At the end you'll get separate results for Memory IQ, Verbal IQ and Spatial IQ in addition to the overall score. So if you don't think knowing words has to do with intelligence, you can just ignore the verbal part.
I'm skeptical of other parts of it as well; for example, one of the memory sections uses logos from popular software projects (inkscape, gnome, etc). It was a lot easier to remember the logos I'd seen before vs the ones I hadn't.
I think it's a neat test, and I'm curious to compare results with my friend who's an artist (I found the visual components challenging). But it seems less robust than something like ravens matrices.
