It depends to some extent on how you define "average". Most modern IQ tests are designed to give a normal distribution curve, meaning that 2/3 of the people will score within one standard deviation of the mean. (On the Stanford-Binet test, this means between 85 and 115).
It's in the Average range.
A Standard Score of 108 is at the 70th percentile and falls in the "Average range" on many common cognitive assessments.
In statistical analysis, the range is the lowest to highest score. The median is the exact middle, and the mean is the numerical 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.
A score of 100 on Wechsler's is a flat average, so 108 is slightly above the flat average, but still within the average range.
It's in the Average range.
The standard unit of measurement is T score which compares your bone density with that of a healthy young woman. A T-score is within the normal range if it is -1.0 or above. A negative number means you have thinner bones than average. It can later on be converted into percentages.
Standard Score of 85-115
Percentage of the average that does what. If you are talking grades, the Number of people scoring the average score divided by the total number of people in the class x 100 = % of students scoring the average.
100 is the average IQ. The average for every age is 100. It is worked out based on one's peers' score. If your IQ is 109 in your teens, it is likely to be close to that score or at that score when older. An IQ of 109 is within the average range. The average range is between 85 and 115. 68% of people fall within this range. (This is based on an IQ worked out with a standard deviation of 15, most modern tests performed use this. The majority of professionally administered IQ tests today are the Wechsler adult intelligence scale and the Wechsler Intelligence scale for Children.)
To interpret percentile ranking you must know the percentage of the group. Arrange the scores from the highest to the lowest. Compute the percentage of people with scores below 23%, and compute the percentage of people with scores at 23%. Add the percentage of people with scores below the score to one half the percentage of people with scores at the score to obtain the percentile rank. e.g If there were 20 children with varying scores, and 23% was the only score obtained by a student; then one score is (1/20) of the class, or 5%. 2 children scored lower than 23%; so (2/20) of the scores is below 23. The child with 23% will receive a percentile rank of 2+(half of 5)=4.5%. Brenda
The term "mean" is another way of saying "average." In order to calculate a mean percentage score, you must add together all the percentages, and divide the total by the amount of percentage scores being used.

An average IQ is 100, but with a range of between 80 and 120. A score above 120 would be considered above average.
If this is your FICO Score, then NO. FICO scores range from 300-850, the average score in the USA being 687. If your score is 489, it may be time to get proactive and start repairing your credit.
