About Society

The HighPotentialsSociety was founded in 2002 by Dr. Max Tiefenbacher. The central idea was creating a forum for intellectually highly talented people. The only entrance criterion is an intelligence quotient (IQ) which corresponds to a percentile of at least 98. This corresponds to an IQ of at least 130 at a scale with a mean average value of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
