Comments by "Tespri" (@Tespri) on "I Took an IQ Test to Find Out What it Actually Measures" video.
Did you know that taking running test on different moments ends up in different results as well? Same with anything that measures talent/skill

@larion2336 Denying that eugenics works is same as denying natural selection.

IQ measures exactly what it's suppose to. Your intelligence and it correlates perfectly. Now for actual IQ test itself. Just like every test, the results varieties depending on how well you are while taking the test. Just like how runners can't run at max speed if they didn't sleep well day before same applies to IQ. Issue with "math and IQ" Is that math is actually memorization. If you don't know the math terms for example, then you can't make a score no matter how intelligent you actually are. This is why real IQ tests don't do math tests. They detect your ability to find patterns and make correct predictions based on that. This does help with school, but it doesn't determine can you get good grades in math or not. As said.. school subjects are mostly about your ability to memorize. People who hate IQ tests are people who score lowly and people with political biases. They want to believe that everyone is a genius and only your education decides how smart you actually is.

Does a runner always run at the same speed when tested, or does it variate throughout the day? Does them sometimes being bit slower than normally prove that everyone are as fast as he is? Same affects IQ test. How well you slept day before it, did you remember to eat? Had coffee? Drank alcohol, did test on hangover etc...
