What does an IQ of 135 mean?

Assuming that a score of 135 was earned on a test with a standard deviation of 15 (not 16 or 24) (e.g. Wechsler, as opposed to Stanford-Binet or Cattell), said score places one at the 99th percentile (assuming a mean score of 100; globally, mean IQ is approximately 88, circa 2015, placing a score of 135 above the 99.9th percentile [one per one-thousand people]). There are some intellectual (high-IQ) societies that accept only individuals who have scored at or above the top 1% (mean 100); the largest and oldest of these is Intertel.


Should the outlier be used when reporting the average test mark?

Outliers, that is scores outside the expected range can distort the average score for the test. As a result, many teachers will dismiss the high and low score in averaging the test and establishing the curve for grading. This theory is why the median can be more valuable than the mean in evaluating test performance.
