The average range for human intelligence is 80-110. Most IQ tests are accurate from 60-160. IQ tests in and of themselves are not terribly useful except for school work. People with IQs above 130 are very smart at chool work but that doesn't mean that they are able to function socially. There is an IQ high enough to be used by itself for a diagnosis of mental illness. The IQ tests are more useful in the lower ranges for determining the success of the taker in school.
High or low, an IQ test tests only your ability to play the little games and do the little puzzles, it really doesn't mean anything in the real world.

IQ tests are greater ideas puzzle form of questions, and the ACT is something you are able to prepare for in case you so choose. in case you're worried approximately doing properly, i'd surprisingly advise it. attempt taking prepare tests, take an academic classification, or positioned money right into a prepare.

there are so many types of iq tests...and they all score differently. I really don't think they are an accurate guage of intelligence though, so I may be the wrong person to answer.
However, My Mom is a "shrink" so I've taken several types of iq tests and scored pretty high, yet in "real life" I am very aloof and have absolutely NO sense of direction(N,S,E,W), kinda clumsy, so....I dunno if iq tests are accurate, ya know?
