Relation between IQ and Job Professions

Post by mjrpes »

I thought this was pretty interesting:

http://www.sq.4mg.com/IQ-jobs.htm

Seeing I'm not in a "profession" yet, based on my IQ it does kind of relate to the professions I have in mind. Factory packer is not among them.

But IQ isn't everything to success at a job:

http://www.sq.4mg.com/SuccessSQ-EI.htm

"success likely develops from: 1/3 IQ, 1/3 social skills, 1/3 ambition" That sounds about right to me, although I think ambition could be more like a good half of what's needed.

Interesting stuff.

I really don't mean to be obtuse, but why is this racist? The only reason I can think of is the possible bias of one IQ test or another (assuming of course this quote only refers to developed nations). But you could easily say "success likely develops from: 1/3 innate intelligence, 1/3 social skills, 1/3 ambition" and it would be an accurate statement, don't you think?

Fuck off Hitler, if you can't see why it's racist then your white hood is obstructing your view.

I will not fuck off as I really want an explantion of why that statement, in and of itself, isn't true. Say you're a poor minority living in the projects or in a foster home or a shelter. You are required by law to attend school for FREE. So if you take the schooling, mix it in w/ your innate intelligence and ambition you should be able to overcome your hardships, right? (And don't give me shit about the extra problems of growing up poor. I grew up poor and graduated from college.)

P.S. Don't call me Hitler - we Jews don't dig that so much. :icon26:

Yeah, only the Jews and their plans for a Zionist utopia will ever succeed based on this formula. Blaxicans have no chance at world domination :(

There is no naturally occurring correlation between IQ and knowledge.

An example of this are Mexican grease monkeys. They drop out of high school in order to work at their uncle's shop, pimping rides, and have an impeccable understanding of the inner workings of automobiles, however cannot multiply any numbers in their heads unless they're single digit numbers.

wtf? Who the fuck do you think you are? You've got a problem with me just because I didn't go to private school? Well fuck you, we weren't all born with a silver spoon in our mouths, Roussel Onassis. And I'm not black, so keep your hate speech for someone else. Someone ban this asshole already, I can't believe bigots are still tolerated in this forum.

WTF??? I have no probelms w/ you whatsoever. I'm just totally confused. :confused: I never went to private school and even if I did, why would I care if you did? If your lifelong goal was to be a janitor or a rocket scientist I couldn't care less as long as you chased your goal.

*sigh* :tear:

Whatever you say, I just don't understand what you could possibly have against people of colour. A black person invented the Air Conditioner, so make sure you turn that off next time you start ranting on the internet about how much you hate them. Stop using elevators, too, because a black person invented those. Life would be a lot harder without your worst enemy, so perhaps you should consider that next time you run your mouth. Ignorance stinks.

I'm not even talking about race, I'm just talking about that one particular quote snippet that referred to the ratios equalling success. I didn't even read the articles.

Are you e-baiting me? Doh!
