Nah! This IQ thing can't be right. The school system and the meritocratic system is slanted towards a small fraction.

ASSESSING THE ASHKENAZIC IQ
lagriffedulion.f2s.com

See why: A big fraction of the teachers are of some extraction, the most bright students comes from the same extraction.

Then the Supreme Court draws its members that studied on those universities Ivy League Universities and there you are.

Look, if I the teachers come from that small fraction, to be successful in entering these schools with the highest grades, students have to understand the mindset of that fraction that composes the faculty. The best students are the ones who understood that. Who better to get a better and deepr understanding of the mindset of that fraction (that have developed the tests) than the young members of that said fraction.

You get perpetuation here...

There's no need to have high IQ. What's necessary it is to see what is behind any claim.

(I haven't measure mine, but I guess is 54 when I am awake and goes up to 70 when I go sleep).
