I don't know about "losers," but maybe insecure- or envious-behaving people.
I was never told what my IQ tests were, but the educational system kept pulling me out of class to arrange triangles for years. Later, I was lazy and took the SAT without coaching, prep, or studying. Missed one on the math section, but let's not talk about the English section. ;@)
I don't even believe in IQ tests as a valid, quantitative, reductionist, relative-performance ranking for anything other than taking IQ tests. Intelligence is multidimensional, multi-domain, difficult to linearize to orthogonal properties, and inferred based on a particular performance, not quantified directly by opening-up someone's head.
Can't people just be people better in some areas? I can't draw for beans, my handwriting looks like I have advanced Parkinson's, and the neighborhood animals tip me to not sing in the shower.
