  • Today, I'm reacting to another video by Jubilee! In this video, a group of six people were gathered together to determine who was the most intelligent versus the least intelligent. They were asked to rank the group based on their assumptions about each person's intelligence, considering their occupations and educations. Then, the entire group took IQ tests to reveal how accurate their predictions were. You don't want to miss the end of this one.

      ​@@rayzimmermin Same. Depending on the section, I scored 98 overall, with 1 section only a 93, and 2 others (math, science) at 99. We took it in the school gym as an entire class (600 kids taking it all at once). I was the first one done, and waited for something like 15-20 minutes, for someone else to turn theirs in (I didn't want to be first done) and scored the highest in the school.
      Ironically, senior year, I was invited to take psychology, and scored the highest of both Psychology classes on an official IQ test as well.

      While it does require a lot of knowledge it is more focused on adaptability and flexibility thinking so less about book smarts more on completion of the mission or goal I don't know if younger people have a new term but real world experience or street smarts. The books may say to do something one way he would have a simpler and probably better way to accomplish the task. Mainly from hands-on experience and listening to those who actually do the jobs instead of those who teach the jobs.
      When I took the ASVAB got a high score on everything except the automotive part mainly because I never learned what the tools were called never was into automotive more computers and while I was taught to break into and hotwire vehicles by my father but ask me to change a tire and I couldn't do it until I was in my thirties.
      I don't question my intelligence as I started freshman college at 15. But because of mental disabilities which did help in my intelligence my IQ probably sucks.

It's the first kind of people you described who work great with other people and on their own, and the second type of people are the ones creating the medicines that are increasing our lifespans and furthering technological advancements. both are important, and I get it if one type of person can be easier to get along with or why you would even by bothered by the other type, but you can't be biased and discount what they do. those idiots with bad social skills discovered patterns in life and the composition of the universe, so sorry if their not as fun to be around.

      This is somewhat of an uninformed take. When pursuing a graduate degree in STEM (specifically a PhD or Masters of Science), the general rule is that the student doesn't pay for courses. In addition, said student will most likely receive a stipend from their respective institution for teaching a course or performing research under a principal investigator. If an offer is made to a prospective graduate student where it is expected that they pay for courses, then it would typically be seen as a 'soft' rejection.

    As someone with dyslexia, I will NEVER want to even bother with getting a Master's or pHD. Not because I can't get it, but because it's a lot of effort in things that I struggle with and which will have no impact on my future profession.
    I'm a software engineer focused on data and databases and I can do things that many of my colleagues can't do. And none of that would even remotely involve the use of proper grammar or having to write paragraph after paragraph.
    So just from this, I already know that education means very little for someone like me. As the way that education "educates" you, is to make you do a lot of paper and essays. And even on my bachelor's degree they did not really care about what the contents of my documents were, more on whether you can talk like a politician and make a nice flowing paper. And your knowledge would be tested separately through the products I'd make and the presentations I'd make. And it sucked that the majority of your grades were focused on papers.
    And As a software engineer myself, I do have a bit of a bias AGAINST female software engineers. I will treat them properly and the same as anyone else, but from my personal experience, female software engineers where I'm from tend to be given way more leeway and receive way more assistance from others than their male counterpart. If she's a junior or medior, I won't know anything about how good she is. Only until she's a senior or has evolved into a specialization such as architect will I know instantly that she's super smart.
    Tyler and ray seemed the most intelligent to me. Maria is smart, but her adaptability is highly impeded by her stubborn views. Same for Sada.
    So I'd rank Sada at the bottom, Then Sean, Maria, Kaylee, Ray, Tyler. (this is before I saw the IQ results, so I'm glad I was not wrong about Maria)
    Intelligence is indeed about adaptability, and the biggest thing holding people back is bias and stubborn-ness. Confidence and putting yourself first is 100% fine when you understand that you yourself are biased.
    Sean impressed me, his education and profession is not something that impressed me, but he's openminded and I do think he can get things done when needed. The women, they are just stuck in their own bubble. I'm 50/50 between Sean and Maria. Since I'm extremely disappointed in Maria and her bias. She sounds like one of those people that learn something, but are unable to truly develop without being pushed by others. her skill is adsorbing knowledge, but knowledge does not automatically transfer to intelligence.
    I once did an IQ test and got 141 on it. Which means absolutely NOTHING. As I know that my brain's skillset is extremely good at finding patterns and problem solving. But everything else, I'm the absolute worst at. There are people who'd score below 100 who specialize in certain fields that are absolute geniuses and I'd want no-one else on their position. Heck, it'd probably take 5 of me, just to replace 1 of him. That's how little the IQ actually means. But I do think that IQ measures something that most people need for finding solutions that don't exist yet. So I absolutely think IQ is very likely to have a correlation with the likelihood for someone to find a solution that others did not think of before. It does not mean they are good solutions, but they are still likely to be more unique.

    In fact, Tyler showcased his ability to do all of these things effectively. He was upbeat, took the negative with stride and saw the humor in it. He was direct and clear with his assessment of what intelligence is to him. He agreed that in their shoes he would probably view himself the same way, empathy.

      Personally I scored 108 when I was 18 and there were three people in my class with better scores. I don't feel nearly as smart as any of them. But people with lower scores still did good in different fields so I take iq more like a test to logic maybe(?

