Don't take tickle's IQ test. It is highly inaccurate. If you're going to take an online IQ test, go here:

And 127 is a very good IQ. 100 is average. 130 is Mensa level.

Einstein never had his IQ measured. I would suspect it is somewhere over 130. However, remember that IQ is a specific measure of quantifiable mental abilities. Einstein was an amazing physicist, and a very smart man, but that does not necessarily mean he had astronomically high mental abilities. He is a man that dedicated his life to his work, and had a gift for mathematics and creativity...and that is why he achieved what he did. If I had to take a guess at his IQ, probably around 145. High enough to achieve anything you would like to achieve, but low enough to still be able to fit in within society and focus his abilities. Individuals with IQs over 175 often have so much ability they tend not to focus it into a specific area, and their gifts may never be fully realized by the people around them because they are so different.

The average IQ is between 90 and 109. An IQ of 127 is in the Superior range. I don't know what Einstein's IQ was. To get an official IQ test (like the WAIS-III or Stanford-Binet), you need to see a psychologist. The online ones are inaccurate. Unfortunately, you can't take these for free. Sometimes, if you contact the graduate schools with clinical psychology programs, the students need adults to practice their test administration on. Perhaps you can give them a call and see if anyone wants to practice on you.

The average IQ is 100 so you did really well :) If you took the Offical Stanfors-Binet IQ test you would be in the Superior section.

You need about 132 to be accepted into Mensa, so you're not very far off at all.

Alberts was estimated at 160, which is a very very rare score.

This link has a free one:

It's also PH'D certified.

Good luck and well done :)

IQ tests are accurate within 5 points. Your IQ can also change over time. I also wouldn't put much in to online tests. I wouldn't worry though, with the +-5 variance you are okay

What Is Average Iq

2016-10-06 00:17:00 · answer #5 · answered by kinjorski 4 · 0 0

IQ tests can only measure your ability to take tests. If you are very intelligent, and can apply that intelligence to relevent situations, then you already have an above average score. Besides, Einstein had trouble using a can opener, but he was very good at taking tests. It is almost impossible to measure intelligence. If you understand any of this then you are doing ok!! lol

IQ scores are distributed over what is called a "bell graph" - it starts close to the baseline on the left, curves upwards till it plateus at the median score and then curves back down to the baseline.

The height of any point on the curve indicates the percentage of the population who have that score, the distance along the baseline (starting from the left) indicates the actual score.

The mean score is 100 (the peak of the curve) but the "average" IQ scores run from 90-110, or something around there. About 66% of the population have a score somewhere in that range.

You then have three more bands on each side of average.

Going upwards, the first band is "above average" (a bit obvious!) which, if I remember correctly, is scores of 111-125.
Next you have the "superior" band, which is scores 126-149 (2%).
Finally, the "genius" band goes from 150 on upwards (0.5%).

BUT, there are other views on the meaning of the scores. One says that "average" stretches from 70-130 and covers 95% of the population with "genius" starting at 131.
Another says "average" is 90-109, "above average" is 110-119, "superior" is 120-139 and "genius" is 140 and up.

Is that clear? Well hold on one moment more.
A more detailed scale claims that over average scores go:

"Above average" (e.g., university students): 115-124
"Gifted" (e.g., post-graduate students): 125-134
"Highly gifted" (e.g., intellectuals): 135-144
"Genius" (e.g., professors) 145-154
"Genius" (e.g., Nobel Prize winners) 155-164
"High genius" 165-179
"Highest genius" 180-199
"Unmeasurable genius": 200 and upwards >200

But spot the flaw in this last list.

It implies that IQ increases with academic level. But in that case IQ isn't measuring anything innate - only how well you've mastered the culture of whoever is setting the test.

As for Mensa, I think they used to have a score of 149 or 150 as the entry qualification, but not too long ago I saw some of their literature which put 147 as the minimum score for acceptance.

Now come the qualifiers:

1. Nobody knows what an IQ test actually measures, other than your ability to do IQ tests (see above). In the past some people claimed they were measuring innate ability which increased till a person was about 25 and then began to tail off. But if IQ is directly related to education - and keeps increasing (i.e. all professors were once students) as your education progresses, then it is clearly not simply your innate ability.

In reality the first IQ tests were invented to discover whether students who weren't doing well in school were mentally subnormal or just plain lazy.

The tests then got taken up by the US army in the early part of the 20th century, to give ratings for new recruits. Somewhere along the line someone started claiming that they measured how smart the testee was.

BUT

2. An IQ test certainly won't tell you how clever you are, or how successful you will be. Mensa members range from university professors to the out-of-work. I can think of one Mensa member who became a millionaire through a product he co-developed, and then blew the whole deal by refusing to pay something like £20,000 to update his product in line with what was happening elsewhere in the industry.
How smart was that?

Einstein's IQ was ESTIMATED at around 160, but since he never took a test we'll never know.

There are no "official IQ tests" in the sense I think you might mean - that is, tests whose scoring has certified as conforming to some universally agreed standard.
