The concept of intelligence is quite complex and what is measured by traditional IQ tests is not the whole story.

Obama's certainly has a good start in supplanting Carter for that honor.

If it were an average score, then his IQ would have come out at around 100. >I score well on IQ tests, but I did poorly on the SATs. How does that >square with his premise? Please try to suppress your urge to respond >with malice. It is possible for people who have no formal education, or simply slept through their school years to do poorly on the SAT despite being smart. However, stupid people do not do well on the SAT. So Bush could be smarter than his scores show, but not dumber.

There's nothing wrong with that data at all. Is Bush's IQ 129 like the conversion chart shows? I don't know, but it's a good bet that it's somewhere between 126 and 132. Again, Bush's IQ is in the superior to very superior range. |
