What should the BMI for an 11 years old be?

Answer 1

You will need their height and weight to get a more accurate measurement. They are sill growing so it will never be that accurate though.

Body mass index, BMI, is a number generated by dividing your weight in kilograms by your height in metres squared. Then checking it a map to see which zone it falls onto.

BMI isn't very accurate though as it relies on averages and doesn't include frame size and muscle mass (not that i guess a 11yr old would have excessive).

Answer 2

No,Because we can measure BMI only after 18 yr old i.e after reaching in adult.To measure BMI we need a stable height,tht's only we get after 18 yr old.So,here a 11yr old child we can't measure BMI.

It’s a little higher than “average“ but I don’t think you need to worry right now
