[quote=CA renter]As for the bolded part of your quote, guess what the schools/classrooms would look like if we segregated by IQ? It would be segregated by race, color, and background/SES. That is why we legally cannot track students by IQ…and why teachers have to teach to the middle of the class. It is against the law to track by IQ.[/quote]
I thought IQ tests were not really academic tests and more how you think/reason, etc?
I think my IQ is very average having mostly gotten just “Satisfactory” throughout all my elementary school years.
I just studied a lot, even when I hear/read that other people didn’t really have to in High School…which I did have to.
I disagree that someone of a certain race/color/background at a young age has a lower IQ than someone of the other, more academic (considered) races.
You can call it the poor kid who doesn’t have a safe home to study and bad friends would be a bad influence, but I don’t think that’s called IQ.
