Look at the IQ ranges.
Very superior 130+
Superior 120-129
High Average 110-119
Average 109-90
Low Average 80-89
Borderline 70-79
Extremely Low 69 and below
The average IQ is around 100. Don't worry too much about one or two points. IQ scores have confidence intervals. If someone has an IQ score of 100, their 95% confidence interval may be between 105 and 115, meaning that 95 out of 100 times, their score will fall between 105 and 115.
So, if your IQ score is 89, don't beat yourself up because of one point short of average. Cognitively, there isn't a big difference between 89 and 90.

It depends entirely on the type of IQ test you took.
If you get a number such as 135, it really means nothing. On one test a 135 may signify a very high IQ on another it might be low.
If you are looking for a comparison of how your score measures up against others who took the same test, or in the same age/social group, you should look at your "percentile" score. If you score within the 94th percentile, that would mean that 6 percent of all people in your same group who took the test scored higher than you, and you scored higher than 93 percent of the rest.
IQ is very deceptive as an indicator of intelligence, however. It can lock a person into believing that they are smarter than they are, or worse, tell a person they aren't smart at all when they are! It's not an indication at all of how well you'll get along in life, or how successful you'll be. Many schizophrenics have very high IQs.

you need to in all threat seek for suggestion from the psychiatrist who administered the attempt. in case you realize the source of any given IQ attempt you're taking and don't understand a thank you to interpret it, you need to touch whoever administers it. We, needless to say, won't be able to inform you the call of any given IQ attempt (as though we would understand). With all due appreciate, in case you have faith you have dyspraxia, you need to have a communication with your wellness care expert/psychiatrist to diagnose no rely if or no longer you quite have it. Now, I take it you have completed basically that considering the fact that, in accordance with what you have mentioned, you took "expert" IQ exams. if that's the case, the psychiatrist who administered the attempt in guy or woman must be waiting to respond to your question. we could be blunt, except there is somebody right here who is conscious the information for the particular attempt you have taken (the call of which we have no clue), then we are no longer able to respond to that component to your question, regrettably. additionally, a remark on what SquareRobot mentioned: ACTs or SATs isn't waiting to help in proving something. they're basically college placement exams and in maximum circumstances, the questions approximately them are no longer a attempt of elementary experience or IQ. i understand some very clever people who have not scored interior the best percentile of those exams. those exams could tell him his proportion above a inhabitants, yet of a inhabitants of scholars (via fact maximum human beings of human beings taking this attempt are pupils).

I interpret my IQ to be a baseline from where I might see my potential learning skills.
