Just wanted to note that my father had an IQ of 186, but in his own words, "I couldn't spell cat if you gave me the C and the A." There are different types of intelligence. Just because someone isn't a good speller, doesn't mean they aren't smart. I know people who are weak in language skills but very sharp with numbers and can do math in their head before I've even had a chance to write the equation out.
