Albert Einstein (IQ = 160-180) was a German mathematician and physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity. In 1921, he won the Nobel Prize for physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. His work also had a major impact on the development of atomic energy. In his later years, Einstein focused on unified field theory. With his passion for inquiry, Einstein is generally considered the most influential physicist of the 20th century.
Steve Jobs (IQ = 160) According to Jobs, the key to being truly smart isn't deep expertise in one field, but instead the ability to make unexpected connections between fields.
Stephen Hawking (IQ = 160) It's generally true that people with high IQs never want to talk about it unless their hand is forced. When asked in a 2004 interview with The New York Times what his IQ is, Hawking gave an impatient and sarcastic curt reply: "I have no idea. People who boast about their IQ are losers."

IQ Range An IQ score over 140 indicates that you're a genius or nearly a genius, while 120 - 140 is classed as "very superior intelligence". 110 - 119 is "superior intelligence", while 90 - 109 is "normal or average intelligence". IQ 45 is subpar human intelligence. (Chimpanzees range from IQ 65 to 75, Emmanuel Goldstein, MSc Clinical Pathology, University of Birmingham (2007)) IQ ranges beyond test limits exist and their numbers are extrapolated based on facts. Nowadays modern IQ estimates can exceed 140 and move into the 200s and in some rare genetic cases the 300s.
Genius Definition Genius, in psychology, a person of extraordinary intellectual power. Leta Hollingworth, an American psychologist who studied the nature and nurture of genius, proposed an IQ of 180 as the threshold—a level that, at least theoretically, is exhibited by only about one in every two million people. In the more popular sense, as derived from work of the 19th-century English scientist Sir Francis Galton, it designates creative ability of an exceptionally high order as demonstrated by actual achievement.
Distinguishing Genius Genius is distinguished from talent, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Talent refers to a native aptitude for some special kind of work and implies a relatively quick and easy acquisition of a particular skill within a domain (sphere of activity or knowledge). Genius, on the other hand, involves originality, creativity, and the ability to think and work in areas not previously explored—thus giving the world something of value that would not otherwise exist.
Genius Traits One such trait is autonomy, which is needed for working alone and for daring to express novel or divergent points of view. Another example is endurance, which involves an ability to persist, to complete tasks, and to follow through—a characteristic that all true geniuses seem to have.
Many scholars believe that genius is a function of both heredity and environment. The original potential for exceptional achievement may be inherited, but the fruition of this potential depends also, at least to some extent, on opportunity, training, mastery of a domain, capacity to experience flow, autonomy, endurance, and a combination of hereditary and socially influenced personality traits.
Genius by Heredity Galtin, in his Hereditary Genius (1869), put forth the idea that genius, as measured by outstanding accomplishment, tends to run in families.
Identifying Gifted Children Terman found that children of high general intelligence, classified as “gifted” or “potential genius,” are on the average superior to other children in physique and health and in emotional and social adjustment.
