Sorry about the vent
Hi Mickey
A quick note just to tell you that IQ tests don't tell much about the intelligence of a person. I am an Ed. Psychologist and dedicated 14 years to learning disabilities before changing the path of my career ( then, I started working on public policy and disability, etc.)
In fact, there are different trends within the domain of psychology of intelligence.
On the other hand, if I took any IQ test to my president I bet also he would under 100. But he is a president, so, would you call him unsuccessful? I wouldn't . I am not from the US.
Sending you a hug
