how good is an IQ of 133?

No good without a degree a decent job and money. IQ is your ability to learn, it doesn't measure the amount of knowledge you have. \nTell me who knows more: a 60 year old woman who has seen war,  lived in two different countries, survived riots, had four children, worked five jobs and has talked to tens of thousands of people. Her IQ is 95.\nOr it it a 15 year old with an IQ of 170?\n\nMy IQ is about 140- different tests tell me different things but\nI have very little knowledge. This means that no person is able to amass all of the knowledge in the universe or even their own country. I can always learn.\nAny intelligent person realizes that they know very little in comparison with everything.\nAlso, to add to the comments to the mensa person. I do physical labor for "genius" types. You wouldn't believe how they judge people by looks. And, as far as being around "normal" people. My advice: Remove head from rectum.

100 is by definition average, but it's all right here.\n\n\n\nhttp://www.intelligencetest.com/report/1.htm

It's not the highest or lowest IQ possible, but the limits of the test. Below 50 and above 180 it probably is useless.

A test score is just a number. A number by itself is fairly meaningless. You asked where 142 falls on the gifted scale. Most everyone would consider a score of 142 as highly gifted. The problem is that the number a child gets on an IQ test is not an absolute number. There is always a margin of error, which means the score could be higher or it could be lower by a certain number of points (depending on the test). In addition, the same child taking two different tests (WISC-IV and Otis Lennon, for example) will most likely end up with two different numbers (with two different margins for error). The numbers could be close, but they will still be different numbers. For instance, one number could be 142, while the other could be 133.

average iq is 100 , it is measured and adjusted to your age. So, I.Q. of 120 is above normal.

Depends on who told you your IQ is 126.  Average is 100, so 126 is a bit above average but not genius.  However, an online IQ test is not an accurate indicator of intelligence, so if you got your number from one of those, don't waste your time believing it.  You need to get a proper IQ test from a psychologist or from MENSA to know what the number really is.\n\nI believe it's not what the number is, it's what you do with it that matters.

Well i now feel STUPID! lol I am rolling it at 128.  But I do know people who have scored above 150 two are my brothers.  People are getting smarter!\nDescriptive Classifications of Intelligence Quotients \n  \nIQ Description % of Population \n130+ Very superior 2.2% \n120-129 Superior 6.7% \n110-119 High average 16.1% \n90-109 Average 50% \n80-89 Low average 16.1% \n70-79 Borderline 6.7% \nBelow 70 Extremely low 2.2% \n\nApparently, the IQ gives a good indication of the occupational group that a person will end up in, though not of course the specific occupation. In their book, Know Your Child’s IQ, Glen Wilson and Diana Grylls outline occupations typical of various IQ levels:\n\n140 Top Civil Servants; Professors and Research Scientists. \n130 Physicians and Surgeons; Lawyers; Engineers (Civil and Mechanical) \n120 School Teachers; Pharmacists; Accountants; Nurses; Stenographers; Managers. \n110 Foremen; Clerks; Telephone Operators; Salesmen; Policemen; Electricians. \n100+ Machine Operators; Shopkeepers; Butchers; Welders; Sheet Metal Workers. \n100- Warehousemen; Carpenters; Cooks and Bakers; Small Farmers; Truck and Van Drivers. \n90 Laborers; Gardeners; Upholsterers; Farmhands; Miners; Factory Packers and Sorters. \nWell now I don't feel so stupid! lol

IQ scores are a horrible way to judge intelligence.  However, an IQ score of 126 would be above average.

any test you get off the interweb is really all that trustworthy. now having said that, tickle.com has an iq exam and i got 142, but then again, iq test are utter bullsh*t

81 is average, but I would not put too much emphasis on the number. I have meet some really dumb people with high IQs. Focus on ability and talents, not the nummber.

2 standard deviations above average (100).\n\nThat means 130 or 142 depending on the IQ test(s) being used.\n\nI joined a few years ago, mostly to prove I could, but found the whole thing pretty dull.

