Isaac Newton died long before IQ tests were invented, so we can’t really put an exact number on his IQ. However, when you look at the huge advances he made in both Physics and mathematics, and the typically high IQ of modern theoretical physicists and mathematicians, we can assume that his IQ is quite high. read more
