Don't idolize scientists. Some of the dumbest people I've ever known I met in undergrad.
Graduates were only mildly better.
Everything is a bell-curve even if scientists on average have an IQ of 110 (generous). +40% of them are sub 100.

@NickolasGir Actually your numbers are way off from reality. On average the IQ of scientists is something much higher than 154. In fact 154 is the IQ you get if you exclude the math portion of an IQ test in an attempt to make it "fair". On an ordinary IQ test their IQ would be even higher. In fact a vanishingly small portion of scientists have an IQ below 122.
@NickolasGir Here is the breakdown by verbal, spatial, and mathematical if you are curious.
@freemo @NickolasGir It looks like self-fellating communo-fascist drivel, to the "classically educated."
Sounds like someone with no education would say out of jealousy honestly. Not that I think IQ is all that meaningful mind you, but I felt it useful to play by the OPs game.
I dont recall ever saying it was meaningful. I said that scientists have very high IQ on average. I never claimed IQ as a measure is a meaningful measure.
@freemo
I appreciate you playing along
@freemo @NickolasGir So you both do and don't think it't meaningful?
