IQ: Intelligence Quotient

The IQ(intelligence quotient) is a measurement of the mind's various cognitive functions like short-term memory, logic, reasoning, spatial recognition and analytical thinking.
The concept of IQ was first created in 1916 by an American psychologist conducting intelligence tests on soldiers.
The IQ score, derived from standard IQ tests, can be in the range of 69 to 130, with above 100 scores indicating high levels of intelligence.
The average IQ score is 100, and if your score is 130 or above, you are having superior intelligence!
