“IQ” represents an intelligence quotient, indicating an individual’s intelligence level. This concept surfaced in 1904. Since then, ongoing debates have ensued regarding the true significance of these numerical values. Despite the absence of a unanimous consensus on this matter, these tests persist in their utility for assessing the IQ of diverse individuals, including those who have long departed.

We were interested in comparing the IQs of science luminaries in history with the scores of modern celebrities. And many of these results surprised us.

Are you surprised by the results? The fact is that many celebrities in the past received a good education and prepared to work at a regular job. By the way, some stars, already after they became famous, decided to leave Hollywood and lead an ordinary life. And this is also fascinating!
