1. IQ of Africans in Sub-Saharan Africa

IQ of Africans oscillates around a value of 71, we will later see that this value is partly due to an impact of undernourishment, the intellectual genotype of Africans is evaluated by Lynn at an IQ of 80, ie the value obtained by Africans living in sufficient nutrient conditions. We will later look at this extrapolated figure of 80.

Anything below 83, per the US military, is totally useless and cannot be taught to learn any meaningful jobs or tasks. My IQ is 146. This is scary that pretty much an entire race of people have IQs two standard deviations below the norm. No wonder they can't function and talk appropriately.

Talk about coincidence!

When I joined MENSA, they told me I tested at 146.

I joined MENSA to meet intelligent women. However, it was in Kahlifornia, so the majority were pretty strange.

I ended up marrying a woman from a family of very high IQs and we had a couple of very bright kids.

When I was in aerospace I spent 7 years working with our most advanced tech. I would bet that almost none of the engineers and scientists I worked with were under 150 and some were much higher.

Some seemed perfectly normal. Others were like the stereotype of the mad scientist.

I had a bro-in-law with an IQ of 200. I bought him a lab coat that said on the back "Union of Mad Scientists, Local 86". He wore it proudly. He WAS, in fact, bipolar and he worked in a lab.
