and I have a "learning disability".

    Never took the test. Probably a combination of both, but being good at puzzles usually means you have a logical and active mind.
