List of geniuses (Catharine Cox Miles)

The list of 301 geniuses by intelligence quotient below is an estimation by Catharine Cox Miles published in the "Early Mental Traits of Three Hundred Geniuses (12A-AII table)" during 1926.^[1] Original estimate is based in the historiometric method of Francis Galton and the Stanford Binet Scale I (1916).^[1] The list is corrected and actualized due the Flynn effect during 1916 to 2003 and contains a conversion of Stanford Binet to Weschler based in inverse error function formulas and rarity chart tables (16SD to 15SD)..^[2]^[3]^{[n. 1]}^{[n. 2]}
