Answer 2

The average IQ is, by definition, 100. To get an idea what this means, someone with an IQ of 80 or below is considered to be marginally able to cope with the adult world. People with IQ's of 80 or below typically work as unskilled laborers such as lawn maintenance and trash pickup. They generally need help from friends or family to manage life's complications. About 10% of the population has an IQ of 80 or below.
People with IQ's of 80-90 are a little on the slow side but may be found in fast-food restaurants, day-care centers, etc. They may also be found in unskilled jobs. About 16% of the population has IQ's in this range.
People with IQ's of 90-110 generally occupy semi-skilled positions, including typists, receptionists, assembly line workers, and checkout clerks. They are able to keep up with the world, and comprise about 46% of the public.
People with IQ's in the 110 to 120 range fill the skilled trades and include some tool and die makers, teachers, and Ph. D.'s among their ranks. They also make up 16% of the population.
People with IQ's of 120 and above tend to staff the professions as doctors, dentists, lawyers, teachers, and college professors. They fall in the upper 10% of the population.

i actually just took an iq test over the summer because i was trying to get into gt (gifted and talented) classes and they said that the average iq is 100 my iq happened to be 109 the average iq for getting into gt classes is 130. A score af 78 is technically below average but i believe that everyone is smart in their own ways. I honestly think that the people that you work with are just bullies and they have nothing else to do with their time-basically ignore them they are acting in a childish manner.

Answer 4

Yeah 78 is QUITE low, I think you're below average, 100 is average. Read some books instead of listening to people who are horrible like that. Don't be a push over or a skivvy, be clever.

Answer 5

Uhhh...the median IQ for the average person is 95-100. A 78 is near retardation. And if your an adult now, you can't improve your intelligence.

Answer 6

It depends on which company gave you the test. Average can be anywhere from 70 to 150.
Tell your so called friends that it is not fair to pick on the less fortunate. And try not to hang out with them they are not good friends because good friends dont do that.

Answer 8
