What does an IQ of 110 mean?
An IQ of 110 is in the "high average" range. It places you ahead of about 75 out of 100 people, or roughly the top 25%.
A score of 110 is two thirds of a standard deviation above the average of 100. It is comfortably above the midpoint without being rare, which is why it is a common result among people in study-heavy roles.
About 1 in 4 people score 110 or above. At this level, picking up new ideas and handling moderately complex problems tends to feel fairly easy.
What an IQ of 110 does not tell you
A 110 is a solid above-average score, but the gap between it and an average score is smaller than it can feel. Consistency, curiosity, and follow-through matter at least as much as the number.
