Re: relationship between SAT scores and intelligence?
To make it perfectly clear, I am in no way denying that IQ tests correlate very well with school results, and thus also that there is good correlation between those two and SAT results also.
There is good data to point that out.
What I'm saying is that those three can not on their own be a complete measure of intelligence, since they only reflect on a small portion of possible mental tasks posed. Basically I'm arguing against the narrowing of the intelligence term, and giving academia 'sole ownership' of true intelligence.
