“IQ measurement is crap. Absolutely not predictor of success in life.”
I’d like to know the scientific basis for that statement Avoiding the pitfall of racial differences for a moment, examine the performance of Jews who have about a 10 point advantage in IQ above average whites(100). There is no doubt their collective performance in all fields including science, medicine and law far exceeds there very low percentage of the population. The same is true of East Asians.
To adequately complete a college degree one needs at least an IQ of 85; some say 100. It is pointless to encourage a college education for everyone. The average IQ of African Americans is 85.
What do you do for a living? Are you a teacher? Or a psychiatrist? Or a psychologist?
Elementary Ed only requires a pulse and a loan/grant.
It’s actually the best predictor of success that psychologists have. Not perfect, of course, and as noted not directly what it is intended to convey.
