How to Cultivate “EQ” EQ Plays a Role in Personal Success;; EQ Abbreviation for “emotional quotient”, using emotion as a measure of human intelligence.

Scores between 90 and 110 are considered average – so a person scoring 95 is simply average, not below-average. For children scoring below 80 special schooling is encouraged, children above 125 are “highly gifted”.
