▶Introduction

KIT (Kim's Intelligence Test) is an experimental high range IQ test created by Prof. YoungHoon Kim. The standard IQ tests such as Stanford–Binet and Wechsler measure up to IQ 160 (SD15), but KIT High Range IQ Test aims to measure up to at or above IQ 190 (SD15) theoretically. 

▶High Range IQ Test

High-range IQ tests were developed experimentally to measure IQ in the very high range. The more common official IQ tests, such as the Wechsler and Stanford-Binet, are limited in that they measure adult IQ only to approximately IQ 160 (SD 15). Theoretically, however, human intelligence can be calculated statistically up to roughly IQ 195 (SD 15) and high range IQ tests have been developed as a result of this statistical reason. The method of standardization for these high-range IQ tests can be said to have a strong experimental tendency, because obtaining sufficient data is difficult due to the rarity of the measurement range. Scores based on the preliminary norm are also subject to similar skepticism. Even so, it is difficult to deny the reliability and validity of high-range IQ tests, given that the people who perform well on them also perform well on the official IQ tests.
