If you want a valid estimate of your IQ, you need to contact a psychologist for an empirically validated test that is normed on a representative sample of the population. The tests you take online are not valid measures and honestly, I have never seen anyone take those and get an IQ score below 120. I think they are designed to stroke your ego. You also cannot estimate your IQ based on your age or education. If you really want to know, contact a psychologist for testing.

The average IQ is 100, this comes from a calculation which is actual age divided by apparent age time 100.
So if you apparently age, your apparent maturity if you like, appears greater than your actual age then your IQ will be higher than 100.
If you had a 20 year old with an IQ of 200 then their apparent age would be 40.
If you had a 60 year old with an IQ of 200 then their apparent age would be 120. This is interesting as most 120 year old people are dead so you have to ask yourself is a person is dead or just has a very high IQ?
Another interesting point is that although you may have a high IQ at a certain age that IQ level will fall as you get older if you catch up with your apparent age.
Does all this really matter when you take into consideration that the man who invented to IQ test rigged the results to make himself seem to have a higher IQ than anyone else.
In a test for a job some years ago my IQ came out at 140, I can’t say it has done much for me so why worry about it.

By the way tell you some jokes:
-Doctor! I have a serious problem, I can never remember what i just said.
-When did you first notice this problem?
-What problem?
One more joke:
A guy calls his vet and says "What should I do with my cat?Vet says "What do you mean? Guy says "I had a leak in my lawnmowers gas tank and the cat drank the gas. Then the cat began to run around and around the yard, climbed a tree. then fell out of the tree stiff. Vet says "Is the cat dead? Guy replies "nope he ran out of gas.
Last of all just want to tell you that whatever you do, just don't give up. Also you must love and care for the people around you. In that way they will also show you the love that you show to them. Just be yourself and happy everyday. Wish you all the best and good luck!!
