You must be thinking of Flagpole and Rojo.
Actually Wolfgang Ketterle and Malcolm Gladwell. And I wouldn't believe Gladwell. I would just refrain from laughing out of respect.
IQ is a statistical concept. On an invidual level the result can be very different on different tests.

IQ:113
PR's: 13:41 5K, 8:01 3K; 3:44 1500m (couldn't run there that right now)
Salary- 50K now (resident), 320K already offered for next years attending position (working around half the year)
I'm guessing I'm on the lower end for IQ (even though by definition its around the 80th percentile) and way on the high end for PR's and $$. I attribute the huge discrepancy in IQ/talent to being brought up with hard working parents who've always supported everything I do. If I was born under different circumstances things would have been very different.
IQ: Most likely about 125 according to SAT/ACT grades which are not bad surrogates for IQ tests. Keep in mind guys that 15 is the standard deviation for most IQ barometers; 145 would put you at 99.5 percentile.
PR: 16:4x 5k, slow other races.
Salary: -38,000 as fourth year med student. About 50k as a resident and most likely 270,000 as an attending.
There are about 15 people with an iq of 180 or more in the US.

99.87th percentile. If you are using the Wechsler scale. If you are using the Stanford-Binet, standard deviation is 16.