Average IQ for everyone, men, women, teenagers, children, boys, girls, ranges from 85 to 115, low average to high average, so an IQ of 100 would be right in the middle.  Many people believe that IQ remains about the same over time and doesn't change much, while others believe it is possible to improve IQ.  HOw you score on an IQ test is certainly affected by many factors ranging from how comfortable you felt in the room to whether you ate a good breakfast to whether you were well rested, if you had a cold, if there were distractions in the room, etc.  The person who administers the test is supposed to say whether anything seemed to affect the score.  People who find it easy to sit still and concentrate tend to do better on IQ tests than people who are fidgety and find it difficult to sit still.\n\nMy most important piece of advice about it would be to not spend too much time worrying about it and just work hard and do the best you can in school and in life.

That sounds like the WISC-III intelligence test, from the Wechsler series of intelligence scales for children. \n\nIf you child has an IQ of 133 that means  your child is in the "Very superior" (top level of human intelligence..He or she is in the top 2.2% of the World's People for his or her intelligence. \n\nHere are some occupations which he or she could expect to enter as an adult:\n\nIQ                 Occupation\n140Top Civil Servants; Professors and Research Scientists.\n130Physicians and Surgeons; Lawyers; Engineers (Civil and Mechanical)\n120School Teachers; Pharmacists; Accountants; Nurses; Stenographers; Managers.\n\nYou can read more about IQ at the link I provide you below. Congratulations you have a very gifted child.

By definition, your score is above average.  IQ is a statistical measure, therefore your result is a function of how well you do relative to everyone else who has taken the test.  An IQ of 100 is the mean score.  15 points is equivalent to 1 standard deviation, therefore 68% of the population scores between 85 and 115.  If you plot your score on a normal curve (mean of 100, standard deviation of 15), the percentile score is 94.5%.  you scored better than 94% of the population.

IQ Score is not everything u know. though i like taking them XP, they're fun, espcially when u see how they try to trick you or you understand why they're tricky, or when i realize taht i almost choose the wrong answer hahaha. ANYHOW.\n\nEinstein never took an iq test\n-------------------------------------------------------------\n\nTime and again the following question is posed: "What was Albert Einstein’s IQ?"\n\nThe intelligence quotient (IQ) is a measuring instrument for intellectual talent. The term was coined by the German psychologist and philosopher Wilhelm Stern (1871-1938) in 1912. The IQ is determined by the intelligence age (I A) in relation to the life age (L A) of the respective person. In standardized tests (IQ-tests), in which the general intelligence is tested, the I A is determined. The IQ can thus be calculated with the formula IQ = (I A/L A)*100. The analysis is done with the help of IQ scales which can, however, differ from each other. Thus the Americans for example use scales which admit IQ values of far more than 200. Thus the mean value of most scales is an IQ of 100. This value represents a normal talent. When indicating the respective IQ the used IQ scale which was used has to be indicated, too.\n\nExample of an IQ scale:\n\nIQ  Intelligence grade \nover 140 excellent \n120-139 very good \n110-119 good \n90-109 average, normal talent \n80-89 low \n70-79 very low \nunder 69 extremely low \n\nNow back to the question that was mentioned in the beginning concerning Einstein’s IQ.\n\nAs far as we known today, Albert Einstein has never done any IQ test. Thus his IQ is unknown!\n\nIn the 20ies scientists had tried to estimate the IQ of deceased personalities such as Mozart (1756-1791) and Goethe (1749-1832) by means of biographic data; thus they wanted to estimate Albert Einstein’s IQ, too. The value estimated for Einstein was between 160 and 180. But this rough estimation can not count as Einstein’s IQ!\n\nChildren also wanted to know Einstein’s IQ. Thus a ten-year-old girl wrote a letter to Einstein at the end of the 40ies which said:\n\n"…I’m writing to you because my cousin and I had a bet. He said you had 175 in entiledgence. And I said you had 190. Which one of us is right. … My inteligence is 145."\n\nBibliography:\n     \nAlice Calaprice Dear Professor Einstein\nAlbert Einstein's letters to and from children New York 2002
