Also I thought that the average IQ was 100 by definition so what does it even mean by "IQ scores steadily climbed" ...? Edit: Wikipedia article on the Flynn effect clarifies: "When the new test subjects take the older tests, in almost every case their average scores are significantly above 100." though, so ok I guess?

The score is tied to your age and is relative to the whole population of that age, IIRC. It’s been a long time since I took the paid test. So today’s 100 is, say, 130 fifty years ago. I think there were 4 age groups.
