@Jkqyl I'm not really sure why you're arguing that if only people put in more work they'll score substantially better on these tests.
@Jkqyl the MCAT requires science knowledge and has a very high correlation with IQ.

@HbdNrx It would certainly be better to use the MCAT than IQ. But where's the incentive to actually learn an entire scientific discipline? -
@Jkqyl maybe, maybe not. it's less efficient for everyone if we're just wasting people's time on learning stuff they don't need & IQ works -
@HbdNrx "Wasting people's time on learning stuff", who are going to be the scientists? Are we going to stop developing stuff? -
@Jkqyl the point is that we should make sure that the things we're making people learn are actually useful to them -
@HbdNrx That's why I say focus on important disciplines. Have tests in those areas at a high level of knowledge and skill. -
@HbdNrx And require that they never live on welfare.
