IQ is a number formed from cultural standardised testing system in catagorising children and adults of their ACADEMIC intellectual ability. It doesn't test other intellectual abilities nor is it the correct predictor of how well they will perform in the future, nor should it be used across the world. An IQ number is simply another label. Labels are stupid. It is suggested that it's better for children to NOT be exposed to IQ testing because if they were they would either become egotistical or their self esteem would lower.
On a side note: my IQ this year is 114. My IQ last year was 157. From supposedly highly gifted to now average intelligence. Yeah, apparently I've become dumber in less than a year. Pffft. I don't trust these things whole heartedly anymore.
