Question: If my IQ is 126 (about) does that make me smart? Does anyone know the scale for IQ? 

Answer: Yes, that makes you smart, at least with regard to school-related ability. Now, that doesn't mean that you are using your abilities well, but you do have above average academic intelligence. \n\nDescriptive Classifications of Intelligence Quotients\n \nIQ\nDescription\n% of Population at this level\n \n130+\n Very superior\n 2.2%\n \n120-129\n Superior\n 6.7%\n \n110-119\n High average\n 16.1%\n \n90-109\n Average\n 50%\n \n80-89\n Low average\n 16.1%\n \n70-79\n Borderline\n 6.7%\n \nBelow 70\n Extremely low\n 2.2%\n \nRemember, also, that IQ tests have "measurement error" that means that your "true" score could easily be anywhere from 110-140! Remember also that it takes up to 15 points difference between your score and someone else's score to have a true difference in scores between the two of you.
