Nassim Nicholas Taleb - I suspect the I.Q., SAT, and school grades are tests...

I suspect the I.Q., SAT, and school grades are tests designed by nerds so they can get high scores in order to call each other intelligent.. Smart and wise people who score low on IQ tests, or patently intellectually defective ones, like the former U.S. President George W. Bush, who score high on them (130), are testing the test and not the reverse.
