Have you ever extensively researched different subjects and/or topics as to increase your worldly knowledge? In this particular question it is phrased with non career subjects in mind. So if you are currently going to school to study Japanese and Software development such as Program Coding or such, with the intentions of moving to Japan to code software it would be irrelevant to this particular question. Have you ever studied anything that would be unnecessary to you in life? Such as perhaps going to the library and reading up on a particular subject not based on interest of that said subject but just to have an understanding or comprehension of something unfamiliar?
That's how I started getting into experimental music. I just grabbed a number of books a while ago. Even my alais here is after an experimental composition.
How about you?

i often research and look up stuff, some times trivial things if thought of in the context of my studies. Always things i'm interested in, but i find i'm interested in a lot.

Also the nature of IQ tests are such that increase in knowledge should have a neglegable effect in the score you acheive.

yeah i was just thinking, IQ is not really about knowledge.
Although some IQ tests are critisised for requiring some sort of knowledge, especially culturaly specific things that may give you a better result than a person from the other side of the world even though you're not smarter.
