The SATs have a ceiling well below four standard deviations above the mean. I’m skeptical that any test is properly calibrated at that level—-even with oversampling it’s very difficult to do properly.

Many IQ older IQ tests doesn't use 15 points per SD, so when you hear people talk about enormous IQ's like 160 it almost surely doesn't use a modern scale.
