While Magnus Carlsen has never taken an official IQ test, it is estimated that he has an IQ score of 190. This places him well ahead of some of the smartest people in history, including Albert Einstein and possibly even the great Bobby Fischer.
These "estimates" come from websites that use famous names as hype in their adds trying to lure fools into paying to take their online tests to prove how smart they are.
My estimate of the IQs of people who believe this bs is probably a shade less than 1/2 of Magnus' estimated IQ.
Einstein never did an IQ test and given that we don't know how much Mileva Maric helped him, it can never even be estimated. Same goes for Isaac Newton, who stole Robert Hooke's work.
i got a D+ on mine. only cuz i shut the left side a my brain dn way before ever buying a #2 pencil.
I thought you run on pure left side
Funny how the smartest people in history are anti-Semitic, plain racist, genocidal freaks. Also, this list is utter nonsense:
Half of the bottom-half, kick upper-half's butt. Half of Harvard, Cambridge, Brown, Oxford and other top 10 universities, kick the butt of the new bottom half of this list.
Love Sharon Stone btw!
It says, before you start writing these posts, 'please be relevant and kind.' How is it that almost no one has followed this advice.
What makes you guys think being good at chesss means you have a high iq ? Kasparov was one of the best at chess and his iq was measured at 135.......thats avg ivy league student

"Probably".
More like you just pulled some numbers out of your backside.

An IQ of 135 is over two standard deviations over the mean, it's a high IQ.
The reason a chess player might be expected to have a high IQ is the similarity between chess puzzles and IQ tests.
The estimated Ivy league IQ of 135 is not based on actual IQ scores, it's based on the similarity between SAT tests and IQ tests, and the assumption that a ivy league universities base admission primarily on them.
If you can use the similarity between IQ tests and SAT scores to infer IQ, you can do the same with chess puzzles.
Ultimately I'd expect a far closer correlation of chess players with IQ than e.g. scientists; because chess lines up much better with IQ's testing methodology, and all IQ measures is how well you score on IQ tests.

From what I've read, there's a positive correlation between chess skills and IQ, and it's very weak. Chess skills mostly depend on the time and effort you put into practicing and learning chess. IQ is a very very poor substitute.
