JAKARTA - Information Quotient (IQ) is a person's ability to manage, solve problems, learn, understand ideas, think, and plan things. Everyone's IQ is different, but there is an average IQ of the entire society in each country.

The average IQ of the people of each country has been recorded by the World Population Review 2024. Quoted from Josh's Jagran page, on Friday, July 11, 2025, the average global IQ was recorded at 82.12.

Data from the World Population Review 2024 comes from 1,352,763 participants taking similar online IQ tests worldwide. In the results of the study, it has been revealed that 10 countries with the lowest average IQ in the world have been revealed.

The country with the lowest IQ is Nepal, with an average IQ score of 42.99. In general, the low average IQ of the country is influenced by challenges such as poverty, limited access to health services, and the lack of educational opportunities.

Despite its cultural and natural wealth, Nepal still faces major challenges in providing screened education and health services, especially in remote areas.

The country with the second lowest IQ score average is occupied by Liberia, which is located in West Africa. The average IQ in this country is 45.07.

IQ's average humility in Liberia is influenced by civil conflict, extreme poverty, and inadequate infrastructure, thus becoming a factor that has an impact on education and human resource development.
