  IQ score percentiles
 
Another way to interpret your IQ score meaning is in terms of its percentile rank. A percentile rank shows the percentage of people that scored above and below a certain score. For example, if your score falls in the 85th percentile, it means that 85 percent of the people that took the test got lower scores, and 15 percent (100% - 85%) got higher scores. A normal IQ score is in the 50th percentile, and a high IQ score is roughly one in the 95th percentile and above. The following table will help you interpret some popular IQ scores (2):
