Those who score the highest on standardized tests of intelligence are able to simultaneously do well on both the accuracy and the speed metrics.This book prepares you for both. It has a large number of reasonably simple puzzles, that are designed to be attempted in slowly narrowing windows of time, so that you can build up your speed without being too worried about accuracy.Graded Difficulty LevelsThere is also a challenge section in this book; the entire second part is devoted to puzzles that are a little harder than those that you encountered initially, but that are in the same format, so that you do not have to completely rewire your brain. In this challenge section, it might be a good idea for you to start slow, and initially only look at your accuracy (the percentage of each set of 10 problems that you solve correctly). Once your percentage consistently hires around the 80% or 90% mark, you can start measuring the time you take to get to your high accuracy solutions, and try to crunch that time down in each set of drills. The book is packed with thousands of practice puzzles and riddles, so you do not have to worry about running out of exercise material for your mind There are three main types of IQ tests that this book will train you for.
