If that's true my IQ score is necessarily updated every time other takers take the test, because it necessarily depends on the current distribution right now. In reality such update happens very rarely and most IQ tests would give you a confidence interval instead, which is based on the distribution constructed via the past validations. There is no guarantee that those scores are indeed normal.
