There are just as many people with below-average IQ as there are with above-average IQ. Think about it.

I think you meant "median," not average.

Take five values: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 20; what's the average? 6. How many of the original values are below 6, how many above?

Think about it. :)

I know, and I understand the difference between median and average. I think people got the gist of what I meant.