      It's painfully obvious though without doing IQ testing whose smarter in a lot of these comparisons. And the thing about intellect is that it really does not matter. Being smarter does not mean more moral, nor better than anyone else so I find the whole conversation to be a dumb thing. Just like beauty, intellect within humanity tends to bring ego and pride which often than not makes people worse or harms them if they don't seek growth and self reflection. I'm a guy with just a H.S. Diploma, yet I'm a Senior Sales Data Analyst in my company. I got this career with Zero experience off of a Temp agency hire 7-8 years ago. I make over $30/hr and I get raises ever 1 yr to 1.5 years. The company liked me and my skills and I learned and grew, that's all. I've sat and spoken with people with College degrees and such and although I don't even care nor do I think I'm a better person than them, I can tell I was smarter than many and not smarter than others. What makes it even more odd to me, I'm just a black guy from a housing projects in New York, one of the first in my generation to even go to college, but I dropped out because it cost too much (Was a Straight A student, Deans list). My mother taught me from a young age to be practical and be scholarly but be good. She taught me school work before I even started school, which I started late at 8 years old. School does not matter, society has tried to force College into mattering and colleges want to seem prestigious because they want money.
      I rather be average intellectually but a morally upright and down to earth person than Mr or Ms. PHD and a snob. You can be both intellectual and moral, it's just harder to be both for many people because they either lose themselves in the degree or sought it to be better than others in the first place.

This is not a simple job, that those PhDs need to try. The amount of things you have to learn, qualifies you in civilian world to be certified as Hazardous Materiel Handler (cleanup crew at high profile incidents/accidents) that costs millions of dollars. The irony of how much people underestimate others. Vice versa I've seen people who enlisted in the army too, as in recruits who joined and did not pass AIT (Advanced Individual Training).

      If anything this shows that IQ doesn’t matter that much. She had an IQ a lot of people might have, above average but not insane, and is like a cancer research hero in society honestly. She was probably the most credentialed out of all the contestants. I think this video is meant to be like a dunk, but it really just shows that lower iq, as in not outlier high, can still have successful careers. Also don’t listen to cooper about college, college degrees are still like the best way to improve wealth in a family. Just don’t be stupid and take a bunch of loans, go to a local college.

    I noticed something about Maria that marked her as low intelligence almost immediately. She made most of her statements based on emotions rather than any factual information. The thing that gave her away was her “feeling” about intelligence being about examining other’s viewpoints. Intelligence isn’t about feelings, it’s about determining what is correct and finding solutions to problems. The proper way is to examine viewpoints and find out what is really correct, regardless of how anyone feels.

Even to the detriment of his own ego. Being smart enough to show humility and even a sense of humor in the face of judgment is a real demonstration of intelligence in my opinion.

      That and it's just plainly obvious her depth of thought is very shallow. Plus, just how she speaks is very average, at best. Doesn't scream intelligence. I honestly think there's something to be said for being slightly lower IQ, or at least closer to average, making it easier to tolerate trudging through the monotony of studying the same subject with the kind of commitment you need to finish a PhD. It's 90% drive and commitment, not brains, in many fields that gets you across the finish line. My biggest problem was not comprehension or the work, I don't think I ever got a B in my life, it was losing interest in something and wanting to move on to learning more about a new subject I knew very little about. There's so much amazing shit in the world, I do not want to devote my life to going that hard in just one field of study. I know bartenders and gas station clerks and a guitar tech, all who have greater intellectual prowess than almost everyone I've ever known who has a master's degree or better. I die inside whenever I hear someone say, "they have a phD so you know they're smart.." Motivated? Absolutely, sure. Smart? Definitely not guaranteed. It's not that hard to roughly guess where someone falls on the IQ scale just by a decent, relatively quick conversation. And it kills me even more when I hear people make dumbass jokes about the intelligence of people just because they have a mundane job. Late night "comedians" are really good for those type of terrible jokes.

      She would be correct. I was in both the Navy and then after 9-11, the National Guard as an Intel Officer. Unlike the normal advancements in the military branches, rank advances in Intel are tighter and it can take you a bit longer to advance. This is simply because you need to be extremely proficient at your rate (job) and because the number of advanced officers needed for Intel is much lower. A soldier could transfer out of Intel and probably advance up the ranks much faster, but once you "get the intel bug", you simply can't walk away.
      The amount of knowledge you acquire regarding all the different classifications of secrecy is insane and since most of it will be classified forever during your lifetime, you can't even give a hint about what you know or you risk going to prison for the rest of your life or simply disappearing if your knowledge of classified materials is expansive.
      Keep in mind, there are 2 levels of "Classified" ABOVE the President of the United States. These are "need to know" ONLY. This is the kind of information that if the President needed to know and was "read" into this information, our Nation and possibly our planet are nearing destruction.
      I have a friend who recently retired after 20 years in the Air Force. He spent 2 years assigned to a base that is very popular among certain civilian groups who investigate UFOs. I have tried countless times to get him to tell me if there are any UFOs or dead aliens in the basement of the facility but he simply smiles and puts his sunglasses on. I have even tried the "pulse rate" trick on him but he, like many of us, was taught how to beat that test.
      It freaks my Doctor out when I can actually significantly change my pulse rate and blood pressure while sitting still in her office hooked up to her machines LOL. Don't be too impressed as it is simply nothing more than a "parlor trick" per se.
