not that anon but mine were uneducated, also bro & sis aren't very bright (MS and HS dropouts, respectively).
Sometimes my parents have some resemblance of intelligence but I guess being uneducated really goes against them when perceiving their wit.
As for my siblings idk if they are actually that dumb or if they just indulged in our family's obvious genetic errors, namely a tendency to depression, getting addicted to things and low frustration threshold. I say this because I almost became a dropout (twice) in my life, luckily both times I reacted quickly and kept progressing... So at this point idk if they failed because they were less lucky than I was or because they are incapable of succeeding.

Have you let the poltards inform your thinking on the subject? It has an influence for sure but it's limited and other factors are huge.

No idea. My dad is fairly smart but my mom had to repeat several grades. I'm pretty lucky I didn't end up lower actually

Almost everybody claiming scores significantly above average and obnoxious children like >>9352803 and >>9352844 are why these threads always suck and should be fucking banned.

How is this related to science in any way?

mother is probably around 130 but she is a woman so sometimes I could swear thet she is braindead with her reasoning.
Father is also extremely hard to guess because shit he says is borderline retarded but if you give him a problem to solve he can come up with really good stuff.

I'm lazy as fuck and almost never study but somehow I always barely pass all exams.

I doubt you would get an average below 110 even on /b/ (with real data) simply because chans are not an attractive place for someone with an IQ of 90 or less.

I guess your butthurt comes from the fact that your measured IQ of 104 makes you a brainlet here.

Low IQ people shouldn't post. I realize it's not their fault, though in a way intelligence is parallel to the self, but they just dilute the board's quality, both by not understanding contextual posts and creating threads about how they should be able to be as intelligent as us.

Well life's not fair, so why not migrate to a place more intellectually fitting for your kind?

Depending on which you are, it's either the line
>I study various subjects like Chemistry, Physics(classical, GR, and im just starting to dip my toes into QM), and Electrical Engineering in my spare time at home. Just for fun.

Or literally your entire post.

Do you honestly believe this? I don't think there's any reason to think that because someone browses 4chan, they're significantly smarter than the average.

I am not sure of my IQ and dont care enough to test (not very important).

I studied EE/physics dual major and now in 3rd year of PhD for EE (photonics) at a top 10 US uni. I think I couldve done better but had no research experience in undergrad (didnt realize I wanted to go to a PhD until it was to late) so had to step up to MS and then PhD.

Not sure of parents either but both my grandpas were in Mensa. Both parents went to college late and my mom doesnt seem too smart to me. Ive always thought my dad was smart even as Ive gotten older. He hasnt really done anything but like precalc for math but is like a sponge for info so I think he could do well in most anything if he wanted. Only person I know personally that I believe could win something like jeopardy with no practice
