Hello,

I recently took an IQ test, and today I got the results through the post. It says my IQ is in the top 10% of the population. Is that good? I mean, It it worth noting on my resume, etc? Or is that just average? or slightly above?

Any input appreciated. Thanks.

At the risk of getting a 1 for this answer, if you got "top 10%" and you don't know if this is average or slightly above average, then I don't think the IQ test you took was very accurate... Unless you have solid credentials like MENSA membership, stuff like this does not belong on your resume.

(Rating: 3) 1 would be far too harsh!
It was a Mensa Supervised IQ test, but obviously you need to be in the top 2% to join Mensa, so point taken! I'll leave it off the resume!

I was just curious: Its always a good conversation point. I know, I'll just be bragging. But that's what I do...it makes me feel better about myself :)
