The 68% “statistic” is a coarse description of any population within one standard deviation of the average (”mean”), assuming that the population follows a “normal” distribution. I thought that George Carlin said it better, “Half of everyone is below average.” (Which need not be true of distributions, only those for which the median equals the mean.)
"Average IQ" is everything between an IQ of 85 to an IQ of 115.
In reality, any IQ above 100 is "above average", which is, by definition, half of the population.
I am most grateful for 2 things:
1.I graduatedd high school 4 years before that sub commander/peanut farmer came up with his vision of a federal department of education, thereby ruining the syystem for decades.
2. My I.Q. rating was obtained through the battery of military accuity tests upon enlisting in the U.S. Air Force, and happily ‘above averrage’, also with two ‘70’ and two ‘80’ ratings..
I high school I learned boolean logic, existentialism, chemistry, biology, American history. In grade school I learned to diagram a sentence, write essays, do research.
Catholic education 11 of 12 years.
Because those are not professions that require actual output like a product
Democrats did this about 50 yrs ago when they took over the schools!

We need a common sense IQ.
