What are /pol/'s thoughts on IQ tests as a metric of quantifying intelligence? How trustworthy do you believe them to be in assessing someone's cognitive ability and potential outcomes in life? If the scores on the tests administered to the captured Nazi officials during the Nuremberg trials (picrel) and the claim of JFK having an IQ of 119 happen to be accurate, it would imply that someone only has to be better at matching patterns than around 80-90% of the population to potentially become politically successful, which I find interesting.
