I Q


An intelligence quotient (IQ) is a score derived from one of several standardized tests designed to assess human intelligence. The abbreviation "IQ" was coined by the psychologist William Stern for the German term Intelligenzquotient, his term for a scoring method for intelligence tests he advocated in a 1912 book. When current IQ tests are developed, the median raw score of the norming sample is defined as IQ 100 and scores each standard deviation up or down are defined as 15 IQ points greater or less. Approximately two-thirds of the population scores between IQ 85 and IQ 115, and about 5 percent of the population scores above 125.

Only 5% above 125? How about above 140?

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
