Is 88 a good FAIQ score?
A FAIQ of 88 is in the low-average range — a little below the midpoint of the scale. It's an honest snapshot of fluid reasoning on this test, not a verdict: scores move with sleep, focus, practice, and the conditions you took it under, and they say nothing about character, creativity, or what you can learn.
What this number does — and doesn’t — mean
- ·It’s on the standard 100-average, 15-point scale — the same one IQ tests report on — so 88 compares directly to that familiar scale.
- ·FAIQ is a broad ability estimate (reasoning ~75%, memory & intuition ~25%), not a clinical or official IQ — and we never inflate it.
- ·No score is a single point. Yours would most likely fall between 79 and 97 on a retest — read the range, not the digit.
- ·A score measures how you did on these tasks today, not your worth, creativity, or what you can learn.
