There’s a maths mind waiting to shine.✳

MIQ stands for Maths IQ. It’s a score from 0 to 150 that shows how a student performed on a MathsLove test for their grade, based on accuracy and total completion time.

The score combines how many questions were answered correctly with how long the student took to finish.

No. A traditional IQ test is meant to measure general reasoning ability. MIQ is a maths-specific snapshot of how a student did on one 15-question test for their grade. It isn’t a measure of overall intelligence or a fixed label.

Any score upwards of 90 is a good score. A higher score shows stronger accuracy and speed on that day’s test, but the most useful part is the answer review, which shows which topics to practise.

Not at all. One test can be affected by nerves, tiredness, rushing or an unfamiliar topic. A low score points to areas worth practising, and it can change quickly with practice.

Speed shows how comfortable a student is with a concept. Someone who knows a method well usually solves it faster. The timer also keeps the test short and the same for everyone. Accuracy still matters most.

MIQ scores are set for each grade’s test, so a Grade 5 score and a Grade 8 score shouldn’t be compared directly. It’s best to compare scores within the same grade level.

Yes. Questions are drawn from our vast pool of questionnaire and there is good chance that every time you attempt the test, you will see different questions.

Every 4–8 weeks works well for most students. That’s enough time to practise between tests, and it avoids test fatigue.

You’ll see your MIQ score and a review of every question. The Mathslove Guide can suggest what to practise next. Detailed AI-powered insights on strengths and areas to improve are also available.

• Review the questions you missed and understand why before moving on.
• Practise the weakest topics in short daily sessions rather than one long one.
• Work without a calculator, as the test requires.
• Practise showing your steps on paper, which helps both speed and accuracy.

Treat the score as a conversation starter. Ask your child to walk you through a question they got wrong, and use the topic breakdown to choose what to revise.

Teachers can use it as a quick check of where a class stands at the start of a term or before an exam. We have school login available and you may write to us at contact@mathslove.com for more details.
