A character who is a genius, ideally, tends to stand out. But that's not enough for most authors, who really want to drive the point home that this character's intellect is so far beyond that of a mortal man, that there is no way anyone can match their intelligence. Luckily, there's a fairly basic solution - give them a high IQ score. Of course, Bigger Is Better, so the natural tendency is for these assigned high scores to reach truly absurd levels. After all, a character with an IQ of 200+ clearly is the smartest kid on the metaphorical block, right? Right? This one is a staple of the TV Genius. If handled poorly, it may turn into a case of an Informed Ability. Contrast Improbably Low I.Q.. To illustrate exactly how improbable a given IQ score might be, see IQ Testing. For numerical stats, see the analysis page. Compare Elite School Means Elite Brain and Geniuses Have Multiple PhDs, other easy ways to indicate a character is a genius. |

T.J. Henderson of Smart Guy is stated to have an I.Q. of around 1000. Though this is likely an exaggeration as he is often outsmarted by adults in high positions such as the executives of the Colonel Bubble soft drink company. | |

In the short story Flowers for Algernon, when the main character, Charlie, who has a realistic, low IQ of 60, gets an intelligence enhancing surgery, his IQ starts rising until he comments "I don't know what IQ is, except mine will be over 200 soon." The novel treats this a shade more realistically — the Charlie's IQ gets as high as 185, but another character comments that Charlie's intelligence "can't really be measured", highlighting how unreliable IQ tests are at the extreme ends of the scale. |

The lead character of Scorpion claims to have an IQ of 197, and that his four person team has a combined IQ of over 700. But despite that, the four of them combined have the social skills of one ordinary person, which is why they have to hire a fifth member - a waitress - to be their interface with normal people. | |

Crash Bandicoot's sister Coco is said to have an IQ of 162. She's very good with machines and in general is a genius compared to her brother. The gallery of rogues includes several mad scientists, including his creator, Neo Cortex. However, their exact IQ is unknown for sure, besides perhaps N. Tropy, they're just comic relief. |

Bones: Temperance Brennan. We don't know the exact number but it's 'significantly above' 163. In one episode, Booth and Brennan investigate a murder at a research institute that accepts only people with extremely high IQs. Bones herself applied but was turned down, as her chosen field has to do with the past, while they're focused on the future. Every scientist of the institute is shown to be as socially awkward and logical as Bones, to the point of treating sex as a natural release with zero attachment. Zack comes close or possibly surpasses Brennan. In one episode, the group was discussing a character of the week being like Zack and Zack replies “if he’s in the stratosphere, I’m in the ionosphere.� |

Janine Kishi from The Baby-Sitters Club series is supposed to have an IQ of 196. Since she's a minor character, this is mostly revealed through her use of Spock Speak, her apparent lack of friends, and the fact that she owns a computer. Also some offhand mentions of her taking courses at the local college. | |

The functionally illiterate Charlie from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is given an experimental intelligence pill in Flowers for Charlie. After this, he estimates his own IQ at 175, and tells the researchers he could "crack 200" if they doubled his drug dosage. The pill is a placebo and he's as dumb as ever. The experiment is to show how people become arrogant if they're told they're geniuses. | |

Martin Prince of The Simpsons has an IQ of 216. Professor Frink, 199 (though it lowers to 197 after he hits his head). Comic Book Guy and Dr. Hibbert were both in the 170s. Stephen Hawking? 280 (granted, that's just what he claimed).note Ironically, the real-life Hawking did not know or care about his IQ; according to him, anyone who boasts about it is a loser. Lisa is another example, whose IQ is a somewhat more realistic 156 (according to "Homer's Enemy".) | |

Eureka gives Jack Carter's IQ as 111, averting the 'always extreme' part of the trope. It's pretty realistic, considering Carter is slightly Book Dumb but fairly clever. His daughter Zoe tested a 155, putting her in competition with the rest of the town (all geniuses shipped in from across the country). This is somewhat justified in that Eureka, of all places, would use an IQ test equipped for extreme high outliers. | |

Shikamaru from Naruto is said to have an IQ of over 200. So far only his dad and Temari have given him a run for his money in that department. Since he's explicitly stated to be perhaps the smartest person in the world, it isn't as improbable as some of the other figures on this page; his IQ is over 200, but at least one person in Real Life has had their IQ measured as over 200, so if he is the smartest person in the world, his IQ could well be in this range. | |

