    That score falls about within the average range for anybody. Average is from 85 (low average) to 115 (high average). However, the tickle tests are not real IQ tests, so that is not your real IQ score.

    First of all, all an IQ really does is tell you how well you do in IQ tests compared to other people and that gives you an idea of how "smart" you are. Most people rate between 90 & 110 so 118 is above average. Some people score very highly in some areas and poorly in others. However, there are a lot of other factors to consider - one obvious example is people who don't read well and often don't score highly even though they may be very intelligent. Also, your general health & mood can affect your score. Obviously taking a test on the computer because you feel like it is much less stressful than taking one in a noisy classroom when you would rather be hanging with your friends. Anything that challenges you intellectually will help you develop the logical, critical thinking skills that will boost your IQ Score.

    IQ tests adjust for age

    It is a little above average. Standard deviations of these tests usually range between 15 and 20 points. This means that you score higher than about 2/3 of the people in the world -- and lower than 1/3.

    Your score is slightly above average on the tickle test.

    This test is not really an acceptable IQ test, Take an individual one given by a psychologist for a much more accurate assessment. You school may also have an IQ rest on your record.

    With traditional testing procedures, IQ doesn't change much with age.

    You're above average in the types of Intelligence measured by IQ tests.

    Remember though, there are a lot of forms of intelligence (musical or mechanical ability) that aren't measured well by traditional IQ tests.

    Those aren't real IQ tests. It's probably good but it isn't an actual measure of your IQ as IQ tests are administered by a professional and requires using physical objects.
