The scale doesn't even go up to that level (not necessarily)!
![]() Here's an indication of what your IQ score actually means: Over 140 - Genius or near genius 120 - 140 - Very superior intelligence 110 - 119 - Superior intelligence/High Average 90 - 109 - Normal or average intelligence 80 - 89 - Dullness 70 - 79 - Borderline deficiency Under 70 - Definite feeble-mindedness High IQ & Genius IQ Genius IQ is generally considered to begin around 140 to 145, representing ~.25% of the population (1 in 400). Here's a rough guide: 115-124 - Above average (e.g., university students) 125-134 - Gifted (e.g., post-graduate students) 135-144 - Highly gifted (e.g., intellectuals) 145-154 - Genius (e.g., professors) 155-164 - Genius (e.g., Nobel Prize winners) 165-179 - High genius 180-200 - Highest genius <200 - "Unmeasurable genius" A few IQ tests will vary on what they consider to be "average"/"above average"/"genius", etc, but what I have provided is a rough guideline of what your scores mean. NB: if you really want your IQ taken, go to a specialised psychologist. The fact that you attained, say, 130 on a test, is not to suggest that you're actually a genius; it simply means that online IQ tests don't mean half a ****, and the results likely to be ****ed up (not saying that anyone here is dumb ). Go to a specialised educational psychologist or something of that sort if you really want your IQ measured accurately. And that's if you're really bold, too.