Actually used correctly in Idiocracy. Although most people in the future have the "average IQ of 5" (which should be impossible, since 100 is defined as the average, but they're all idiots so they don't know better), the protagonist Joe, who was average in his time, has an extremely high IQ in the future. We're never given a number, and it's implied they literally have no way of measuring it. | |

King of the Hill had a very funny nod to this in one episode, with Hank mentioning that Peggy has an amazingly high IQ, 170, as she's told him many times. Peggy admits that that's true, but still worries about her intelligence since "that is only my own estimate." She is almost immediately thereafter taken in by an internet IQ test scam which sells her several "overnight" PhD programs for people of exceptional intelligence. | |

Da Capo: When discussing Sakura's entrance exam results for their school, she says she scored 160. Junichi privately remarks that that isn't bad for someone who can't read kanji (the test is scored out of 250). However, it turns out that Sakura wasn't given the standard exam... what she took was an IQ test. Later in the story, she is re-scored with her inability to read kanji taken into account, and is bumped up to 180. | |

In The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon's and Leonard's exceptional IQs (187 and 173, respectively) are very high, even given that they are both physicists. IQs this high actually exist, though it is highly improbable that two of this level would accidentally be in the same gang. note For the record, Howard's IQ is 155 and Raj's is 148 (and Bernadette's is 186 !) | |

The Pokémon Squad: The IQs of RM, Max, Kowalski, and RM's Other Friend are revealed in "Mind Over Max" to be very close to infinity (within 8 to 8.0015 points). Max bemoans being the least intelligent of the four, but the others point out that his IQ is still exceptionally high. | |

Schlock Mercenary: Kevyn Andreyasn, a Mad Scientist whose inventions include a hyperdrive that upset the galaxy's 100,000 year old balance of power, is generally considered the smartest human in the galaxy. At one point, Kathryn says he has a four-digit IQ. Thurl raises his eyebrow at that, and Kathryn admits she's prone to hyperbole. | |

Red Dwarf: Holly, the computer, has a stated IQ of 6000 (said to be the equivalent of 12000 PE teachers, although when he is accused of having one of only 6 he claims that would be a 'poor IQ for a glass of water'), and is friends with another computer with an IQ of 8000. Too bad s/he's also senile. (They were also able to accidentally boost it to 12,368 at the cost of reducing her remaining life expectancy to just under three-and-a-half minutes.) In "Holoship", there is the crew of the holoship Enlightenment. The captain had an IQ of 212. The rest of the crew were assumed to be at super-super-genius level too, so presumably they had enough people to establish a decent results curve for their admission test. |

The X-Files: In the episode "Roland", Roland apparently can't even be taught to operate a door opening system, has limited speech ability, passes the time in his group home with activities for young children such as stickers, but is said by Scully to have an IQ of slightly above 70. Short of comorbid problems, his speech issues alone indicate at least moderate retardation, but >70 IQ is above the threshold for even a classification of mild retardation based on IQ alone in modern times. | |

In Quantum Leap, Sam Beckett's IQ was said to be around 200. So is his daughter's. This is in line with the other ridiculously capable intellectual abilities he seems to have - like the seven doctorates, Nobel Prize, ability to speak seven languages, read Egyptian hieroglyphics, beat computers at chess by the age of 10, perform advanced calculus by the age of 5... and, of course, inventing time travel. The show at least gave a semi-plausible explanation for any time he came across as less than the smartest person in the world (i.e., any time it was obvious the show was written by people with IQs below 200): the time travel process gave him partial amnesia (and exactly which parts he could and couldn't remember could change each time he "leaped"). | |

In the beginning of the first chapter of Soon I Will Be Invincible, Doctor Impossible mentions that eighteen (and later events in the book suggest at least one more) individuals, including himself, have an IQ of "300 or more." The book later mentions the Stanford-Binet; Doctor Impossible thinks the heroes' estimation is "insultingly low." Doctor Impossible's opening chapter acknowledges how atypical he is; one of his major problems is that there is literally no one he can possibly relate to. He actually is the one in six billion. | |

All she wants is to save her doomed people, her friends in prison, her evil inter-dimensional double and the baby of Trunks, Goten, Piccolo and Vegeta that she bears.

In Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol the data file Ethan Hunt pulls up on the main villain matter-of-factly states his IQ as being 190. While real people have achieved scores that high or higher, the margin of error is huge enough to render them practically meaningless. The computer would have done better to say that he's among the five hundred smartest people on the planet, which is a bit less sketchy a figure. | |

In Malcolm in the Middle, where at 165, the titular character has the highest IQ of all... until in comes Barton, who skipped grades to be in the Krelboyne class, had an IQ over 280, and was apparently going to work for NASA immediately after the episode ended. Unfortunately, probably because of the other genius characters being at the very top end of realistic IQ scores, most of his intelligence was shown by having Malcolm haul around the Idiot Ball for the day. | |

The Pokémon Alakazam has a IQ of 5,000, which seems even more insane considering that this is an entire species rather than a single super-smart individual. (It seems even more implausible that such unparalleled intellects would spend most of their time trapped in little balls and participate in fantastic cockfights. Unless they prefer that lifestyle to living in the wild.) And they still cannot remember more than four moves. | |

In the first Metal Gear Solid game, Liquid Snake and the genome soldiers are explicitly stated to have an IQ of 180. Yes, those "It's just a box" guys. Their comical ineptitude is mostly down to their lack of actual combat experience, their genetic mutations giving them brain damage, and their brainwashing by Psycho Mantis which compelled them to be suicidally incompetent so Snake could get by them to activate Metal Gear Rex. Snake himself has a slightly more realistic IQ of 165 in spite of his inability to remember anything. | |

Dr. Spencer Reid of Criminal Minds says he has IQ is 187, as well as possessing an eidetic memory and the ability to read 20,000 words per minute. He qualifies that statement by saying that he doesn't believe that intelligence can be accurately measured. Every single time that he brings it up. In an early episode, the team goes to the CIA headquarters and is given a quick background on each agent worth investigating. One agent has an IQ of 192. | |

Rama II: Wakefield's score of +5.58 on an intelligence test indicates he is one in 10^5.58, that is, in a group smaller than one in 100,000 of the population. Sabatini is 1 in 10,000, and so is Brown. Though such people exist in a population which is large (assuming the validity of the measure), they are gonna be hard to come by.note Converted to IQ, those would be scores of 168 for Wakefield, and around 158 for Sabatini. | |

Stealth example in the Lois & Clark episode Smart kids, where some children drink an intelligence-boosting serum. Although no explicit score was given, the scientist who created the formula stated that its effects were much greater than the "10 to 100% increase in IQ" he expected; also, the children were smarter than average to start with. This means their IQs must have been much higher than 200. | |

Artemis Fowl (from the books of the same name) is said to have one of the highest tested IQs in Europe, apparently somewhere around 200. Also, Opal Koboi is said to have an IQ of over 300. Justified by the fact that she got this score on a fairy IQ test, where it is apparently plausible. The fairy IQ test might cover all species of fairies, including goblins, who are notoriously stupid, and trolls, which are basically gorillas in terms of physique and intelligence. Were this the case, it would not be unlikely that the average non-goblin non-troll fairy would have an IQ around 180, with pixies and centaurs (the two smartest and rarest species) averaging 240, which would make Opal Koboi's IQ of 300 much more plausible. |

Averted in Frasier, where the undoubtedly brainy (Harvard and Oxford educated) titular character was tested and had an IQ of 129, which whilst still high, is technically below the Mensa cut-off point. Niles's, on the other hand, is 156, despite their mother claiming there were only two points between them. Naturally, hilarity ensues once the true scores are revealed. | |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: In the episode "The Nth Degree", Lieutenant Barclay's IQ is temporarily raised to "somewhere between 1200 and 1450". Barclay, his mind boosted by an intelligence-enhancing device and then hooked up to the Enterprise's computer, estimated his own IQ in this case. Certainly, if he were anywhere near as intelligent as his stated IQ implied, he would be capable of this kind of extrapolation. In an earlier episode, Q's IQ (no pun intended) is given as 2,005. Of course, he's essentially a demigod... and is known on at least one planet as the God of Lies. |
