What Is IQ?

An IQ (intelligence quotient) is a score that assesses overall intelligence. The quotient is found through a series of tests that involve missing sequences or patterns, riddles, and general knowledge questions. The average IQ is a score of 100. Anything above 100 is considered advanced or higher-than-average, while anything below 100 is lower-than-average.

The average person typically has an IQ score between 90 and 109. It’s very rare for someone to have over 110 IQ. To put it into perspective, in 2025, the average IQ in the United States is 97.4.[1]

So, how do you find your IQ? There are hundreds of IQ tests on the internet—including this one! IQTest.com, Free-IQTest.net, Genius Tests, 123Test, Brain Metrix, and Mensa IQ Challenge are all reliable options.

What does your IQ say about you? At the end of the day, your IQ score is just a number. Some people test better than others, and while the test can be used scientifically, it doesn’t define who you are.
