Wow you wrote a lot of nonsense. "IQ" tests are BS. The tests were sold to companies in the 50s to address the changing employment needs (more computing / logical / spatial awareness, than previous posts) and science - proper science - has moved on way past the concept of IQ. There are many different branches of IQ that one single test doesn't address.

    Wow you wrote a lot of nonsense.

    I'm reading what you're writing as saying IQ tests should not be taken seriously but it also sounds like you're disagreeing with me for writing that I think IQ tests are a garbage concept that someone would be inclined to buy into if they're overly insecure and want a shortcut to claim that they're "smart". What did I write that you actually disagree with?

    I was replying to a comment wondering how people can take them seriously and I was trying to imagine what could lead a person to entirely avoid looking at the very obvious reasons why iq tests should not be treated seriously. It feels like you're condescending to me while holding the same opinion I have.
