However, true intelligence is the ability to create abstractions from specifics, and then to apply those abstractions in a different context to come up with different specifics. For instance, if your car doesn't start and you learn that it's because the battery is dead... and then you realize that all of the components of the electrical system need to be sufficient so when your friend's car doesn't start you can diagnose and fix a loose battery cable. This idea of being 'book smart' but not intelligent is the lack of the ability to generalize, and then to be able to take general knowledge and synthesize an answer to a variant problem in the same or similar domain.

An interesting thing about IQ is that it varies depending on environment and situation, especially if you are not very stress tolerant. I generally score around 140 - 145 on tests but I have a reasonably low stress tolerance, which means I literally cant think straight in a stressful environment. The interesting part is that you could find people way less intellectually gifted than me, that would do better at jobs that require high stress tolerance. Social anxiety plays a big part in that for me.

I was tested (3) times with 3 different results in my youth and the range: was considerable 115-139. Fifty years later I am retired comfortably and evidence (portfolio and resume) suggests I am capable enough, likely around the 90th. percentile. I quit High School and still managed to become a manufacturing engineer with a Fortune 500 Co. and I later built a successful small business from scratch and I also did well-dabbling part-time in Real estate. In social circles, I am comfortable with friends holding Masters and Ph.D. Education? There is no degree on my wall and my education is mostly informal and I am highly critical of our public school system. I would argue about half the time I spent in a classroom was wasted.

One of those aspects, for example, often is the lack of practise in how to learn and manage learning. The mind gets to the conclusion so fast it doesn't desire those in between steps most people have to take. This takes away on the practice of learning itself. Learning isn't just knowing stuff by memory. It's also knowing how to get to the answer or result following certain steps. One aspect in those steps is management of information. School trains this as well. Now you can pass the exam by raw brainpower (maybe not the best in the class just as you stated), but as you move on life will get more complicated.

And you forgot looks

I have two issues with IQ tests: 1) they vary quite a bit. My lowest score was 116 and my highest was 156. The 116 was the last from a series of tests from Eysenck's book Know Your Own IQ. I scored about 124 in the others. The 156 was in a MENSA test under exam conditions, and it was not a fluke because I scored 148 to be invited for the test. I think the Eysenck scores are much more realistic. 2) Average IQ tests vary a lot from country to country. They are about 106 in China, 100 in Britain, 70 in large parts of Africa and 50 in Nepal. I think this is likely to reflect the standard of teaching in those countries. If the average IQ was really 50 in Nepal then there would be hardly any Nepalese people bright enough to become soldiers, but Ghurkhas are renowned for being great soldiers.

Very educational perspective on a topic that honestly doesn't get as much attention as it should. My theory on his quote "if you're the smartest person in the room, then you're in the wrong room" is that many people (especially nowadays) tend to get complacent in positions where they easily excel at rather than try to step up to more challenging positions and out of their comfort zones, they much prefer to stay in these positions and remain on the top of that scale (aka big fish in small pond).

Having an IQ of 200 has made me the smartest person in the room most of the time. Being around people has always been outside my comfort zone. And lastly where in the world am I supposed to go find people smarter than I am.? I'm an intellectual not educated. I never found school interesting for the most part it was memorization of stuff much of which was propaganda and nonsense. So I have no credentials or specialty which might expose me to the other cursed people. The thing I find rather charming is having people with absolutely no concept of what a curse it is to know or be able to extrapolate facts, truth, concepts better than/beyond anyone you know. I literally do not know a single person I can have meaningful conversations with. The vast vast majority of people can only visualize/imagine things they already know/were told. New information or fact based logical counters to what they "think" an attack not a chance to be correct. Most people allow feelings and history/experience to determine what is "true". I have zero ego about facts and truth. There is literally nothing more important to me than facts and the truth. Point out my error and present me with better more accurate/correct information I with thank you for correcting me. I hate being wrong/incorrect because I often have input and never want to misinform or mislead anyone unintentionally. Way to late to make this short. Generalizing what people you are not capable of being should do, is rather humorous. Perhaps I should tell world class athletes how to do what I never could? :)

IQ is not a real thing and it is a bad thing to even compare yourselves. Imagine taking an IQ test based on math when living in a country that has poor education or no education at all. Now compare it to yourself who lives in a developed country and passed the required school years. Your second IQ would be way bigger than your first one even though your first is "higher intelligence". IQ is not a real and bad measurement of intelligence. Maybe the only real result would be if both the same person (same education, same life history, almost everything is the same) take a test. My IQ is for example 90-100 in a developed country, Lithuania. Next thing would be to discuss what is intelligence and so on to detail more accurately result cause and effect but no time for this.

