Am I stupid? Like, really? Honestly? Because I took an IQ test. And my mom said that the average for someone my age is 140. And lets just say I got about 20 less than that... (127).

I feel so stupid. I'm such an idiot.

Hi. Sneaking on. Can't be long.

Your mom is very incorrect. I don't know where she got that idea in the first place. Einstein is awe-inspiring for having an IQ of above 140, because it's so rare. Average for an adult is 90-109. Honey, no. Just... uh-uh. 127 is above average. In fact, it's considered superior. 130+ is genius. You have nothing to be worried about with a score like that. In fact, I'm quite envious.

Furthermore, did you take this test online? Because I don't trust online tests worth crap. I took one a while back and scored 117 using my correct age. Then I went back and retook it with the exact same answers, this time raising my age to eighteen, and got 134. Um, hello there, bias! A lot of the free tests make you think your smarter if you're old enough to have your own credit card. It's a marketing device.

More here, if you like. It's the only clear-cut information about IQ tests I can find right away on Google.
