A college-level IQ these days means something low like 100 -- you're probably thinking of a more stringent standard.
- ivl 9y agoI was under the impression among people with undergraduate degrees it was closer to 110-115.
- learc83 9y agoAn IQ of 100 is supposed to represent the mean score of the general population. The average IQ of someone with a college degree is a good bit higher than that. From a quick Google search it looks like it's around 115, which is a standard deviation higher than the general population.
- SamReidHughes 9y agoI was referring to more of a minimum than an average.
- Joeri 9y agoIsn't half the population below 100? How can you consider that low?
- SamReidHughes 9y agoThat's lower than half the population.
- thaumasiotes 9y agoBecause it's terrible. Pretty much the same way we can consider the median personal income ($31,100 in 2016 - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MEPAINUSA646N https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MEPAINUSA646N ) "low". Because it's low.
