What does this IQ mean?

Question

I took a test and it said my IQ is 127. What does this even mean?

Answer 1

Well IQ is short for Intelligence Quotient. It's a standardized way to measure the intelligence of a person. Many tests you take online, however, will have questions or entire sections that would never be in a real IQ test. For the record though, 127 is pretty dang smart.

Answer 2

IQ means intelligence quotient. if your IQ score was 127 that's pretty good .your IQ is gifted.. hooray. generally intelligence is affected by diff factors such as heredity, races, gender, environmental conditions, family upbringing, nutrition during growth and society placement. It's different for chldren andadults.It also varies according to educational level


According to the Stanford-Binet scale normal IQ ranges from 85 to 115. There's a suspicion that Einstein the prototype for a genius may only have just above 160. Is it necessary to have a high intelligence quotient to be a successful (creative) artist or a great musician ?

Generally IQ for Sidis is 200+ and 185 for Savant. Marilyn Von Savant the writer is considered to be agenius. another female is Hypatia,a greed writer.and beauty. Testing the IQ would also be determined by the type of tests, the conditions of testing and the rapidity
of the questions to be answered. which can be stressful and therefore inaccurate.

Here's the table:
85-114 Average junior high sch pupils
115-124 above average senior high sch pupils
125-134 gifted university graduates
135-144 highly gifted intellecuals
145-154 genius professors,musician
artists,fiction writers
155-164 Geniuses nobel prize winners
philosophers, scientists
165-179 high genius
180-200 highest genius
>200 unmeasurable genius
only 1% of the people of the world have an IQ
of over 135or over before attaining age 17.

IQ= Intelligence Quotient

An average person's IQ is around 100. An IQ of 127= Very Superior intelligence


Over 140 - Genius or near genius


***120 - 140 - Very superior intelligence***


110 - 119 - Superior intelligence


90 - 109 - Normal or average intelligence


80 - 89 - Dullness


70 - 79 - Borderline deficiency


Under 70 - Definite feeble-mindedness

Answer 6

An intelligence quotient or IQ is a score derived from a set of standardized tests of intelligence. Intelligence tests come in many forms, and some tests use a single type of item or question. Most tests yield both an overall score and individual subtests scores. Regardless of design, all IQ tests measure the same general intelligence. Component tests are generally designed and chosen because they are found to be predictable of later intellectual development, such as educational achievement. IQ also correlates with job performance, socioeconomic advancement, and "social pathologies". Recent work has demonstrated links between IQ and health, longevity, and functional literacy. However, IQ tests do not measure all meanings of "intelligence", such as creativity. IQ scores are relative (like placement in a race), not absolute (like the measurement of a ruler).

For people living in the prevailing conditions of the developed world, IQ is highly heritable, and by adulthood the influence of family environment on IQ is undetectable. That is, significant variation in IQ between adults can be attributed to genetic variation, with the remaining variation attributable to environmental sources that are not shared within families. In the United States, marked variation in IQ occurs within families, with siblings differing on average by 12 points.

The average IQ scores for many populations were rising during the 20th century: a phenomenon called the Flynn effect. It is not known whether these changes in scores reflect real changes in intellectual abilities. On average, IQ scores are stable over a person's lifetime, but some individuals undergo large changes. For example, scores can be affected by the presence of learning disabilities.

Answer 7

" Little Man Tate " had an IQ of about 180. From people I have met, when you get above 110 you can be considered intelligent, over 120 and you begin to display signs of acute talents and skills of an exceptional level, around 130 and 140, you see a lot of twitching and some serious neurosis. Anything above 150 and you pretty much cannot function around others and are haunted by your own intelligence to the point of mental illness. 115 - 130, these are the people I want to be around, witty, fun, articulate, but level headed and balanced as well. Of course this is not an officially approved scale, and I may be wrong. But it is unlikely.
