The Bible on drugs and drug-dealing

[Nazaroo]

Naz quotes :"I'm a nuclear physicist,with an IQ of 167."

"As a brilliant mathematician and scientist,I have a strong belief that debating you would be like squashing a bug. That's the reason I don't normally engage inferiors,except to educate them."

Hmmm.
That sounds like me alright.
do you have a link?

Are you also going to deny that you go by Joe Layman?



Yet that is indeed your real name is it not? One has to give their actual name on some forums such as S.I.

Joe Layman is not a physicist. I'm sure you can ask him though.

Did S.I. ask for your driver's licence, birth certificate or passport? Last time I checked, no one on the internet was asking photo-id, but you may need it for a credit card.

Wow 167 ....Einstein was only 164 .... I'm impressed :laugh:

You shouldn't be:

IQ tests weren't even closed to standardized before 1939-1965. Who knows what test is being quoted for Einstein:

Also, The average IQ scores for many populations have been rising at an average rate of three points per decade since the early 20th century, a phenomenon called the Flynn effect.

Today almost all IQ tests adhere to the assignment of 15 IQ points to each standard deviation but this has not been the case historically. Approximately 95% of the population have scores within two standard deviations of the mean. If one SD is 15 points, then 95% of the population are within a range of 70 to 130.
..
IQ scores are used in many contexts: as predictors of educational achievement or special needs, by social scientists who study the distribution of IQ scores in populations and the relationships between IQ score and other variables, and as predictors of job performance and income.

The average IQ scores for many populations have been rising at an average rate of three points per decade since the early 20th century, a phenomenon called the Flynn effect. It is disputed whether these changes in scores reflect real changes in intellectual abilities.

Whatever IQ measures, "The Bell Curve" demonstrated that IQ is statistically predictive of financial and social success in modern western society. By "success" I mean the various ways people judge other people, high class vs low class.

It is unfortunate the book mentioned race in one small chapter.

Did I miss it where is the POTUS "BO" in this list?

Is the Flynn Effect also called "grade inflation" similar to the grade inflation of the SAT test?
