    Your IQ doesn't change throughout your life. It determines your ability to process information and 100 is considered to be average. 135 is gifted and 150 is genial intelligence. 70 is mild intelligence impairments, and 50 is legal retardation (not sounded mean)

    Knowledge doesn't determine IQ. You could be getting honors in advanced calculus and have a normal IQ of 100. IQ is how your brain functions, and how it perceives and comprehends problems. Albert Einstein had an IQ of 160 and did terrible in school. One of the smartest people in the world has an IQ of 195 and he has been a bouncer at a bar for 20 years. There are different tests for adults which is what you will probably be considered when taking the test, and a child which you were at 7. There may be a slight change in IQ by a couple points, but don't expect a 180 because your education.

    The 'average' IQ range in the US is between 85 and 115. ... therefore if his IQ was 86 he we be on the bottom end of average.

    That means pretty much nothing to worry about.. if the test was taken to try and qualify for aid you would not qualify.

    With an IQ of 86 he should be able to handle genealogy education fine..

    The test is broken into subcategories and you can see what areas he excels at compared to where he's weaker...

    My 8 year old son for example had an IQ of 113 (Average) but was much higher in math an science stuff... his lower scores in other catagories brought his average down.

    Also keep in mind kids generally don't take these kinds of tests will which could effect the accuracy of the score..m he should take it aging when he gets a little older.

    Well the average human is right over or around 100, and considering that so long as the test is geared for age itself, the IQ score never really changes.

    So I'd venture to say that's pretty bad.
