Two individuals with different reading and math cognitive abilities. P1: ● Math: 8/10 ● Reading: 9/10 P2: ● Math: 7/10 ● Reading: 6/10 P2, despite being worse than P1 at math, is more likely to pursue a math-intensive field. People tend to go with their relative strengths.

How does somebody typically know that they are objectively better or worse at math than reading? Last time I had a reading test, I was 9 years old.

Seems very anglosphere-centric. There's nothing like SATs (in either the UK or US sense) in the French or many other European education systems.

Not entire sure but possibly. Sweden, curiously, has a copy of the SAT, called SweSAT. Denmark and Norway I think does not have any university entrance testing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Scholastic_Aptitude_Test …

If you are English native, you can find out your tilt by taking online tests. E.g.: Vocabulary: https://openpsychometrics.org/tests/VIQT/ vs. Figure reasoning: https://sifter.org/iqtest/
