http://www.highiqsociety.org/iq_tests/

And Im a 14 year old girl. My score was 114, is that good for my age?

Answer 1

The average IQ of the American Adult is about 90.....You're smart! =]

Answer 2

Wow, you're smart!

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

IQ average is always 100. The test should factor your age into before computing your score. So if the test was truly accurate, you have above average intelligence.

Answer 5

I think so.  :P

Answer 6

im pretty sure thats dumb.... as dirt

Answer 7

00 means the statistical average, 200 is genius, 0 means you are dead!

a normal person scores 100

* 1% of the population have an IQ below 65.

* 2% of the population have an IQ below 69.

* 5% of the population have an IQ below 75.

* 10% of the population have an IQ below 81.

* 20% of the population have an IQ below 87.

* 50% of the population have an IQ below 100.

* 80% of the population have an IQ below 113.

* 90% of the population have an IQ below 119.

* 95% of the population have an IQ below 125.

* 98% of the population have an IQ below 131. (Mensa entrance limit)

* 99% of the population have an IQ below 135.

* mild mental retardation: IQ 50–55 to 70; children require mild support; formally called "Educable Mentally Retarded".

* moderate retardation: IQ 35–40 to 50–55; children require moderate supervision and assistance; formally called "Trainable Mentally Retarded".

* severe mental retardation: IQ 20–25 to 35–40; can be taught basic life skills and simple tasks with supervision.

* profound mental retardation: IQ below 20–25; usually caused by a neurological condition; require constant care.

A dog can have an IQ of 70.

To answer your question, you are above average. Bravo.

Answer 8

It doesn't matter about your age. 100 is intended to be average, so 114 is above average.

Answer 9

its about average

Answer 10

Ha i beat you i got a 124. :)

Answer 11

well since I got 95 and I am 13 then yes that is good, but it wasn't a normal IQ test.

On a normal IQ test I normall get around 115 or something.

Answer 12

IQ doesn't go by age, because the tests are based on age...an IQ of 100 is always average, but a real IQ tests takes several days to complete and costs a lot of money, but strangely the one I took had almost the same results as those free internet ones...

Answer 13

yes -but think about how well you do in school!!

Answer 14

these test are not accurate.......the average iq is about 90 something...........

Answer 15

...maybe...

if the test it's real than you are probably above average...

but, it's online thing... so...

Answer 16

Okay, so the way IQ works: the average IQ is ALWAYS 100. The test is designed so that for any given age (or other determining factor), the average is always going to be 100, and the rest of the distribution will fall along a bell curve. It's graded accordingly, to make this happen.

One other thing. No offense, but there are a lot of online IQ tests, and most of them are out to flatter you. I don't know how much legitimacy that one has, but in general they want you to do well and tell people so they make money from advertisers. Which isn't to say you wouldn't do well on a real one. If you're interested I'm sure you can find one, but you will probably have to take it in person.

Update: I just perused that test. It is definitely not legitimate. For one thing, an IQ test definitely has to ask your age, which this did not. For another, they are trying to sell you membership in their exclusive "club," or the method of getting there. So, I wouldn't sweat this thing too much.

Answer 17

yes it is good

Answer 18

average is 90-100

Answer 19

On line IQ test are very subjective.  They are usually prone to deviation of +/- 15 points on average.  Even the validity and accuracy of professionally administered IQ test is questionable.  What a boils down to is quantitative IQ matters very little.  You will find an area your naturally apt in and excel.  My experience is that your effort does more for you than being "naturally gifted"

Answer 20

there is no average iq for ages i mean was 136 when i was 12 and im like 140 at 13 about to turn 14

Answer 21

Mines higher and I'm 13, but then again I am very intelligent. So yours is average.

Answer 22

average for anyone is 100. so that's actually quite good for a 14 year old! but only IQ tests properly administered are 100% accurate cause they're made specially and u cant get them online.

Answer 23

The average IQ is like 90-100 or something like that.

Answer 24

the average IQ for a 14 yr old is around 100

if your IQ score was 114, that's a pretty good score!
