Is an IQ of 120 good for a 13-year-old girl?

Answer 1

Generally IQ (Intelligent Quotient)is determined by standardized tests such as Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - III. Scores between 90 and 110 are considered within the average range. So a 111 is a good score. The test and scoring scheme already take age into account, and 100 is the average score. IQ tests and scoring systems are orangized in such a way that 50% of the population in the age group scores between 90 and 110, with 25% above and 25% below. So a score of 111 puts you just in the top 25% of your age group.

Answer 2

Average IQ on many standard tests is scaled to have a mean of 100 with a standard deviation (SD) of 15 points, so a score of 129 is almost two SDs above the mean. About 68 percent of the population will fall within plus or minus one SD of the mean, and 96 percent will fall within +/- two SDs. A score of 129 is very close to the 98th percentile: only one person in 50 will have a higher score. But remember: IQ measures aptitude, not achievement. If you wish to succeed, you must apply yourself and work hard. Only effort and perseverance can achieve results. *With an IQ of 129 it is quite reasonable for your parents and teachers to expect you to do well, both in high school and college. *Really Good

Answer 3

A properly administered IQ test will be adjusted for age, among many other factors. If you score 120 at 13 years of age, that score should remain relatively consistent throughout your life. By definition, the "average" IQ is 100, so a score of 120 would place you well above the population average.

Answer 4

An IQ of 122 is good for anybody. The average is 100. 122 is above average, but not at genius or Mensa level. It's very good and she should be proud of her achievement. What is important is how a person uses the knowledge they obtain, not how they are "ranked" according to their IQ or status.

Answer 5

Hiya, the IQ of 134 is gifted ( according to a chart).

However not to toot my own horn ( you know what I mean) but I am ten almost 11 and have the same IQ of 134!

Hope this is what you wanted!

*E* :P

Answer 6

The average IQ, by definition, is 100.

Therefore, at any time of life, anything greater than 100 is good.

"Genius" level is somewhere north of 140+, so 124 is very good.

Answer 7

IQ tests are designed to be age appropriate. And considering the fact that the average IQ is 90 - 110, a score of 114 is excellent!

Answer 8

No. The average is 90-105. 122 would mean that you have the IQ of someone who would be ready for college at age 18.

Answer 9

Yep!..
