Most real IQ tests incorporate your age into your score- if your brain is still growing, you can't be expected to have all the cognitive functions of an adult.
Don't trust the online tests, especially if they don't ask for your age. They're just for fun. If you really want to know your iq, talk to your school's guidance counselor about getting tested.
100 is the average, 70 and below is mentally disabled, 140 and above is genius. The minimum to join mensa is a score between 131 and 148 (depending on the test taken).

I.Qs are calculated using the formula 100 times your Mental Age (MA) divided by your Chronological Age (CA): IQ=MA/CA.
Your mental age could be that of a 20 years old while you're only 15. Your chronological age is your actual age. As a result IQ tests are aged based. Your score is compared with other teenagers in your age group and rated. If your score surpasses your age group scores, then your score is compared to adults' by a method which predict your IQ when you reach the adult age.
104 is not below average as someone suggested. 100 is average, and as a teenager still growing up, your brain hasn't reached its full potential yet, so don't be alarmed.

An IQ test will be given, and points will be scored for every question answered correctly (or partially correctly). The final score will be divided by one's age.
I'm sorry, but an IQ of 104 is below average. Approximately 115 to 118 is the average IQ for anyone. The higher IQ, the better. For example, an IQ of 167 would be incredily high.
