Check out this IQ chart. We've got to dumb it down. [View all]

https://www.test-guide.com/iq-score-range.html

A high IQ is considered to be between 116 and 144. Roughly 16% of the population is capable of achieving this score.

Someone on this site said that they guessed most of us fell at 120 or higher.

Then there are a lot of people that are too lazy to “strain their brain (my high IQ brother is one),

The highest number of people (68%) score somewhere in the blue region of the curve. An average IQ range is between 85 and 115—somewhere between “below average” and “above average” intelligence.

50% have IQs of 100 and below. And look at how many people have an IQ of 85 and below.

Someone here was saying that they listened to Fox News and the language level was much lower than MSNBC’s. David Axelrod said that the Dem Party was “Democrats are becoming 'smarty-pants, suburban, college-educated party”

If a lot of us here worked with or were around a bunch of Mensa-level people all of the time - a lot of us would feel pretty stupid and inferior. We might even become angry and spiteful. I admit that I took the test out of curiosity and did not pass within the time limit. I could pass it with an extra hour and a little bit of cheating!
