Is there any correlation between college degrees and intelligence? Was there any historically?Is there any currently?
No, no, and no.
Of course there is
kill yourself OP even better take your service weapon and shoot your whole unit
>>544551661There used to be a correlation, but with DEI acceptance displacing white males, a degree means nothing now.

>>544551661>thinks intelligence is how many good goy pieces of paper you have This is why women should not have the right to vote
Well, it's been a good run men, but women have overtaken us. It'll be a bit of an adjustment, but I think they're ready to fight all the wars from now on by themselves while we stay at home and cook.It's your turn gurl, yass bitch, slay etc
Smart people don't think themselves as smart
>>544552400Shouldn't that be the 13th percentile, not 87th?
>>544551661Gross, but to be fair I know males like this too, even in engineering. They think they’re hot shit because they have le piece of paper from some mid-tier shit hole university but they get mogged by home hobbiest types that actually know how to code/build in the real world.
>>544551661There used to be. There were only a handful of universities, so you had to be good to get into one. Then every college became a university offering Mickey Mouse degrees to procrastinators. Even our finest universities have fallen now.
This >>544552479 but it started 60 years ago, not 10 year ago.Going back as far as WW2, draftees who had a college degree were made officers; those who didn't have degrees were made private.After the war, all of the grunts who saw this happening (as well as the college educated getting the best jobs post war) raised their kids with the belief that a college degree with the key to opening most jobs (and, for a while, it was).Then college was democratized. People were allowed to take on debt to fund their education, which means that college was no longer a place for only the rich and highest of classes.At first it worked, because only a few were taking on the risk of debt for college (or only a few could get the loans in the first place). But as more and more people got into college (and as standards were lowered to keep the money rolling in), college stopped being about the smartest people moving up, but about a filter for those who had the means to attend in the first place.As far as the results, it goes back to my belief that the widespread distribution of unearned status symbols not only degrades both the recently issued symbols, but those of the past.So, if you gain status by being the first on your block to own a cadillac, you gain less status if you buy one when most of your neighbors have one; and eventually you loses status if you're the only person on your block which DOESN'T have one.In this case, by flooding the world with people who are degreed by luck or circumstances instead of strictly by talent, you call into question everyone else who has graduated from the same university. (this is also what brings forth the idea/question brought on recently about seeing a DEI pilot of an airplane)

>>544551661You can't be that smart when you go into giga debt for a meme degree, earn shit income while living in a broom closet for very high rent. Smart people can adapt to their environment and change their strategies, but many degree chasers are just npc's who can't think outside the simulation
>>544551661Depends. Maybe 30 years ago there was a correlation but they had to dumb college down because of all of the women and browns that attend now. I'm going back to finish my degree right now and holy shit it's so easy.
>>544553133yes but college was always expensive, relative to the spending power of the average earner. So, in the 1800's for example, very few of your college students were the children of farmers (who never had excess money); unless they were very smart and had the sponsorship of some patron>>544552996I have a problem with your image; as it tends to play into the kind of unearned classism that this thread is talking about.So, if someone with a genders studies degree is debating a construction worker with 4 kids:> they see their degree as the mark of their own expertise on any subject that might be debated> they see the construction workers unwillingness to accept at face value anything they say as an example of Dunning-Kruger> and if the genders studies degree holder keeps losing debates, they self-diagnose with imposter syndrome; and continue to tell themselves that they're still right in spite of everything.
>>544551661Yet she isnt smart enough to know that the more degrees a woman has, the higher her chance of dying alone.
>>544551661The science journal Science published a study that suggested the common college-graduate IQ has dropped roughly to 100. Libshits got so mad at this that they pulled the study. Roughly 20 years ago roughly 114 was the average.t. 116
>>544552856She's a retarded gorilla faced nigger. Why would you assume she's in the top 13%? She literally just told you she's more retarded than 86.5% of the population and you need try to correct her? mysoginist racist asshole!
Im 32 and back in community college for an associates degree in math. It's just an excuse to keep living with my parents and avoid wagecucking. I've spent around 4k over 8 months so basically it's like paying rent for 500 a month. I'll get my bullshit math associates degree and then probably go back to wagecucking or kill myself because I don't have another 80 grand to finish a bacehlors in anything.
>>544553867
>>544552950You would feel comforted by that fact, but the vast majority of PhDs are awarded by "reputable" institutions, since lesser institutions can't support many graduate students. I went to a top level university in my field and I feel embarrassed by the people who I graduated alongside. >>544551661A correlation, but less than you would hope.

>>544554570Nigger repeated 1st grade.
>>544554459The difference in graduation rates between whites+asians and browns alone would be enough to create an IQ correlation. At least as of 2019, the last time I taught, college level chemistry still filtered sub-100 IQ people decently.

