I score around 115 online IQ tests, am I really good enough for STEM? I have the willingness to learn though

That depends on the color of your ass

IDK seemed legit though with all the patterns and shit

You are good enough for biology, computer science, and engineering

yeah no...

If your IQ is really 115, yes

the fact that you're trying to base your decision on whether to do STEM on free internet IQ tests tells me you probably shouldn't

Disregard; either pony up for an actual IQ test or don't use it make this decision.

As I see it, IQ in most cases gives you a rough estimate of how much effort you'll have to put into learning and maybe how quickly you'll progress.

Let's assume your IQ actually is 115. You can still be successful in STEM fields, but you will probably have to put more effort into your education and it might take you a bit longer. People with an IQ of 100 can still be successful, but it will probably take them even longer and they'll have to work harder for it. In contrast, someone with an IQ of 130 will probably be able to put in less effort and will advance faster.

This is admittedly a bit of an oversimplification and may not be accurate in all cases. If, for example, you have an IQ of 140 but you get three hours of sleep a night and have severe depression, you're probably going to come up short compared to almost everyone else.

Tl ; Dr - If you're willing to put in more time and effort, you will probably be okay.

No, not really, cigany.

Depends on the field. 110 is mean CS graduate IQ.
