Are the genes for iq dominant? I consider myself above average, but my mother is a Mensan while my father is a brainlet. Am I destined for mediocrity? Greatness? Can they somehow cancel out?

The effort you put forth is dominant. If you work your ass off and study, you will do just fine. If you expect your genes to work for you, you will fail. Dumb frog.

I performed extremely well academically in hs and I do fairly well in college. Granted they aren't the same but they are correlated.

/pol/ here. Our research indicates, that if you were hypothetically to breed a 100 IQ specimen with an 80 IQ specimen, the offspring would be expected around 90 IQ.

Orbulon thinks it's an insecurity.
