White Americans attend college at a lower rate than African-Americans when they have the same IQ. I suspect that’s good for whites and bad for blacks, for the average college student.

- CheezeIt 5y agoI’m not really a source memorizer, sorry. I think at 117 IQ it was 50% and 67% respectively (in some past year). It’s probably tough to google too. But you could look at overall post-secondary attendance rates and compare against 12th grade literacy proficiency rates to see the same picture.
- epicureanideal 5y agoI'm not sure if that exact statistic is listed in his recent book, but a very similar one is... IQ by occupation by race. Charles Murray's "Facing Reality". It includes many tables of statistics that may interest you. Note that despite a lot of anger toward him, I've read several of his books, and he goes to great lengths to state that he doesn't believe we should discriminate against people based on their race. I highly recommend reading his books rather than listening to commentary about them.
