Read about the variability of IQ tests. There is serious doubt as to the value of attempting to quantify intelligence.

What is more important than IQ is motivation. A person with a high IQ but no motivation is not worth the paper their IQ result is printed on. The person with a lower IQ and lots of motivation will often out-perform the higher IQ but less motivated person.

Please, get off the IQ worry. Instead, worry about how you apply the skills you have. Now, go apply yourself to something productive.
