What is a 'high IQ'?

Hi My tested IQ is 140, but I have no idea what this means. If anyone knows what it means or even if this is good or bad, let me know please! Also, what is your IQ, dont be ashamed if it's low, one of the worlds greatest poets had an IQ below 90!

If your IQ was 140... you would not be here asking what it means... you silly sausage. Top IQ usually are 150 Mine is 120... and I reckon yours would be 90... for asking this question. 150 are nerds... while 120 is a good average for a normal smart and wise person. Being the greatest poet does not make you smart. It just makes you very good at writing poems. The IQ test is base on a wide variety of subjects to test your general knowledge all around. You don't need to be an expert in anything. You just need to know a little bit about everything.

I know what an IQ is, I just wanted to know what other people had. Maybe I phrased my inital post wrong: I meant is as in what do you think of 140, and what are your IQ's.

Same IQ, same interest in music (see one of my other posts). Next you'll be telling me that you're the same height as me! I think we live in some parallel universe.

I do not have an official answer, but my impression is that anything over 120 is high.
