China is engineering High IQ offsprings

I just feel you need to have a bit more humility. It's not the man that says the argument, but what the argument is. There are differences of opinion. If i went to my shed in the garden to learn, and i gave a good argument read from a book and well sourced, and i felt yours was not , and gave good reasons, you would be obliged to attack my argument, and not degrade my institution.

Aston is decent from what i have heard.

I'm not saying that at all. I'm just peeved that an undergraduate can comment on Cambridge's position in academia, especially as he's not even at Cambridge to have experienced it.



I wasn't attacking his university, as above. I'd have said the same thing to an Oxford student, that as an undergraduate Oxford student you can't comment on how Cambridge is faring in academia.

He does not need to go to cambridge to have an opinion on your view point though. Cambridge does not have a seal on international politics and economics.

If it did and she was there. I feel sorry for the world. Poor her. They should have extra classes at Cambridge for people like that.

Cambridge is ranked first in the majority of its courses on the complete university guide...

Intelligence does not exist.

But if it did, IQ would be a terrible, terrible measure of it.

If the Chinese are doing this, it shows the triumph of western philosophy over eastern philosophy.

Where did you do your phd in psychology

If you think IQ is a terrible measure of intelligence than i think evolution is false

afterall, the government has funded both, and you think your smarter than the hundreds of psychologists who established links

Please retard somewhere else next time, maybe the daily mail

There are many top physchologists who feel the 'IQ' test is not a true measure of intelligence if it can even be measured in one test.

Tell me, how many people do you think in cambridge and oxford have an iq lower than 110(students wise)

As much as I agree that one shouldn't boast about their institution in an attempt to diminish an opponent's argument, it can be used to demonstrate their suitability to discussing a certain topic.
I'm sure Aston is a fine university but it's not Cambridge...I mean come on...

Interesting that Cambridge isn't exactly renowned for economics in comparison to a few other universities in the UK; if you're gonna boast do it right!

1st. The existence of intelligence has not been empirically proved.

2nd. IQ tests were invented to find children with problems in school-based cognitive tasks such as maths, comprehension, reasoning, etc. IQ was never made to measure intelligence.

ok then, use some common sense, why do you think some people, no matter how hard they try, cannot get above a c at gcse

why is it that gcse results can predict a level results?

Iq exists, saying it is not empirically proved is saying evolution is not empirically proven

There is evidence for evolution even if it is not direct. There is no direct or indirect evidence for that thing called intelligence. A bunch of the top psychologists were asked what was intelligence a couple of years ago. Guess what? Every one of them came up with a different definition.

Go on , give me a reason why cambridge students are at cambridge, do you think they all work harder then everyone else?

Why is it that everything apart from intelligence we can accept natural talent, ie all sports music

But when it comes to academia, NO, it must not exist

FFS, To the Psychologist from oxford, answer me this, why did the US universties use a test that measured iq to allow people into the top universities

Are they wrong, and are you write, do you know more than admissions tutors? well enlighten us

Why is it that the UKCAT test uses drawings and asks you what matches with it, why is it that most people,even though they do it again, do not achieve significantly higher results( please, no idiots who read about one guy going from 650 to 850 and thinking it applies to every single person). What relevance does random pictures have to do with medicine?????

Why do companies require aptitude tests, is it to weed out the hard workers from the bright, and what are the bright

I can go on and on, i cant believe you have studied at oxford, yet you cannot grasp simple concepts!

Pardon my english, i am not writing an essay , i do not wish to waste time editing my posts

Ok, I sailed through my A-levels and I'm currently in my A2 year. My predicted grades are A*A*AA, I hold an offer from LSE and all that **** and I never struggled, ignoring most of my homework assignments and generally being extremely lazy.
I measured my IQ once with a test that is widely considered to be legit and it was just above 90, that's where my belief that IQ is bull**** was heavily reinforced.

China has an mixed economy just like most Western nation (I mean who really practices the true free market?), and it no longer depends on FDI for economic investments as it did in the 90s. In-fact, China it's self provides FDI for many developing nations. China's political system will naturally changes once GDP per Capita rises enough... as an middle class will emerge which will demand more freedom. The world will not be dominated by people of the Anglo-Saxon stock.
