That is precisely what you have done in multiple ways.

This is the stupid thing about IQ, I can train a starving nigger in pattern recognition and working memory so that he can score 150+ on a test. Allowing him to join Mensa, Be considered a "genius" and brag about it on /sci/.

Yes, but nearly everyone who brags about their score on one of the few decent online IQ tests has also blitzed themselves out on recognizing common test patterns, so you aren't any worse than anyone else on here.

Yes and no, I had a brain injury and did hours of puzzles and testing every day to work on my cognition for years. It definitely helps but you are just maximizing your potential essentially. My doctor said that once my testing results were consistent that I could stop doing mental exercises.

I do believe IQ testing has a large blind spot because of this, many people go in blind and probably are not at their max potential for the kind of testing. While someone who trough indirect or abstract training they are unaware of helps them probably will do well, people who specifically train for them will be better prepared for them.

Yeah I've wondered the same. Once you realize that Raven's Matrices are mostly about a particular operation happening in every row/column or some particular element being represented in every row/column it seems you're already at an advantage.

What have you always sucked in school? Do you think that presenting your opinion to others is dangerous to you and it makes your life better to agree with anything anybody has to say?

>> No.10954097

>>10953716
Most of the time sucking at school just means you're not interested in the topics and thus not putting in the effort.

I coasted through high school and my freshman and sophomore years of Uni on raw talent, but precisely because of that my grades were always average to bad. Only when I discovered a motivator (switching from an Engi degree to a Pure & Applied Physics program) did I start caring enough to put in the effort and my grades improved as a result.

Everyone can make it. Even people we consider stupid. All it takes is dedication, perseverance, and constant study. You can overcome any academic hurdle with enough practice, and you can learn any topic with constant (and proper) study.

I scored 125 in the morning after getting 3 hours of sleep at the age of 16.
I brag about it a few times a year. I think i earned this.
