: Yet, there are two curious things about this one. First, the norm was set at 118, not 100, upon the (mis?)apprehension that people who are clever enough to know how to turn on a computer and log onto the Internet are a notch above the sigma +1 range. Second, the test scoring is based on standard deviations, with 150+ being the 99.87th percentile, or about 1 in 714. Is that the ideal bell-curve figure? I imagine that, theoretically, 1 in 100 would achieve a score of 148 (3 SD's above the mean). Maybe Bart, our math whiz, can answer that question.

Hell no, you used too many technical words, they confuse him and he won't participate.
