[mazie]

[ethandron]

[mazie]

errrm. Yes I would

[sandyRoe]

Mine is 147 and yet I don't feel like I'm a genius.

[mazie]

highest ever IQ score is ???

[Bbbananas]

I thought that was the highest possible break in snooker sandy - are you mixing things up?!! ;-)

[sandyRoe]

I must be, Salla. Was it 47 maybe? I can't remember.

[mazie]

We all have our genius moments sandy

[mazie]

228 is the highest ever IQ score

[Booldawg]

I think Mensa only accepts 145 or better. Lack of social skills helps too.

[sandyRoe]

Yep that's me. Brilliant but socially inept :-(

Men are usually more interested in a women's breast size than her I.Q. I usually find. That is a much more noticable thing than the aforementioned test score. You can actually get a T-shirt for women which says "My face is up here", across a woman's chest.

Cool, eh?

IQ is only a measure of intelligence, it is what you do with it that is important. For instance, my son has an IQ of 160 which is genius level, I believe, but he has never done anything with it at all. He would rather sit and read than do anything else. As for pushing back the boundaries of science, forget it.

117 is just fine. wd be even better if I cd aspire to that !!!

[karatant]

117 is fine, wish I cd aspire to that !

short of dementia related issues, your IQ remains constant over life, apparently. However, one thing they are picking up on is the type of profile can differ. My ex and I had similar IQs (over 150) and we are very differently profiled especially on maths and verbal reasoning......the frightening one is my youngest who, age 8, is way over 180.

[DTCwordfan]

John Stuart Mills, philosopher was in excess of 220.

[DTCwordfan]

1% of the population over 135 is the quoted figure.

Bobby Fischer, of chess fame, 187

Goethe 213...

Da Vinci way in excess of 200.....

DT I hope your son doesn't waste it, that is a really high IQ. He could be the one to save the world in the future. How exciting that would be. He must certainly be gifted.
