17. I flunked almost all the math in early high school testing,
so I only got 116. My teacher said it would have been closer to 200 if I wasn't so bad at math.
Still, being able to retain info and test well isn't always an indicator of someone who is truly smart. High IQ is strangled by right wing thought.
From the quarterly DU IQ thread.A DUmp poster actually said, without irony, that their IQ would be closer to 200 if she "wasn't so bad at math."
Let me be gentle, morons. An IQ test isn't a standardized test. It doesn't contain math problems, and it isn't an "exam," per se. One cannot study for a proper IQ test. An IQ test, a proper one, is meant to be a test of native intelligence. Not a test for which one has prepared.
In any case, this asshole claims that she would be
one of the ten or so most intelligent persons ever known in the history of the world, were she
not so bad at math.Think that over. Were she better at math, she believes, her IQ would be among the highest ever recorded. I am dying - simply DYING - to learn what specific math problems caused her to lose those elusive 84 IQ points. Because I am certain she would say something like "algebra." Not Group Representation Theory. Not Local Cohomology. Not Diophantine Equations. No; not a topic in advanced algebra accessible to the ultra-intelligent. I am certain that she would say, 'oh, y = mx +b. That sort of thing.'
That is why we mock you idiots. Because you are stupid, and you are unaware of its depth.
