[Note: see arguments against the following answer below]
"No. A person's IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is a measure of their ability to solve logical problems and recognize visual-spatial relationships. In general, answering more questions correctly corresponds to a higher IQ, less correct answers mean a lower IQ, but even a person who answered no questions at all, or answered every question incorrectly, would still only be able to score as low as zero." -El Gordo
The above is actually completely wrong. The IQ system is set up as a standard distribution (bell curve) with 100 as the mean score, and a standard deviation of 15. To be negative you would have to be 6.7 standard deviations below the mean. This would be a profound state of mental retardation not necessarily recognizable on an IQ test, but then again once you reach a certain level of mental handicap (well above 0) you wouldn't be functional enough to understand the test at all. Nonetheless just because a special test would be required does not mean that you can't actually have a negative IQ, just as somebody with a super high IQ over 200 wouldn't be measurable by a standard test.
I initially wrote an answer disagreeing with the first response (that a negative IQ is impossible) and agreeing with the second. Theoretically, the IQ test could be designed so that if one scores enough standard deviations below the mean, their IQ would be negative. But I talked with my statistics professor today, who said that an IQ test's scores are fixed so that no one really will come up with a negative score. In other words, the researchers ensure that that won't happen.
There are various websites such as Mensa International, IQTest.com, and 123test.com where someone can take an intelligence test online. It's important to note that online tests may not be as accurate as tests administered by professionals.
A minimum IQ score at the 99th percentile or higher is typically required to join Intertel, which is an invitation-only high IQ society that accepts members who score at or above this level on accepted IQ tests.
An IQ of 150 is considered to be in the "genius" range and indicates exceptional intelligence. Individuals with this level of IQ may possess advanced problem-solving skills, high analytical abilities, and a capacity for understanding complex concepts quickly.
Yes, an IQ score of 112 is slightly above average for a 19-year-old female. Average IQ scores fall within the range of 90-110, so a score of 112 indicates above-average intelligence. However, IQ scores should not be the sole measure of a person's abilities or potential.
No, an IQ of 112 is slightly above average, indicating that you are of above-average intelligence compared to the general population. Intelligence is a complex trait influenced by various factors beyond IQ, and it does not determine one's overall worth or capabilities.
yes,it is possible to have an IQ that high because there is no IQ cap.
Not only is it possible, but many people have the same IQ.
The highest IQ score possible for a person is 200.
Well, honey, having an IQ of 0 is like saying you have negative common sense. Technically, the lowest possible IQ score is around 40-50, which is still pretty low on the ol' intelligence scale. So, no, you can't have an IQ of 0, but you can definitely make some questionable life choices that might make people wonder.
It is not possible to have an IQ of -1.0
Yes an IQ of 183 is possible. The first question that comes into your mind is How is this possible?I have seen somebody with an IQ of 180, that happened in the year 2007. And i assure you that there must be someone who's IQ is higher than that of his. So i am really sure that getting an IQ of 183 or even higher is possible.
you can have a negative IQ. say it is used SD100 and your IQ is 0, that means that 16% of people are duber than you. say it is used SD1 and your IQ is 98, that means that 2% of people are dumber than you.
