The self-selection bias is definitely something to consider. I’d guess people who feel relatively confident in their intelligence are more likely to take the test.

Many highly intelligent people might decide that it is not worth their time though.

True, and many not so intelligent people may overestimate their intelligence and do it. So maybe it does somehow end up being representative.

No it does very much not end up being representative.

They generally won't ever know that the test exists.
