I know people with IQ's in that range, and let me tell you, Dipper is clearly smarter than them. As others pointed out, "The Time Traveler's Pig" shows him doing some extremely complex equations. From what I can tell, he's working with quantum mechanics and relativity, which requires a firm understanding of high-level calculus. If he can do that at age 12, his IQ would be at least in the 160's--far higher than the genius minimum of 140.
