I haven't had my IQ tested in so long. But back in the 1970s, via the Stanford Binet and the Wechsler (WISC) I qualified for the gifted education program (MGM- Mentally gifted minors) with scores of 142 and 144 respectively. I did not take the SAT as my family was poor and it was certain I wouldn't attend college, or at least, not a four year university. As it turned out, I did finish with my BA degree (financial aid and working odd jobs).

Anyway, I have already had my genotype (and other genetic information determined) via saliva sample sent to labs at 23andme.com, and I have the AA genotype. According to articles on 23andme.com, this genotype is prevalent among those with higher I.Q.s . It will be interesting to see if your findings corroborate these findings.
