My IQ is by no means above 200.
The test I took was a standard test, the kind you pay several hundred/thousand dollars to perform (funny story, my elementary school paid for it in entirety, and after I took the test and confirmed I was indeed gifted, nothing ever came of it, as the elementary schools in my district had absolutely no budget for the development of gifted students). While there is some variance between the tests, the rough standard follows the format:
140 and over Genius or near genius
120-140 Very superior intelligence
110-120 Superior intelligence
90-110 Normal or average intelligence
80-90 Dullness
70-80 Borderline deficiency
50-69 Moron
20-49 Imbecile
Below 20 Idiot

For the record, the test I took, Waff, was by no means inflated or "easy". It was as standard as they come. fyi
