What are you talking about? A 130 IQ would score better than 98% of the population. It's a fantastic score. It's highly likely that you'll never meet anyone with a score that high, in a general sense.

No idea on IQ.

The Stanford binet is deviation in nature.

They tend to lump 130-145 together.

If you know more than 100 people, across a variety of income and education levels, it is extremely likely

This can be said about the vast majority of people who rise to power in any tangible way. It takes a certain mindset to get to the top.

I don't think the guy knew what the Stanford-Binet was. He said a doctor or something told him. I can't remember. But it was clear, from his reasoning ability, or rather, his inability to realize I was making fun of him, that his IQ was not in the top 2% of the population.

I'm skeptical. Still from a probability sense, it's exceedingly rare. In the sense that it would be impossible to tell the difference between a score of 128 or 130 in real life interactions means that people overestimate the amount of people who have IQ's in the 130+ range.

It's still asinine to suggest that scoring 130 and above is anything less than superb, and limited to a very, very, very small subset of the population.

All I know is I did a drunken ban bet to see if anyone could beat my score, and some dickhead got 1 point higher.

I immediately forced myself to sober up and beat his by three.

I still upheld the bet though.

I'm not a worthless crawfishing frick like wheels.

so what was your score ? or better yet, you're average score ?
I've found IQ tests, even those administered in an academic setting, to be quite volatile.

No idea. I never bothered to look it up in relation to IQ.

I do know 44/50 on their online version is the best I've ever done.

Because it is more of a deviation rather than set score, I can tell you 25/50 would put you at average, by default.

Assuming they understand their own testing methodology

I will assume they do.

Eta: average score would be 42/50. I've only taken it three times.
