String theorists should be < 75. The only reason they shouldn't be lower than that is because they've somehow successfully scammed everyone into funding them.

Struggling with math and pushing through anyway is one thing. Being a scientist and needing a calculator to get 20% of 100 is straight up embarrassing, and probably not even true. Just empty virtue signaling.

>Does this mean doing math can increase IQ?

Probably not:

>As essayist and trader Nassim Taleb resolved to do something about the stubborn extra pounds he’d been carrying, he contemplated taking up various sports. However, joggers seemed scrawny and unhappy, and bodybuilders looked broad and stupid, and cyclists? Oh, so bottom-heavy! Swimmers, though, appealed to him with their well-built, streamlined bodies. He decided to sing up at his local swimming pool and to train hard twice a week.


>A short while later, he realized that he had succumbed to an illusion. Professional swimmers don’t have perfect bodies because they train extensively. Rather, they are good swimmers because of their physiques. How their bodies are designed is a factor for selection and not the result of their activities. Similarly, female models advertise cosmetics and, thus, many female consumers believe that these products make you beautiful. But it is not the cosmetics that make these women model-like. Quite simply, the models are born attractive, and only for this reason are they candidates for cosmetics advertising. As with the swimmers’ bodies, beauty is a factor for selection and not the result.

Because the IQ curve is defined as such. It doesnt literally mean that theres an equal number of smart and dumb people in balancing numbers. Whole populations are dumb because they were all exposed to lead or untested drugs as kids or has too many 41 degree fevers.
The IQ score tests your percentile on the test. Average, top 1%, bottom 1%, bottom 10%, top 10%, and so on. Its symmetrical.
