Best Answer

William Shakespeare died in 1616. IQ tests were developed in the early part of the 20th Century so his IQ was never tested. It would probably have been quite high! - However IQ tests have trouble testing a persons creativity and since Shakespeare was such a creative person it would be wrong to say that his IQ would be high because he is creative, but because he was extreamly witty and intellegent, not just creative Some people think that IQ tests do not measure your intelligence but more your ability to do IQ tests...

There were no IQ tests in Shakespeare's time, and opinion is divided on exactly what "IQ" actually measures, other than the ability to do well on IQ tests. So nobody knows, and it doesn't really matter anyway.

It depends what you mean by clever, of course, but he had a pretty good grip on using language to achieve various purposes.
