oh no, not the IQ thread again ;-).
wojtek, ranking by IQ could correlate well with ranking by academic performance, for those who do get admitted. unless you are claiming that it is in fact those at the bottom of the IQ chart, who are denied admission, that may turn out the smartest at academic performance.
i had a few outstanding questions for miles, the last time this thread came around. i do not think he responded to them, perhaps because like others he found the thread tiring. in my response to him, i had provided various pieces of information showing that the correlation between standards testing (which i used as a substitute for IQ) was very poor. some examples: boys scored better than girls in standardized tests, but girls do better academically (at the college level).
