Question

Is an IQ of 124 average for a 16 yr old female?

Answer 1

Nope it is almost genius level.

Answer 2

For someone with an IQ of 124, you seem pretty confused about what an IQ is.

Answer 3

The average is 100, regardless of age.

Answer 4

it's above average, i think  

Answer 5

its above average..... 100 is average...but iq tests dont mean much and they do not predict whether or not you succeed in life

Answer 6

It depends on where you live.

Average IQ of Taiwan and South Korea (Top 2 countries) is around 126-127

while average IQ of North America is different (Lower) in 11x range

In my opinion, you are a smart girl with potentials.

But seriously, higher IQ does not necessarily benefit you.

When I was 15, I had a friend with 155 IQ and he was pretty messed up in his head (nuts)

Answer 8

IQ = 100 times (your mental age divided by your chronological age)

124/100 = 12.4 12.4*16 = 198.4

So, no, your IQ is not average - it's very much above average.

In fact, the average IQ of the population as a whole is, by definition, 100. IQs range from 0 to above 200, and among children, to above 250. However, about 50% of the population have IQs between 89 and 111, and about 80% of the population have IQs ranging between 80 and 120, with 10% lying below 80, and 10% falling above 120. So you're in the top 10% Congrats, smarty!
