What is the highest rating of IQ ever recorded?

0

I’m fairly certain there is a 200+ IQ score but if you think <0.5% of the population are 140 or above, that means about 4 standard deviations, so 10 points is about 1 deviation, a 200+ score is 10 standard deviations 7σ 99.99999999974 % That's...

The highest IQ ever recorded is probably what people are wondering about. I have found that the highest IQ ever recorded is Marylin Vos Savant, however I do not believe this statement. Her IQ was 228 and was tested when she was a child, wich means the test she took when she was a child was a simple test made for children. The test she took when she was an adult was 186, and it was not taken as a test for children, but for adults. I have found that she negates to the idea of taking the test again, (she probably is afraid of losing her record.) I believe that the smartest person that ever lived was god, nonetheless his IQ is estimated 350+.

The highest IQ ever RELIABLY recorded belonged to South Korean Oong Yong Kim. Unlike Marilyn Vos Savant whose IQ was measured in her 40’s and skewed by her advanced age, experience, and education, Mr. Oong Yong Kim was more reliably tested when he was a mere 4 years of age. He got into the Guinness Book of World Records for this feat. But the Records officers never take into account that the more reliable IQ measurements are done at childhood ages with no skewing factors. And unlike James Siddis who no longer has the prodigal gift in mathematics amd has never been tested or verified to fluently speak several languages as a child, Mr. Oong Yong Kim, on the other hand, has been reliably verified as both a mathematical prodigy and a multi-fluent linguist since the ripe old age of 4 years. Moreover, during a 1960’s television show in Japan, Oong Yong Kim performed integral calculus mentally (without pen or paper), composed poetry, and fluently mastered 4 languages at the age of 4, without

On a more modern level, the highest IQ ever recorded was by Marilyn vos Savant with 228; however that is a mental status ratio IQ (used for children). Adult IQs are measured by standard deviations, in which her adult IQ would compute to about 185, which is lower than famous chess master Bobby Fischer (187). Other contenders would be Leonardo da Vinci, estimated at ~200. Another would be William James Sidis, estimated also at a similar level. Statistically speaking, the highest possible IQ would be a probability of about SD 6.7, or 1 in 100 billion (total number of people who ever lived). In SD IQ, that is about 200. Thus, theoretically speaking, that is the maximum IQ possible. All the preposterous stories about people with IQs of well over 200 are impossible. In fact, no one has probably ever reached an adult IQ of 200. There are, however, close contendors. An example of an ultra-elite group of intellectuals would be the Giga society, which accepts people only with an IQ of 196 or hig

The highest rating of a person that was very intellectual may have never been recorded. I believe that the prize goes Albert Einstein. I mean think about it, he helped come up with the theory of relativity! I have posted two links on this subject. He was also the person of the century.
