@Jkqyl @Tipsycaek @wellplayd_ggate @SmailsHat effect of additional prep on these scores, and the effect isn't that large really
@Jkqyl raw brainpower isn't something you can improve with exercise. you can improve test-taking to some extent, with diminishing returns

@HbdNrx What is raw brainpower? Can we piece it apart and think about the possibilities or is that too autistic? -
@Jkqyl I'd say raw brainpower isn't directly measurable, but those with more are much better at solving problems.Tests provide insight to it -
@HbdNrx In a computer what would solve problems? Not just raw brainpower but developed algorithms. -
@HbdNrx In machine learning, the correctness of algorithms depends on the amount of data the learner has seen. -
@Jkqyl we can't just change peoples' algorithms directly. I gave you some evidence of how effort only changes scores a little. -
@HbdNrx People develop their algorithms. This is what learning is. -
@HbdNrx You talked about an unknown amount of effort put in for something some of the kids might not even care about much. -
@Jkqyl they quantified the time put in. kids know the SAT matters. you don't have data showing dramatic improvements - 6 more replies
