What does high IQ mean anyway?

I hear people say that high IQ doesn’t mean you are automatically good at something, but what does it mean then, in terms of physical properties of the brain? And how do they translate to one’s abilities?

The most common IQ test measures perceptual reasoning, working memory, processing speed, and verbal comprehension. It translates well to an ability to learn. It can show what you **may** be better at. For example, if your working memory is impaired doing a job like translation could be harder. Doesn’t mean impossible, just harder! (I give these tests, I do clinical psych!)
