Chess Player iq

You don't have intelligence to use unless it is what you believe it is not

That's a more modern thing and you know how things get inflated and over-dramatised. In the 60s, as I recall, he was estimated to be 160 but that was admitted to be a sheer guess. I have an IQ over 160 so I can't speak from experience but I think Einstein demonstrates thought patterns of 150 max. A lot was wrong with his thinking. At 160 people might be assumed to be starting to get above that sort of stuff as in the way he thought, which wasn't healthy. You should be able to figure a way out of it.

Having said that, I believe Jimmy Savile was 149 and perhaps that supports my guess for reasons you will find very difficult these days to research.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to try to measure IQ at 180 and above. Only 50 in every billion people are in that range. There's no good way to calibrate a test for such a tiny fraction of people. However, there's certainly a case to be made that Albert Einstein was the most intelligent person to have existed simply due to his body of work, in particular his discovery of the General Theory of Relativity. Anyone who has taken the time to learn it finds themselves in complete awe of how he arrived at it. 108 years later and only a small minority reach the level of being able to understand it, even when carefully explained.

Sometimes they try to estimate iq by getting a timeline of the person concerned and comparing ages at stages they start to read etc. Einstein was a slow developer in some respects and, as an adult, was sociopathic and emotionally unhealthy. A person with 160+ iq is more likely to work out a way forward by themselves. Obviously that isn't definitive but a probability.

I think that Magnus is the smartest of all chess players. But I also like Garry or Emmanuel

Guys chess doesn't determine IQ
