There is no such thing as an intelligence quotient test, the premise is flawed. They are logic tests, and if you practice logic tests you will get a higher score, despite not being more intelligent than previous you that didn’t practice those tests.
This is what people dont get. Of course there is a limit how much you can improve in a short time (due to limits of what learned before), but i bet that if focusing on improving skills related to these tests over a very long time pepple could improve even more. But why let a pointless test dictate what you do with your life or what skills to improve. Let slop solve it!
It’s the same thing with the test to get into law school, they’ve to take a bunch of logic tests, I perused one briefly and it was basically a much bigger version of the Original IQ test I took online a long time ago. People that take the law school test practice obsessively to pass it.
On the original IQ test, one question was a jumble, a game that is easier if you do them regularly, just as a sudoku is. The entire premise is flawed in other areas as well, there are different types of intelligence, even if these tests did measure it accurately, which they don’t.
