IQ Tests are culturally biased

the IQ tests were designed to quantify something that is unquantifiable as Intellegence. The test were made in a time where the fad was to legitimize fields like sociology, so they can be on the same level as physics, chemistry, and math. The fact that it statisticall reaffirmed the Anglo-Saxon dominance over Black was just a nice bonus. When they first came out it was formulated that the there would always be a gap of 10 points between Blacks and Whites. It's kinda comparible to how the Nazi's deemed Jews as scientifically inferior. How's that for circular conversation?

And also IQ means nothing about anything. You don't need to be a super genius to get a PhD, just unending effort, and desire to further your field of specialty. It doesn't matter if you solve the 7 toughest math problems in the world, you won't get a dime of recognition and money unless you have it published and have already gained the respect of the Math community. Putting your IQ score on the bottom of the page isn't a step in that direction.

Before Pharaoh gives me a schpeel about how I'm always the personification of a buttwank, I'm gonna say my beef is with IQ tests and other stupid crap like that being used as some sort of rhetorical proof. I don't care about his assumption of Biological determinism as universal law, because I already know you're not gonna see it any other way ever. IQ tests are crap because they don't mean anything in terms of real life, anyone who is seriously looking at graduate school or any Scholarly endeavor knows that pure intelligence won't further a field of study it's how its applied. And when it is applied no one is gonna care what your IQ, MCAT, LSAT, ACT, or high school GPA is, you're already considered smart.
