People with lower IQ will struggle with algebra.
Actually, nothing further from truth.
As a person who has had opportunity to observe psychological tests on hundreds of people, significantly higher accomplishment of/ aptitude for either math or verbal is present. But rarely both.
There is no correlation of Math aptitude to I.Q.
The good Lord spreads out in telling gifts his way.
Nothing could be further from the truth? Hyperbole isn’t an argument against what I wrote. Granted, motivation and instruction technique can allow lower IQ individuals to succeed at many things, just as higher IQ folks who don’t apply themselves to something can fail to excel.
I wasn’t arguing universal superiority based on higher IQ, but I stand by what I said that those with lower IQ will struggle with Algebra. You’ve presented no argument to the contrary.
I wasn’t arguing correlation of higher IQ with algebra prowess anyway, but asserted rather that low IQ is an impediment to success in algebra.
