IQ test for 11-year-olds
A free picture-puzzle IQ test made for 11-year-olds. It has 12 puzzles, takes about 12 minutes and compares your child only with other 11-year-olds. An IQ of 100 is the middle for this age; 110 to 119 is above average and 130 or more is very high. No name or email is needed.
What to expect at 11
At eleven children often switch schools. A quick test before the move can start a good conversation about strengths.
School tests at this age
Around 10 to 11 children in the UK sit the 11+, and CAT4 is common at the start of secondary school in UK and international schools.
What is a good IQ for a 11-year-old?
For a 11-year-old, 90 to 109 is average, 110 to 119 is above average, 120 to 129 is high and 130 or more is very high (about 2 children in 100). Because the score is compared within the age, a 100 at age 11 means the same as a 100 at any other age.
| Score | What it means | Children with this score or higher |
|---|---|---|
| 130 and above | Very high | about 2 in 100 |
| 120 to 129 | High | about 9 in 100 |
| 110 to 119 | Above average | about 25 in 100 |
| 90 to 109 | Average | about half of all children score here |
| 80 to 89 | Below average | |
| below 80 | Low for this age, worth a calm talk with the school |

Questions
How long does the test take for a 11-year-old?
About 12 minutes for 12 puzzles. There is one time limit for the whole test; speed does not change the score.
Can my 11-year-old take it alone?
Yes. Most children this age take it alone, and many like to compare with friends later.
Is the result a diagnosis?
No. It is an estimate of reasoning with picture puzzles, marked preliminary while our norms grow. For decisions about school, talk to the school or a school psychologist.
