/r/ing the chart that shows a relationship between IQ and choice of major. Can anyone help me out?

Pic unrelated.

Thank you sir.

Not sure if i do either. Mostly need the chart for trolling purposes though, so it's a nonissue in this case.

There are plenty. It is based on GRE scores, a fair proxy for IQ (correlation ~0.7).

I'm frankly surprised to see materials engineers so high up there.
>>6165322
Standardized tests are inherently more objective and indicative of an individual's knowledge than grades, which can vary widely from school to school or even instructor to instructor.

I, for one, know I've passed plenty of classes without actually learning shit from them.

Another chem eng bro here. I majored with only taking first year basic maths and been winging it ever since 'cos I fucking hate maths XD. I'm hot shit when it comes to chemistry, materials and CAD though, so my boss calls me his 'chemical and materials expert'.
