After looking at an exemplar intelligence test by Dennis Child created in 2007 I realised that to complete this intelligence test successfully you need to use analytical-mathematical and linguistic intelligence.
The whole concept of a general intelligence has been disputed by a number of commentators. I do not think 'intelligence testing' of this kind can be useful in measuring intellectual ability as it only caters for a certain type of intelligence. To pass this intelligence test a person will have to be trained on how to answer these types of questions. This may be useful for IQ testing but it is not relevant to modern day intelligence which comes in many different forms.
