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?

Don’t believe all the nonsense here. People don’t like IQ tests because nobody wants to admit they’re not the smartest person in the world. There’s plenty of evidence showing that these tests correlate to academic and professional success. Obviously IQ is just one of a dozen traits that are important for success though so nobody should expect it to be the only (or even the largest) predictor of success, but it’s a very real thing.
