[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 6065753, member: 24302"] Saw on I think it was "20/20" a segment back in the '90's about the then highest known I.Q. person. His I.Q. was over 200 if I remember right. He worked as a bouncer in a nightclub. Worked on various theories in his offtime. White guy. Said high intelligence doesn't necessarily translate into money. The lady you mentioned probably had a photographic memory, which is a real thing. Doesn't necessarily mean she's smarter than most but would definitely be an advantage for her. This DEI business though at Harvard and other Ivy League schools ignored grades and asked about things like participation in sports to give blacks a better chance over whites and Asians. If our best universities no longer focus on intellect to turn out the brightest people for positions of power then in the long run the country suffers. It's unfair to kids of every color who put in long hours studying to achieve good grades. [/QUOTE]
