Many claims have been made that people with a higher IQ than normal are logically smarter than others. I'm not totally against IQ tests but your score doesn't limit what you do. I mean i know some people with an IQ of 160 (so they claim) but they don't seem any more 'evolutionized' than the rest of us average 140s. Most of of us don't even have the patience to even solve one of those so called IQ tests seriously.
One does not simply put forward a baseless opinion. I have taken a number of factors from reality and fiction and that is why i undermine the very word IQ. Lets look at some famous people. Einstein-the total genius who put forward a lot of theories in physics especially relativity but in grade school he was failing yet some scientists claim he had an IQ of 160. This isn't consistent with his barely passing grades at school so there are two ways to look at it:
Either the scientists were right and his IQ suddenly increased when his brain should've stopped growing or the scientists are incorrect and Einstein simply took an interest on how things work therefore he spent a lot of time working dedicatedly on physics as Nikola Tesla did before his lab was burnt down by one of his ex-co-workers but thats beside the point. Back to Einstein, so dedication, a different perspective and probability being on your side are all your buddies to fame.
Now lets look at someone we all know in the theatre: Tom Hanks well not him but Forrest Gump. He's a fictitious character but theres a lot of truth weaved into his fictitious life. Firstly, he has a low I Q so he was 'slower' than other kids his age mentally which should be sound with the IQ smarter claim. Surprisingly his low IQ or should i say the fact that he never lets someone tell him he can't do something mades him very and i mean very successful not only financially but also in friendship and love.
Thats why i deem IQ tests as baseless. You might not agree with me seeing the limited amount of proof i used to back my opinion but look around you: you'll toss aside IQ like it never existed once you compare your boss to yourself or better yet a barber. Just draw the comparisons and you won't need my word for it. No can put a number on Inteligence.
