What IQ score corresponds to the 95th percentile?

IQ of 125 to 127.

Here’s why:

• The average IQ is set at 100.
• Each standard deviation = 15 points.
• 95th percentile sits approximately 1.64 standard deviations above the mean.

So:
100 + (1.64 × 15) = ~125 IQ.

What does this level mean?

• Very superior intelligence.
• Strong reasoning and analytical capabilities.
• Ability to handle complex problem-solving faster than most.

In academic and professional circles, people with IQs in this range often excel in:

• STEM fields
• Law
• Medicine
• Entrepreneurship

 But remember:
IQ is just one part of your overall ability.
Focus, hard work, communication skills, and emotional intelligence also matter greatly.
