That's a normal distribution. The average is right in the middle, at the peak. Being in the "top 65%" means 35% of people have a lower score.

couldn't be clearer.

on the bright side, even if this were a really good test, 94 is probably within margin of error from true average.

You think a person with 90โ€“100 IQ knows this shit? ๐Ÿ™ƒ

I'd say statistics knowledge is probably related to wether you've studied it or not, not so much your iq score

And a person with low IQ probably wouldn't study much statistics. Probably.

In a way it is? 94 is below average, and I don't think even the average person is representative of someone who knows about the normal distribution.
