>Studies of PhD holders put their IQs somewhere near 125
I didn't say PhD holders, because any retard can sign up for a PhD at some shit school

>Most Nobel prize winners have never taken an iq test and published it, iq scores you hear of them are almost always "estimated"
Anne Roe studied 64 of the best scientists in the US in 1952 (20 biologists, 22 physicists and 22 social scientists), including Nobel Prize winners. Her findings regarding global IQ can be summarized as shown in the table I attached.

>As pointed out by other people, twins were raised in environments but they did not substantially differ because of the situation.
Twins raised apart have an IQ correlation of 0.78, unrelated siblings raised together have an iq correlation of around 0.05 (I'll go look for the exact numbers). The only way you could explain that without iq being almost 100% genetic is if the experiences in the womb have a very high impact. That is possible, and can't be ruled out (yet).
