Not so sure you can compare someone who can learn ( memorise really ) 40 languages with Tesla, who could visualise any 3d complex machine and run it in his imagination like some kind of autocad or computer engineering tool. For mine, Tesla's gifts were the greatest and not having him in this top ten is ridiculous. Good math will give you a high IQ and is one thing, but can that person apply it to physics as did Tesla?

Physicists thru their jobs are basically doing IQ tests every day. So they automatically have high IQs.

There's a lot more to succeeding in life than IQ. Your EQ (people skills), along with what I like to call MQ (Moral Quotient) play a big role. Then there's your drive and determination which is probalby the most important one of all.

Absolutely, Marilyn Savant thinks it could be bad to get IQ tested in just everyone. People may think that it is hopeless if you're found to have a low score.

And there are folks like you and me that with striving for excellence and with hard work (and few psychological hang ups ) can achieve a great deal of smarts. Forget about your IQ.

That is a good question. Depends on what type of intelligence? A technical intelligence which usually the IQ tests measure can be improved to some degree by being passionate and engaging technical and mathematical issues etc. But the creative intelligence comes from being in touch with oneself, so to speak, and cannot be quantified. Ultimately, while a high IQ may be important for some professions, what really matters is what ones does with one's IQ. It doesn't mean if someone has a high IQ that he will contribute anything significant to the world, nor that he is a better or extraordinary human. Our personality consists of many aspects like will, passion, vision, drive, wisdom, etc. What is that an IQ test actually measures? Does it measure consciousness itself? Not really...
