Why do brainlets think the current ACT and SAT are reflections of IQ, when they are just typical study type tests

All tests are IQ tests to some extent or another.
what is their correlation?

>caring about the SAT and ACT
Underage B&. Oddly enough, the reading comprehension sections are more reliant on reasoning than the mathematics sections. The math sections are easily gamed and reliant on memorization of concepts and formulas.

>Now, fifteen years after that work, researchers have confirmed the principal finding, yielding correlations between intelligence and the SAT of roughly 0.5 to 0.9, depending upon sample and the way in which intelligence is defined

the "brainlets", as you put it, are right.

The ACT and SAT are not tests of IQ and aren't considered to be. The ACT and SAT are strictly assessments of students work ethic, how willing any particular student is to prepare and study for an arbitrary examination. The ACT and SAT are designed to be high-stress tests that strictly determine how open the student is to taking it in the ass and dedicate all their time to learning irrelevant information.

0.5 is like a moderate correlation, 0.9 would be very tightly correlated.

It's less than .5 in the most recent version of the test.

Could someone help me understand this. I got perfect score in math section without studying. Like sat math is to diagnose retardation. That's how easy it was. But on the English part did abysmally. I got 570 out of the 800. What does this mean?

This is a legitimately interesting question. And though I suspect you have a taste for the sublimely silly, as most men I've known whose balance is similarly askew but not sickening in any lack, I have recently lost the will to shitpost in the manner, and can only recommend research elsewhere for the same reason.

IQ correlates with standardized testing, following procedures and being reliable cog. IQ is not equal to intelligence, its a very specific sort of test but functionally equivalent to SAT or just any math test or Facebook crystal crush score.
