    Measuring IQ is kinda like stepping on a cheap bathroom scale. Every time, it says something different.http://on.wsj.com/2b8OHRj

        My cheap bathroom scale gives slightly different readings each time but the range's narrow. If an IQ test is equally reliably it's fine

        Yours is a bit of a cop-out comment. Moods change IQ s.. Physical health also. But they're pretty accurate.

        Trying to dilute IQ? Stanford–Binet test only measure that is reliable and valid. Can't compare to other tests.pic.twitter.com/KmZZPRzb4g

        Simple but effective test: Do you think Donald Trump is fit to be President? Leave you to figure what answer says about IQ.

        Well, obviously. You can not measure something impossible to define.

        To expect IQ scores to be precisely the same every time is to misunderstand the nature of the tests. Some imprecision is inevitable.

        That many smart people have been misled by the 40-year ideological war of lies & spin against IQ is proof that IQ is not everything.
