IQ tests start becoming unreliable after three standard deviations or so, due to the insignificant pool of people to standardise the tests much above that. While there are high-IQ societies which have higher requirements than Triple Nine and ISPE (3 SD), they are questioned due to the instability of scoring above 3SD.

Lots of people get admitted to MIT. Not a sign of exceptional intelligence. (While the exceptionally intelligent probably have a better chance, so do the exceptionally wealthy.)

IQ tests tell us nothing about morality, compassion, creativity, or human understanding. They are a measure of certain technical skills and memory.
