you never answered my question Vindi

obv you aint learning words that you never hear wt

yeah

it represents your ability to manipulate information with your mind

you can't train people to do this shit

im talking about the linguistic example

also yes you absolutely can

you can't take someone with downs syndrome and coach them to get a 160 on an IQ test

and it's not only vocab

yeah but you can train a normal person and help them get a higher IQ on the test

it's other things like verbal reasoning

so the thing is

as i said before

like you'll have to pick a word most similar

you cant do it with downies, but that's an extreme example

should rebrand IQ to something else

lol

most people don't have an etra chromosome

that requires genuine understanding now rote memorisation

and other th ings like pick the odd one out

because it is measuring something with some impact on person's life

you can train memorization

low IQ people are just worse at this

you can train your brain to be better at tasks

and it cannot be coached

your brain is like every other muscle in your body

even tho the brain isnt a muscle

but you know what i mean

it's like every other body part

you can get a bit better with a lifetime of practice yes but not much

you can train it, and it can become impotent

not a life time of practice

a few years

which is what school does

🤔

i like how magic was treated in the 'Black Company' series

if you can take someone with an iq of 80 and coach them to get a score of 160 I'm sure the scientific world would love to read the paper

especially if you're a kid, when your brain is malliable and most effective at training

but having done an IQ test, I can tell you it's not possible

again, you're using extreme examples

but if it was possible it should be possible in the extreme right
