I’ll pass.

Murray’s obsession notwithstanding, all I.Q. tests show is how good you are at taking tests.

Oh, and by the way, I’m GREAT at taking tests.

I'm not sure that that's entirely true.I wonder how the IQ test score of the "typical" MIT grad compares to that of the "typical" resident of Nuevo Loreado.

IQ and ‘test-taking’ is correlative and predictive of all sorts of socioeconomic outcomes.

Yes, that is difficult and often impolite to acknowledge in polite company, but we shouldn’t as a party or a nation censor academic or considered discussion thereof.

Your statement is ignorant and possibly stupid. But then you probably know that. Or maybe you don't.
