I later taught in a college in which I was provided the IQs of all the students. Not surprisingly their grades tracked fairly close to their IQ scores.

There was a reason why students took the SAT and colleges used to have minimum scores for acceptance.

I taught college as a TA in the 70’s.

I was shocked how many students couldn’t perform long division. Calculators weren’t ubiquitous back then.

And I remember we were doing an “experiment” where you plant peas in kitty litter. A girl came up to me with peas in one hand and the litter in the other. She was asking which ones were the peas.
