First, IQ tests are designed so that your score takes your age into account. This means that (ideally) a person exactly as smart as you, but older or younger than you should get the exact same score. (So if a person exactly as smart as you, but 30 years old took an IQ test, they should also get 118).
Now for the main part of your question. A score of 118 is more than one standard deviation above the norm (average). This means you scored higher than approximately 86% of people. So, for every hundred people you meet, on average, you are smarter than 86 of them and 13 are smarter than you.
You should be careful though if you took the test off a website or some other place online it is most likely not accurate. The only way to get a real IQ test that is reliable and valid (meaning, it measures your intelligence accurately) is to get professionally tested through a mental health professional or testing center using a carefully researched and designed measure. For someone your age the most likely test they would use is the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-R) which is used to test intelligence in children aged 6 to 16.
And remember, IQ is just a measure of one kind of intelligence, and your results can be affected by things such as ADHD or learning disabilities.
The IQ of 136 is very very good. That means you're almost a genius. If that's who you are, be PROUD. My IQ is 118.
The average IQ for a college graduate is 115. The average IQ worldwide is 100. You are considered in the "above average" category of IQ scores.
Yes, but IQ has nothing to do with age. But your IQ will change in time if it is not.
Having an IQ score of 118 at the age of 16 means you fall in the high average classification. It is 1 step above average.
It is slightly above average, and IQ has nothing to do with age. Your IQ would be the same no matter how old you were. -thanks for the answer

Well, I looked it up and it said that it is very good. Trust me, I know. I'm a sixth grader myself and I did an IQ test and I got the score 118. When I read the information that I looked up, it said that whoever got 118 as a score means that you understand things well and that you have good reading skills. Congrats!
IQ score doesn't depend on age, your IQ is 118 it doesn't matter if your 10,11,12,13,14,15 etc. IQ of 118 is slightly above average, about 3 to 8 point above normal Hope I helped, Y.a.r.o.
