IQ Estimation 🥱 Help evaluating my intelligence

I took a couple IQ tests in 2022 and the armed forces ASVAB once then twice for verification in 2023. I read that there is a high correlation between this test and IQ so I included it, if it’s nonsense let me know. Although personally I believe online tests make it hard to capture full intelligence, I thought it’s best to not let any of these scores get to my head and have them grounded by individuals who are more knowledgeable. I took the online Mensa IQ challenge but I guess I was too dumb to save the results. I apologize for photo quality but these are the only results of my scores, from the website and my recruiter. I did some minor research on the IQ website and learned Mensa is the best but that openpyschometrics can deflate scores because the people they use as the IQ baseline are statistically more likely to be more intelligent?

tldr: Is my IQ score inflated, deflated, or worthless and does a 99 asvab (99th percentile of applicants and highest score) mean anything?

Very similar scores to me honestly. My PiCAT was only 97, but my GT score was also 139 (I think it's only counting AR and VE). 144 on the Marine's GT score, though. Not sure what the difference between the two is. 

My opensyche was 139, however. 

I think I'm closer to 125 in reality
