Can anyone tell me if there's any truth to this?

j

 

yes very true

 

that LOOKS about right to me.

 

why don't you just read the fine print at the bottom.....

 

But look at mississippi, don't you get something like 90 just for spelling your name right?

 

on an i.q. test?

nah.... actually 80 to 90 is average i.q.

im surprized MS even came in there... i was thinking that state's average would be closer to 65.

 

I read the thing and I geuss it's not official so it could be like that. It seems very possible.

 

those numbers are base on averages.....which means some of them can not spell their names right.

 

The state with the highest average IQ only got 113? That's pretty bad...

 

I really don't trust that list, I really don't believe there is almost a 30 point difference between the IQ of my state and Mississippi, yes we have better schools, but schools alone are not gonna make 30 points average like that.

 

poop

 

Schools have nothing to do with I.Q.- that is inborn. CT is a very wealthy state...meaning people that are naturally more intelligent prolly flock there for a few different reasons...

however, people that are less intelligent in a state like MS, have less resources to get out of that state....

now before anyone from the south flips out or anything, im not calling everyone from MS less intelligent or ignorant or anything.... an average is just that. an average.

 

adjusted for the fact that the IQ’s of these test takers are about 10 points above average

104 IQ New Hampshire

103 IQ Oregon, Massachusetts, Wisconsin

102 IQ Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Vermont, Washington

101 IQ Alaska, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Utah, Wyoming

100 IQ Arizona, California, Idaho, Maine, Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia

99 IQ Delaware, Hawaii, Indiana

98 IQ Florida, Arkansas

97 IQ Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas

96 IQ New Mexico

95 IQ District of Columbia

94 IQ Mississippi, South Carolina

 

are there really only 50 states?

oh god tell me i know the answer to that

 

I.Q. measures an individual's ability to adapt to a changing environment. it is not the only measure of awareness though.

there is much more to awareness than I.Q.

some people adapt an environment to their ability.

in any event, no person with any real awareness could vote for bush for even the most selfish reasons. it is that wrong!

 

that was great. thanks for sharing juggs

 

California =101 ? That's cumulative for the whole state, right?

 

Haha people are retarded, my iq is around 150, I own them all.

 

It's an avarage you ass and as I just found out it's not official
