IQ test is as about as useful as tits on a bull. It fails to measure the persons ability to make good judgements in real life situations or the ability to override cognitive biases. In other words the ability to rationalize in a non-retarded way. I do pretty well on IQ tests yet my life is a shambles and I couldn't even tell you what day it is without looking at the date on my laptop, yet people I know who come across as intellectual morons seem to have financially/emotionally/romantically stable lives.
I'm pretty good at in the moment stuff and saving my life or others, like in do or die situations, but long term planning.. well.. I don't even know what that is.
