IQ represents a type of intelligence, but it isn't really useful as a true barometer of how intelligent someone is.

[Squibbs]

Sure.

A PhD in dipshit.

 

[doubleover]

Isn't 70 the minimum IQ a person needs to feed themselves?

No cherylashi, what you say is wrong. IQ tests are a true indicator of intelligence and the only one. You are probably referring to those who are idiot savants. Such people have extremely low IQs but are gifted in a particular area, usually music or mathematics

Did you just retake the test and it came out lower?

 

[Loring2]

no, you are wrong.

nope tesla... there is no other way to determine IQ than the tests. You may be arguing that intelligence is something else than what is generally meant but if you do then say so.

It is you who is wrong

There aren't very many people with low IQ's who have successful careers.