What I mean is they have only ever had in class knowledge which is why the running joke is if you cant make it as an engineer you become a civil engineer and just approve plans. But all engineers who are only book smart and don't understand field conditions or people are the reason things fail. Take wind turbines when they explode into flames, why do you think that happens? Because during the test the engineer ask well whats the highest winds and temperature in the area and what are the chances it will occur to justify the cost. Anything over 10 percent justifies the cost anything under does not so if the chance of a freak storm coming in is low they don't guard against it and the turbine will fail. Or they don't account for people. And humans will stress things to the max, which is why tension straps labeled at 5k pull actually can go to 6 or 8k but they dont say that because they know humans will only go slightly above the max if on there by a few hundred. Hence why smart people tend to be world dumb. Im not that smart myself, but I love being a mechanical engineer and fabricating my own things.

My IQ tested in at 130 when I was a kid but I don't like spending my whole waking life on the job. I like to have my hobbies. So I ended up as a truck driver, and I just keep my costs low by keeping everything minimalist, having a roommate in the cheapest apartment I could find, driving a car that doesn't break down a lot, and staying out of debt. My dream is to buy a piece of land out in Southern Oregon and build a small meadery on it. I want to raise the bees that make the honey, and cultivate a semi-wild field of wildflowers and a fruit orchard and a grove of oak trees for the acorns and the wood. I want to sell Iberian ham, artisan mead, ciders, and maybe charcoal.

It is important to discern between intelligence and wisdom. I have observed many intelligent people who were utter fools in life, and I was one when I was young. And I have observed many average intelligent people who were wise and built wealth more effectively than those more intelligent who were typically far more educated. And perseverance is also an important factor in success.

And it's no bloody wonder!

125 (above average) IQ and I’m a Pharma Quality Director. I found a career that is stimulating and requires critical thinking along with having a high tolerance for stress. I’d say it’s a good fit for me. I would also say I’ve worked in other careers that didn’t stimulate or challenge me enough. Thankful for my current path.

This needs to be taught somehow. I don’t know if learning that you “suck” for modern society is problematic then I’m not sure how. One idea I have is there is a widely believed fallacy in the US: Since we all start in the first grade then it is only a question of how hard you try, your determination, that determines your fate. “I was dedicated and I tried harder so I made it.”

I think one very important aspect of high-competence jobs that people don't discuss enough is stress tolerance. This is just from my own experience in business but as someone who has been around for a bit having a high stress tolerance is really important. I've seen plenty of people smarter than myself fall out because they screwed up due to pent up stress.

And b) have an urge to comment, which means they are interactive and compelled to add to the subject or discuss it. Imagine how people are recommended this video? Does someone get this video if they only clicked on food, dance, cinema or any other non educational subject?

My marks were down 40%. I became a computer nerd and videogames addict. 3) Adult: Managed to get into the university anyway, but I chose the wrong career (Management) because I wanted friends and social skills so bad... 4) College: Lack of social skills. Poor salary perspective. Economic crisis in my country (Spain). Dropped out of college. 5) After dropping out of college I tried many things: Online poker, e-commerce, trading... 6) Got very successful at trading, turned 5000$ into +1$ million taking huge risks and high leverage. Age 29. 7) I traveled the world the next two years. 8) I started trading again: I lost the 95% of my money this time, I even forgot how to trade, my capacity of concentration greatly decreased during those two years having fun. 9) I learned programming in VBA, Autohotkey, C++, Python, all by myself in just 6 months + 6 months building strategies. I wanted to improve my strategy by making backtests of my ideas. Anyway, I couldn´t implement my original strategy programatically because it´s not possible yet. Result: Automated strategies couldn´t beat my original strategy. Not even close. 10) This year: I retook my original trading strategy and gaining back some of the money lost right now and keep continuing doing so. Hopefully I will be millionaire again in the near future. I did an IQ test during my college years, I had 130 points.
