There is nothing magical about 100 IQ. The brain is much more complicated and elastic than that. IQ is primarily a left brain activity. But studies have shown people with strong right brains do just as well in school, but do not show up on the Stanford beniot.

Last I looked.

I think you can easily go one stadard deviation below the mean 50+34 for 84% of population normal and another 10% could make it through grit. So 90 to 95% could get through college and I would considere normal territory where intellectual development is the main thing. And in the rest intellectual work is even more important.

It is just like exercising.

Certan activites take certain intellectual skills. But a person can be a genius and not get through a basic statistics class
