According to David Palmer's 2006 book, Parent's Guide to IQ Testing and Gifted Education, the average score for customary intelligence tests is 100 with a standard deviation of 15; approximately 50% of the population will score between 90 and 109 on a modern IQ test.
Standardized IQ tests are designed so that the exact average (mean) IQ score in the general population is 100. An â average IQ scoreâ or ânormal IQ scoreâ can be defined as a score between 85 and 115 â between plus and minus one standard deviation from the average.(See the table below).ith standardized IQ tests, IQ tests are designed so that their scores have a âbell curveâ distribution in the general population with an average of 100. This curve has a peak in the middle where most people score and tapering ends where only a few people score. In statistics this is called a normal distribution.
