I think your numbers are off by a good margin here. I landed at 144 on my last test, and that only places in the top 2%. I think the 99.9999 percentile would probably be more like 180+. There's usually only a handful of them in the world at a time. A group I used to be in had a specialized test for "super geniuses". They were ridiculous. I took a crack at it once, and I only got like 3 out of 30 correct.

Above the 110 mark the system becomes subjective as at that point it's more of a measure of how much trivia you know and no longer a measure of baseline cognitive function. I've scored between 118 and 168 but it was really dependant on how I was doing that day; a little pollen and little sleep and I can easily tank it.
