By definition, anything over 100 is better than average.
I did take the Tickle test once, but I can't remember if there was any mention that the test scores were adjusted for age. Ideally, scores would be normalized to your peer group, but my guess is that they don't go to all that trouble. On the other hand, even the Stanford-Binet test lumps all adults into the same group, if I understand it correctly. I do know that IQ tests are either modified or interpreted differently for very young children, but I don't know exactly what age distinctions are made.
Anyway, 111 is pretty good. Feel good!
I hope that this helps!

An IQ test score should stay the same no matter what age you are. That is the brilliance behind it. However, The tickle IQ test is not reliable. As for intellagence, don't be consumed by numbers, become consumed with what you can do with what you've got. Seriously tho, 111 is a below average IQ score if you take 120 as average.

I was wondering instead what is a "tickle IQ test"
What are the norms for that new test? Is anything less than 200 an indication of mental weakness? do you get extra points for lol while being tickled during the test? Do you gain or lose IQ if you come up with pointless questions? If it is not a real test then why even bother?
Those answers are essential before anyone can evaluate that result.

It would be a good score. Unfortunately, though, real IQ tests can only be administered by a trained phsychologist. They are only given when needed for a psychological evaluation and the final result is rarely shared with the patient. The IQ tests you see online are usually just quick approximations that don't cover all types of questions asked on a real IQ test.

111 is above average but that number is adjusted for age and so the fact that your 15 years old is irrelevant The formula to calculate I.Q. is Mental Age divided by Real Age times 100. So if you have a mental age of 20 and a real age of 15 your I.Q. would come out as 20 divided by 15 = 1.33 times 100 = I.Q. of 133. An I.Q. of 111 means that your mental age is around 16.65 years.

111 is a decent score but you should not put too much faith in tickle IQ tests: I once deliberately got every question wrong and still got a score of 87.
