What does IQ have to do with being "smart" or "stupid." At one time the IQ
test could be relied upon to predict success in classical education
(three-rs-history-latin, etc.). I doubt that it does THAT so well any more.
Education has changed and involved elements not sampled in the IQ test. The IQ
test is just a "job sample" kind of test composed of items related to OLD
FASHIONED school. There are plenty of average or low average people who are
smarter than any of us.
