that's because A), different tests breed different results
and B), the IQ is not static, but dynamic, your IQ depends greatly on your mood amongst other things.

do i even NEED to say duh? they are not meant to be THAT accurate, they're meant to be an INDICATION of your intelligence, seeing as all 3 results of you put you in the above average -> high above average department, that's where you are.

that's not true. the top 1% of the population (in your country or the world) would require you to have a much higher IQ score than that, unless these were some weird non-standard tests. these results would've put you in the top 10-15% or so.
