The average IQ for all people at all ages is a standard score of 100. The average range for some tests (such as the KABC-2) includes standard scores from 85 - 115. For some tests (such as the WISC-IV, WPPSI-III, WAIS, WNV, SB5) is 90 - 109. Either way, 100 is dead average.
Yes, You are above average. Average is between 100-110 * * * * * Yes, it is a good score but the average is 100. If given as a range, a score of 100 should be in the middle of the range! Usually the tests are normalised so that the mean is 100 and 1 standard deviation equals 15. That is, 68% of the population would score in the range 85 -115 (100-15 to 100+15). THAT is the average, rather than 100-110. Also, IQ test scores are supposed to be age-adjusted, so your age is irrelevant.
100 is meant to be the average. Many IQ tests set out to standardise the tests in such a way as to make 100 the average.
The average "IQ" on many standardized IQ tests is a standard score of 100. The "Average Range" is often 90 to 110 or 85 to 115, depending on the measure used.

The average score on an IQ test is about 100. If you score higher than that, your score will be above average.
go do your homework
IQ tests are standardized so that the average score for any age is 100. This is because the formula for an IQ is (mental age)/(actual age) *100. If a person can think as well as their age group, their IQ will be 1*100=100. So at any age, 100 is average.
The short answer is yes.The longer answer is no. The tests are designed so that the average score is always supposed to be 100. However, people have been scoring better and better over time, so maintain the 100 average they have (basically) made it harder to score well on the tests. This keeps the average score right at 100.This means that an IQ of 100 today means a person is more intelligent than someone who scored an IQ of 100 20 years ago.

The answer for any average IQ score would be 100 based on the statistics of the way the tests are developed. 68% of people will score between 85-115. 95% of people will score between 70-130.
If her average over five tests is 88 then her total is 440 The most she could have scored on each of the other four tests is 100 - 400 in total, leaving 40 as the minimum from the last. Proof - we have awarded her 100 in four tests and 44 in the last - if she only got 43 in the last then on one of the others she would have to have scored 101 - but that's not possible.
Average IQ score is 100.Your score is 'average'.
