IQ – SAT relationship

Average IQ According to SAT Score

There are also studies that directly relate the score obtained on the SAT exam to the IQ of each student. This relationship is purely bidirectional and at no time does the career to which each student aspires intervene; However, we can see that there is a great relationship between the IQ according to the grade and the IQ according to the major, thus, it could be deduced that the most intelligent students who take the SAT entrance exam usually choose very similar majors among themselves, of the same Just as it happens with those with the lowest average IQ.

Ranking – Average grade – Race closest to that Note – CI per Note – IQ by Career

  1. 1269 (Physics and Astronomy) – 132 – 133
  2. 1209 (Economy) - 126 – 128
  3. 1167 (Informatics Engineering) - 122 – 124
  4. 1131 (Earth sciences) - 118 – 121
  5. 1111 (Humanities and Arts) – 116 – 120
  6. 1072 (Natural Sciences) - 112 – 117
  7. 1041 (Arts and Performance) – 109 – 114
  8. 1003 (Communications) – 105 – 111
  9. 968 (Primary education) - 102 – 108
  10. 940 It is the grade that represents the average percentile. The 50% of students obtains a higher grade. – 100
  11. 894 (Social work) - 95 – 103

Just 940 represents the average percentile of scores and obtains an average IQ of 100, which is in turn the average score on cognitive-intellectual aptitude tests.
