IQ has nothing to do with education, so it's very possible for someone to have a high IQ and be poorly educated or vice versa.
You certainly never want to assume that just because someone has earned a degree they must have a high IQ.
Maybe that answers your question...
So all those educational experts are just that hasbeensdripsunderpreasureQuote:

Someone might have a low IQ but be really motivated to learn - they find it harder and it takes them longer to develop an understanding but they get there in the end.
And then there is the situation in universities which seem to be focused on results these days, pumping out degrees in high volume. So you have all these supposedly highly educated people wandering around without a clue because either they haven't been pushed to reach their full potential, or they have been allowed to scrape through to keep the stats up.
And then there are people like me :D
and what are people like u like SC?
You would never understand, Zed :p
What I find amazing is what is used to determine IQ's
why is it that more dropouts are rich $$$???
