I took one online about 10 years ago and it was 154 , I doubt mine is that high. that's insanely high although my daughter was tested in her senior year of high school and she was 129 she graduated second her class with honors and got a scholarship for engineering
Sometimes very high intelligence is not reflected on an IQ score. One of the most important things for genius is a creative and intuitive mind, and creativity and intuition are not measured by IQ tests.
IQ tests measure how "logical" you are, that is, how good you are in derivating(deducting) effects from causes in a non-contradictory manner, but not all of reality can be understood with logic. For instance, physics at the subatomic level does not operate with laws that are logical(cause and effect) but seem to in fact circumvent logic in many ways. Music, poetry and literature are not purely logical either. A Kafka novel is not very logical and yet it is supreme literature.
A difference between IQ and total intelligence can best be explained by comparing Einstein and Oppenheimer. Robert Oppenheimer was the chief of the Manhattan Project and was possesed of an utterly stratospheric IQ. At the age of 4 he was writing in three languages and multiplying six-digit numbers by each other in his mind in seconds and by the age of 6 he understood the fundamentals of calculus and went on to earn his doctorate in physics at age 21 summa cum laude. His IQ was too high to be measured by any test but was estimated at around 180. Yet, despite his prodigious intelligence and becoming chief of the Manhattan Project in his twenties, Oppenheimer never created anything important in physics. Einstein, conversely, had an IQ score of "only" 158 according to the Wechsler scale, but he created relativity and won the Nobel Prize for the photoelectric effect. The difference between the two was Eintein's superior ability to imagine and abstract, which Oppenheimer lacked even though Oppenheimer was more logical than Einstein - which is not to say that Einstein wasn't extremely logical. Being very logical helps to make breakthroughs, but is not enough.
A man with an IQ of 100 or even 130 will never be a great physicist. To be a truly great physicist, an IQ of at least 150 would be required. But a man with an IQ of 180 will not necessarily be a better physicist and won't necessarily be a greater genius than a man with an IQ score of 150. Chris Lnagan has an IQ score around 200, possibily the highest in the World, and he hasn't contributed anything noteworthy besides breaking the celings of IQ tests.
