Those score don’t seem right to me.

They all seem too low.

Those are the scores for all SAT test takers with their hoped-for majors. That includes those who will never go on to, let alone graduate from college—and they’ve not yet had a chance to flunk out of their desired major.

It would take a far higher IQ to be a good engineer.

If those SAT scores are accurate, I would guess that those scores reflect ability, not inherent IQ. The US, despite spending more per student than many countries put together, has some of the poorest scores in the Western Hemisphere, to which low score are going to reflect a poor education, not a low IQ.

You cannot gather IQ scores from an SAT test.

End of argument.

average US IQ testing is around 100...and now that almost everyone goes to college...it looks fair enough though i would have expected certain fields to be higher as well

IQs are all over the board:

Non Israeli Jews are 110-115...Israeli Jews are 15 points on average less...European culture has it's fine points...or had

East Asians..those we used to call Mongoliod race are 100-106

Caucasians as a rule....100-105 average...though Austrians and Swedes are on average 10-15 points higher than Croat mean...and so forth

Hispanics vary from 100 in Argentina and Chile to 87 in Mexico which indicates to me a racial component

Black Americans average 85...quite above their motherland kin

Tropical Africans span from 60 to 80

Northern Africans...mostly Arabs and hybrids thereof average low 80s

Below 70 is considered retardation with degrees that once used archaic yet arguably definitive terms such as moron, imbecile and idiot in that order to describe that sad bottom depth

We today discount all this...and that bears consequence.

It bears consequence in the aggregate. Individuals given the chance can be the exception but that is NEVER EVER the outcome in general..a fact we ignore and have ignored for decades now.

And the proof is in the pudding...just look around you (metaphorically)
