This test is very good, but it's definatelly not an IQ one. Why? Because it's atest about knowledge, particularly on physics and nanotechnology. There canbe done general rules about the relationship of one's knwoledge and intelligence (ability to process, manipulate, obtaining, developing, creating, conserving........etz, knowledges), but you can't try to determine someone's intelligence by knwoledge. Oh, no no...definatelly not. What about, let's say, Mozart? He was a genius, he had an enormous intelligence...But I can tlel you that he knew notihng about nanotechnology and probably very very little about the physics of those time...and there are many other cases.
