More unacrrutate information from cali. No one takes these IQ scores too seriously. And even in your link, the difference between US vs Canadian IQ is 1 measly point.

Haha, wow. I don't even know what to say to you anymore, your blaming me for a website that I found. So just because you don't take them seriously then its wrong information. I can start saying that to every link you give me for now on and remind you about this post. So the one you do take serious shows Canada is better, your so funny, if this wasn't city data I would be do all kind of stuff to you...
No, the kind of stuff I would do to you would be telling you how great you are Seems like you and your partner sandman have a thing for inaccurate info.

Please just tell us if you're threatening him. For good measure, tell us what you'd do to him if you had the chance.
Hard, but I think I could hack it (as an adult, eighth grade me would have failed, namely because that ridiculous system hadn't taught me things like geography, civics, or human biology yet).
I thought the following article just published by New York Post was interesting, I guess it fits in with this topic. A study called the Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies released their results on Tuesday this week. The test was developed and released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, which is made up of mostly industrialized member countries. They tested about 166,000 people ages 16 to 65 in more than 20 countries and subnational regions. In math, reading and problem-solving using technology American adults scored below the international average on a global test. Adults in Japan, Canada, Australia, Finland and other countries scored significantly higher than the United States in the tests and Italy and Spain ranked at the bottom.

What a ridiculous title, the study in question didn't even try to gauge the average human, it merely listed the OECD countries, which contrary to the New York Times view, does not even begin to encompass most humans.
I agree with you on that. It's beyond insulting. Silly media, eh! Don't even know how to use words properly.
Maybe 'un-smarter' would have been a better choice of wording for their title of that article, and more appropriate considering the title of this topic .... "Are you smarter than an American?"
Personally I prefer the words intelligent or unintelligent to words like smart and dumb since neither smart nor dumb have any relation to intelligence and both have such different meanings.
