An IQ test. The Original test of ignorance used by lame ass establishments like schools the military or fuck even something you do for fun to see how "smart" you are. But I wonder how a generalized test can show how intelligent our diverse population is, people are all different in every aspect of the word. If your not good at the specific questions that are on this bias test its gunna say that your dumb, what if your not good at math but your very musically talented that doesn't make you dumb it just makes you different.
Take people like Bob Dylan, Jimmy Page, or The Beatles nobody knows or cares how well they do on an IQ test or what grades they got in high school. These people are viewed as intelligent because of there great talents in music. Does anyone care how good Van Gough did in English, no because he was a brilliant artist. People use different parts of there brain and just because the majority is good at certain things doesn’t mean that the minority are dumb. The select few who can do what most can’t like musicians or artists should be graded equally, if not have an advantage.
The way i see it Genius like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
