How would something like 'IQ' do in my application?

A few quick notes:

IQ tells you one thing. You’re smart. But can you measure this kind of thing to the number? No. Smart people will score well, not so smart people will not. But it’s not like 148 means anything different from 145, or 140 for that matter.

Secondly, Mensa makes it difficult to score high, but once you near the cutoff, it becomes significantly easier to have a higher score, because, of course, they want more membership.
