Your IQ is usually measured over a general IQ scale range. It is a number used to indicate the apparent respective intelligence of someone that is the proportion multiplied by 100 of the mental age as reported on a standardized test to the chronological age.

Typically, over 140 is considered a genius. 120-140 is very superior intelligence. 110-119 is superior intelligence. 90-109 is normal. 80-89 is dullness. 70-79 is a borderline deficiency. An IQ score of 100 implies that the test taker's performance on the test is at the average level of achievement in the sample of test takers about the same age.
