Ranking IQ's of Strangers! - bjcheung77 - 03-29-2022
Just watched this fun one, haha... I would have never guessed the PhD person and many of them...

My kids took an IQ test when they were very young. It took about 5 hours. I don't think taking one online gives you a great picture.
I also think that the people who THINK they have high EQ ratings are VERY biased towards themselves. I thought the PhD chick would go right down to the bottom, because she thought she was SUCH a great person. Ugh.

EQ and IQ aren't the same thing. That seems to be confusing for some of them. Some of them are really full of themselves.

I think they were supposed to rank based on "intelligence" and they weren't told that the only way they were going to be judged was on an IQ test. I also question the validity of that.
But the ones that thought they had the highest EQ were the ones that put me off the most. So their EQ isn't quite as high as they were sure it would be.

I completely agree. The ones who were going on and on about their EQ really didn't seem to understand what it is or how to practice it. They were off putting for sure.
