Really clever
I'm going to post a poll with this, because I'd be interested in what the IQ of forumites is. There's any manner of jokes available from that point...
Mensa Workout
If anyone wants to give it ago (though this isn't a propper score.
I have done the official mensa one and did get 126 which is apparently in top 8% need top 10% to be in mensa.
Different places give different IQ ratings. One online questionaire might give you 150 odd then you do Mensa and get 90.
IQ Scores - Average IQ Score at IQ Test Center for scores and meanings
Gary Bushell is a Mensa member. I merely offer the facts, nothing more.
I can't remember the exact number but I did an IQ test a few years ago and I was 'above average'. But more importantly...I had a higher IQ than my husband, which upset him for the rest of that year.
Isn't the whole high IQ thing a load of old arse anyway? As I understand it, a lot of intelligence tests are culturally biased anyway (which led to a lot of non-English speaking immigrants to the US being described as 'near-imbeciles' in the 1920s because they didn't understand the language in which their intelligence tests were written.)
Marilyn Mach Vos Savant has/had allegedly the highest IQ ever (220 I think) but what has she ever done of note?

I've heard it said that he failed his diploma exam at Zurich Polytechnic, but this is debated. I know that S Hawking was fairly undistinguished until quite late on as an undergraduate - you would have expected him to have got Starred Firsts in Part 1&II of Tripos, but he didn't.
'TV Brainbox' Carol Vorderman is also a member of the Nines club, so mathematical agility doesn't necessarily make you 'clever'; at least not in a rounded way.
Einsteins is about 160 apparently - see here
I have no idea what my IQ is. I did do an IQ in my last year of primary school, but I never did see the result. I probably skewed it slightly, as the teacher made the mistake of telling us the test got gradually more difficult, thus the complicated questions were at the back. So I started from the back
