Just came accross the results of the National Australian IQ Test 2003.

In summary the highest IQ profile would be for a:
1. Male
2. Between 41-59yrs old
3. Oldest Child
4. Big Birthh weight
5. Married
6. Drinks up to or over daily limit
7. A late riser (no wonder) :lol:
8. Doesn't own a pet
9. Earns $100k+

I wonder who fits this profile on AF? :o :roll:

I understand that in Korea the archery champions are generally the oldest child.
May be we could build a typical profile of Australian archery champions.

Have a go :lol:

Of course the fact that those of high IQ happen to have the profile mentioned by Robert does not mean that those who happen to have that profile necessarily have high IQ. That is: reciprocity does not necessarily apply.
It is the same as the well known logical arguement of: "all dogs have four legs, my cat has four legs, therefore my cat is a dog", or "we have a disaster and must do something, this is something, therefore we must do it".

Just 50 (plus GST). :( It is the GST bit that hurts.

Got married after I won a lottery in 1969, called National Service, and then discovered the Army paid an extra $26.50 pf if you were married. But hey, it has worked well. :lol:

Assuming reciprocity works, and you exclude the criteria not applicable to U18's, or where U18's did not get a chance to influence the results, I am a boy genius :D (takes cover under desk)

For an 18 YO you know a lot of big words. Did you swallow a thesaurus? (yes i know i've probably spelt that wrong but i can't be bothered checking!)

The biggest words i knew at 18 were :
Intoxication
Misdemeanour
Suspension
and, unconscious.

:D

Yes thesaurus is right, nah I didn't swallow one, I was just repeating Jim and I am currently 16 so I don't have to know that many big words yet :D

Having a look at it again I would suspect that being a channel 9 show chances are it is only watched by
* football fans, thus low IQ rate
* old people who like DIY shows

all the intelligent young people had better things to do. :P

I don't need to take an IQ to find out how smart I am, I already know how great I am :P
