Your score is great, congratulations! A score of 144 falls approximately in the 99.8th percentile, meaning that you scored higher than 99.8% of your peers! Do bear in mind, however, that IQ scores tend to change as you grow up - IQ generally goes down a few points.
As to your last question - you cannot be sure. While it is true that your current score is near the ceiling of the IQ test you took, taking the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scales does not guarantee that you'll get a higher score. The test will be a bit more advanced than the one you took, as it is intended to measure more advanced patterns of thinking that are expected of adult individuals.
In conclusion, here's a general reference chart for interpreting IQ scores:
140+ Extraordinary intelligence
130-140 Very superior intelligence
120-130 Superior intelligence
110-120 High average intelligence
90-110 Average intelligence
80-90 Below average intelligence
70-80 Borderline deficiency
Below 70 Intellectually challenged

That depends on the test. Different tests have different averages. Most are biased for or against certain groups. They have questions meaningful to some people and near meaningless to others.
Oh by the way, the question should have been,"What percentile am I in?" Its a subtle but meaningful difference.

its great... technically if its the same as a regular one you are a "genius"...... even as an adult on the other test you are expected to score about the same unless you got stupider... highly unlikely... but i recommend going to tickle.com and taking another to amek sure... there they describe the scores and everything in detail

I dunno bout any on line yet final time I did an IQ attempt mine grew to become into 126. the accepted is 1000, and its distinctly cool having one greater than the accepted, yet curiously my sister's IQ is 146, and it kinda aggravated me :(
