Just a friendly reminder that IQ is BS.
A great tool for making broad diagnostics with regard to childhood-to-adult brain development. Also useful for identifying disabilities and neurodivergence.
But useless as a means of stack ranking already demonstrably intelligent people or sifting for "genius" intelligence in a pool with variation in education and experience. Getting a "good IQ score" is like bragging about acing your "Do you have Alzheimers?" cognitive exam. "Oh! He can draw clocks twice as fast as any of his peers! Incredible!"
You need to have low IQ to believe IQ is real.
