is 127 a high IQ?

Question

i took an IQ test is 127 a high IQ? and what is the highest and lowest u can score??? about what level am i in?

Answer 1

Anything between 120 and 129 is considered superior according to the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS), which is one of the most widely used IQ tests.
Did you take one administered by a psychologist or online? The online tests are wildly inaccurate and I wouldn't put much weight into an online IQ test.
The lowest score that you can get on the WAIS is a 45 and the highest you can get is a 155.

Answer 2

There is no lower or upper limit on the IQ score a person can get. The mean and mode of IQ in this country, however, is 100. Most people score a 100. Also the standard deviation of IQ scores is 15. If you know anything about statistics, this means that about 95% of all people will score between 70 and 130. Rounding your score up to 130, you would be in the 97.5 percentile (approximately) of IQ scores. This means that 97.5% of people score less that you and 2.5% score higher. It's a pretty good score, however, not Mensa-worthy.

Answer 4

All IQ tests are graded:

The lowest level of an IQ test is between 70-85 is when someone hasn't reach the full usage of his/her phsycological, physical skills and the level of education.

The Mid level of an IQ test is between 86-105 is means that someone has achieved partially his/her phsycological, physical skills and the level of education and still developing.

The Highest level of an IQ test is between 106-200, so you have to know that Albert Einstein had an IQ of 190, so if you got an IQ of 127 I have to welcome you to the privileged club of Wise guys.

Answer 5

A score of 127 on an IQ test is very good. The average score is 90-109. The problem though is that the test that you took is not valid. See if your school will give you an IQ test./

Answer 7

If you can't figure it out, you're not all that clever.

100 is suposed to be average. You can't realistically score less than 35 or more than 190.

IQ tests don't measure "intelligence" or "cleverness". They measure the ability to do well in IQ tests. An ability which is fairly useless in the real world (but which looks good on resumes)

Answer 8

YOU ARE JUST ABOVE AVERAGE, BUT THE TYPE OF TEST YOU TOOK AND YOUR AGE ARE ALSO FACTORS. THE RANGE OF IQ FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES IS ABOUT 60 TO TO 160, WHILE THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS ON BOTH ENDS. AN IQ OF 190 AND UP IS WELL INTO THE GENIUS RANGE

Answer 9

on a standard MENSA IQ test, perfect is 140, so 127 is good

Answer 10

IQ scores are next to meaningless. They don't measure intelligence at all, they measure your ability to do particular skills.
