It would seem to be in their self interest to not skew the test results. The military has done a lot of research on their testing. A soldier that is too incompetent is a danger to his/her comrades. Previous attempts to recruit soldiers with too low of an IQ was a disaster. More danger than help.
I don’t really see how they would he less trustworthy than a school board. Especially considering the stakes.
- freedomben 3y agoAgreed. The military is incredibly scientific about their approach to testing. No test is perfect of course, but they have high levels of funding for full-time professionals to do nothing but study this in a rigorous academic way. Also worth remembering is that the military academies are ivy league, so not exactly low value institutions. Where there is a need for personnel, there is some incentive to accept people who might not be ideal, but they are going to approach that in the most sane way possible.
