An IQ score generally refers to a score obtained on one of two individually administered tests - the Wechsler scales or the Stanford Binet. The tests that you do on line are not real IQ tests, and do not give real IQ scores. They are fun to do and amusing and they tell us something about ourselves, but they do not give a real IQ score. If you did three or four different on line tests you would most likely have three or four very different results, which immediately suggests lack of accuracy and reliability. Most scores on these tests are above 110, which also indicates lack of accuracy and reliability. Of all the on line tests, the Mensa tests are probably the most reliable.

The IQ test can never be accurate b/c it doesn't test anything but common sense/knowledge. Don't rely on accuracy. However, the international IQ should be just as accurate as the national one.

Do you know which IQ test it is or the standard deviation? Did you have it administered by a professional? A 137 could be exceptional or it could be simply above average, it all depends on which test you took.

Since scoring high enough on the test will get you an invitation to spend $50 of your hard-earned money on joining the society, I would question the validity of the test.
Believe me, that's $50 I wish I had back.
