Statistically, I am unique enough to be in the top 0.1%.

Top 25 medical school = hardest accomplishment out of undergrad. Need a 3.8 at least with an MCAT of at least 34.

For those of you that have great grades please realize that most people who apply have 3.8+ and they do not get in due to the MCAT's difficulty.

It is the hardest standardized test devised. Do not kid yourself. The only thing that stands in the way of anyone becoming a physician is not med school or residency or debt, it is the MCAT. Nothing is sought after more academically and is more competitive that med school acceptance. AAMC numbers don't lie.

To get a 34+ puts you at the Top 0.1% of people because it is inherently not based on knowledge (the knowledge needed to take the test is basic bio/phys/chem/orgo which is literally nothing) People make all A's and will still make a 22 of their MCAT.

Stanford-Binet = 155 at age 8

With all that said I do not believe in intelligence. I believe I can take anyone with an IQ of 100 (no prior mental deficit due to pathology) and raise them up to an IQ of 145+. How? Because, you have all fallen into a trap believing that intelligence is stagnant.

I can solve physics problems that others can't with hours of time and an open book. How? I am not smarter, I am more focused in my thinking. I can train them to be sharp like this. We are born with a certain level of intelligence and it gets molded by our environment but it is not stagnant. It can be molded further using discipline, work and a lot of mental focus.

There are anomalies sure, but those anomalies don't make it across the finish line in many success stories. Know why? Rain man has bigger fish to fry in his life than using his mental prowess to solve theoretical physics problems. It is still a pathology these anomalies even if you see great benefit, it will come at a price. Einstein and Hawking were not these anomalies you speak of. They even claim that their talent was something achievable by mortals given enough time. There is a great Einstein quote to sum it up, Newton had one too.

>> No.2558476

>>2558451
you cannot train a brain to be more inherently intelligent, you can train it to complete more an more complex mathematical and physics based equations, anything to do with questions relating to a field

you cannot actually train a brain to score higher on a random intelligence test with mental rotation, logic, rationality etc like the SB scale

if you actually had the 155 you claim and actually did study at medical school and remember anything from your neuro units youd know this

you cannot take someone with an IQ of 100 and train them to 145+, it is impossible, you may get it to 105 or even 110 at the absolute highest but not to 145+

145+ is inherent intelligence, born there, not trained there, it is there regardless of lifestyle and upbringing, the inherent capacity to do the tests on scales such as the SB5 will always be there, whether they are a peasant farmer or a painter or a business exec

the beauty of having that sort of intelligence is i can spot BS on the forums when i see it

>> No.2558475

>>2558465
We can infer that biology must play a huge role in the aggregate skills we refer to as "intelligence" in casual conversation by the fact that humans can do so many mental tasks that non-human animals cannot.

From here, we can conclude that some traits will lead to more abilities in some areas vs others (some people just can't grasp some concepts or get good at performing certain tasks, regardless of training), and that because of the nature of genetics, we should see a bell curve appearing for these abilities, both individual and aggregate, amongst the population.

Surprise surprise, that's what IQ tests show, as well as associated measures of Gardner's multiple intelligences and so on. Saying "it's all training, you just have to think right" isn't valid. Assuming you aren't just trolling / making shit up and you are really super intelligent, without your genes you would not be where you are. Genes control your intellectual potential, and the environment you are raised in + education controls how much of that potential you will reach.

>> No.2558481

>>2558458

I suppose you have me there, I haven't take the physics GRE. I have taken grad level physics and done quite well during my last year in my biophysics major.
Ultimately I cannot claim the fact that the MCAT is the hardest without taking all other tests, but you have not taken the MCAT so we are at an impasse.

I would then cite that a (very) few of my classmates have their PhD in physics from top institutions. They have not out right said that the MCAT is harder than the physics GRE but they have said the MCAT was the hardest test they have even taken. This could mean a lot of things and I still cannot claim to know the truth about all tests and their difficulties. I am merely speculating based on my limited experiences.

Maybe you are right.

It is just a hard pill to sallow for me I guess. The idea that not everyone can do certain things given the drive.

Still, biologically we have these mental capacities over other species. I would find it more likely that another species of animal would have mental abilities over us before I believe that one of our own, a human, can be at such a high level. A level the rest of us can't achieve, almost makes me think if they were still part of our species it shouldn't be possible. But just because I wish it doesn't make it true, i guess.

Intelligence is inherent, the ability to reach potential is irrelevant to what someones innate intelligence actually is

It doesn't matter if someone has 3 degrees, they can still have an IQ of 98 and they've reached a higher potential than someone with and IQ of 130 and no degree.

There was an Irish mathematician who had no texts to go off but created a theorem that baffled all mathematicians for centuries, it was only proved just recently in the late 90's

The man had no formal education, actually no education at all, and created theorems that we could not prove for centuries and even then, we needed supercomputers to assist us.

The ability to reach potential does not rely on anything

Let me elaborate. The boxes are easy also all answers have the correct pattern. But it is important to know this to figure out the order of the question. It is going left to right then don a row like reading a comic.

Now the dots, there are always 2 dots with 1 dot alays 1 box away from the other. They more in unison left to right by one and the down a row just like reading the question. Only when they encounter a black box they change color when they leave it.

The black boxes clearly are moving across separated by white. The two circles are also moving across to the right and are superimposed on the black boxes.

I think what throws people off is the order in which the problem is given. It is in a 3x3 pattern of boxes and each box has 3x3 patterns within them. If they were all lined up horizontally it would be completely obvious.
