I have given dozens of ravens-progressive-matrices variant tests to friends of mine of various intellects and the results are basically never surprising.
I guess it's bullshit though.
Third world country girl who struggled trying to learn computer science and gave up and became an accountant? 95
Kind of slow guy that can't do any algebra in his head, bronze 1 at league of legends? 98
Genius guy that is master tier in league of legends and constantly outwits everyone in banter? 143
Asperger sharp awkward guy that is astonishingly good at math - diamond 3 league of legends? 133
Me: I think I'm an idiot sometimes and smart other times. Platinum 1 at league of legends? 122
My older brother (1): Obviously smarter than me but not by that much seemingly, and definitely a lot physically healthier than I am: 130
My oldest brother (2): National bridge champion and obviously very intelligent, masters in math, been an alcoholic for 5 years and got noticeably less sharp overtime: 135
Another guy who was challenger tier at league of legends and also obviously very intelligent in conversation? 138
Smart younger guy that is kind of whacky and out there, diamond 3 at league of legends: 120 (deviates from the norm here but still lends evidence to the correlation)
Extremely competent native american guy that is 2000 ELO in Chess and was diamond 2/3 in league of legends? 120 (while high though, and same caveat as the above example as the other example just above)
hMmmMmmmMmMMMMMM I guess it is just confirmation bias.
I found it interesting how well it correlated with rank in league of legends. There are about 5-6 other samples I just don't recall the specifics anymore.
