It's not exactly about being overly smart, but what you can do with your skills - If you put the most of you in everything you do, you can make a difference and succeed. I think the OP should look at the bright side and be happy he isn't mentally retarded - He is normal and healthy, which is nice.
Yes, precisely. 100 is the average (I think even by definition) and only 30% of the population have more than 108, so that's something.
But again, IQ scores don't mean too much besides measuring your ability to take IQ tests.

Really, a college that requires you to take IQ tests? So do they have a minimum requirement, or is that just something they take into consideration when reviewing applicants?
