IQ does not measure intelligence, it measures different fields of intellect, mostly about logic, language comprehension and memory. It doesn't measure intelligence per se, but if you have a low score <70, you can be sure your life is going to be impacted negatively in some way, either because you don't understand other people, you don't understand the world or you cannot chain together complex logical chains.