>>544551726>>544554488Fucking obviously it is what are we even talking about, and furthermore if a high IQ girl with a degree doesn't want her kids to be retarded bums she'd avoid having them with someone who doesn't have one too

>>544551661well most retards are uneducated theres that
>>544555298desu the bigger issue in the statistics is that 50% of PhDs are going to US non-residents.

Now that the country has been destroyed by delusional leftists' hyper-politicizing of everything in society, especially fucking colleges... Now college is actually inversely proportional with "intelligence" (sanity, lucidity, wisdom, objectivism/realism, logic, etc).
>>544554138>You would feel comforted by that factWhy would I be comforted by the continued destruction of my nation and its institutions?
>>544552479This was debunked
>>544551661degrees have lost their value since they are now easy to obtain
>>544551661This has to break at some point, right?People can’t keep putting higher education on a pedestal while also claiming everyone is stupider and everything has been dumbed down but also earning degrees.
College was at one time for the cognitive elite. You’d have to speak Latin or you weren’t even a candidate.Now it’s a joke, and basically a big business. They force every semi-retarded goy to pay a fortune for that certificate, or you can’t really even get a job. Other than a place to get wasted and watch sports for 4 years, it’s useless.Companies should train their own people, like the military. It’s become an absolutely poisonous liability now days, ideologically captured indoctrination camps people pay a fortune for.It’s got to be completely gutted and rebuilt in a sane manner.
>>544551661Depends; in New Zealand, until recently, medical admissions carried an IQ and psychometric test for admission.Some degrees have higher average IQs when you sample that particularly, but there might not be many studies on that.As in, you can only get a PhD, even in STEM, if you have an IQ threshold? No, that's false; anyone can do it. It's about showing up and doing minimum work for a long time.Education is cool, but you do it for your own sake and access to smart researchers/teachers who can inform and guide you, nothing else.
>>544556793I got a degree to be a physical therapist assistant after 7 months of classwork (2 year degree, 1st year prereqs, then 7 months studying, then 5 months clinicals). Mind you it was the most intense 7 months ever, but they shoved a football field of info down my throat and there was no way I remembered even 25% of it. The first year of being a PTA was pure unbridled imposter syndrome as I was expected to treat endless hoards of patients with every weird specific injury that I knew absolutely NOTHING WHATSOEVER about (there's no time to research beforehand). Had a guy come in who's note said he had tennis elbow. Well this dude comes up to me with a wrist brace on talking about how he tore his TFCC and I had to fucking Google what that mean while listening to him speak. My laptop was not facing him. Let me tell you dude, I am the last person to flex my knowledge. I have been told by several therapists that I'm doing just fine but imposter syndrome is draining the fuck out of me because I have to smile at these patients and pretend like I know everything while praying they don't ask too specific of a question.
>>544557992>Companies should train their own people, like the militaryAt least in the US, court interpretations of (((disparate impact))) mean you can't filter people for jobs based on anything that isn't 100% directly relevant to job competence. So colleges became a place to offload the work of filtering people on IQ and follow-through... until eventually they watered those down in the name of equality, too.>>544557596Your post seemed to imply that the issue didn't come from the top universities in the first place. In my experience in the US, the higher ranked the school, the more of a joke it is. The only professors I had that cared at all about enforcing basic academic discipline and conduct were in community colleges, ironically, the the further up I climbed, the less people cared. If you only want to do research in the first place and view teaching as an unwanted responsibility, and you get punished for trying to actually grade anything to a decent standard, you are just going to go with the flow and pass the retards.
>>544551661It used to be but not now. The fact that people are so uncritical that they all sheepishly march into unis is proof of this. If you were really intelligent you wouldn't be getting into a lifetime of debt for a do nothing degree like everyone else. I mean it doesn't work and yet people still keep going. That's insanity.

>>544551661>Is there any correlation between college degrees and intelligence?Not anymore>grouped by decades from 1939 to the most recent one beginning in 2019. The data sets reviewed show an approximate decline of 0.2 points in the IQ of university students per year, falling to a current IQ of 102,https://www.icns.es/en/news/the_intellectual_quotient_of_university_students_plummetsThe IQ of college attendees is at 102 which is dead average which means there are literally retarded people in college right now. All you have to do is promise to pay the schools and they'll give you fun daycare for years. It draws in short-term thinkers like honey and fucking flies.>Pro-tipPeople insecure about their intelligence are the most motivated to collect degrees. Any foreigner with foreign-language fluency can pick up English, sit through some humanities courses, and suddenly be qualified to be a professor of whatever-country's language.
Most of these people have an overinflated view of themselves. eg I used to date a music teacher who had a masters in music. Because I never had more than an associates degree she always assumed she was smarter than me. Yeah she was smart in music but a total retard with everything else, particularly money and how to actually market her business. We broke up cause she didnt want to listen to me and my financial planning.Its 6 yrs later and she is 33, had her car repossessed, lost her business, evicted from apartment, now living at home with her parents and im retired and have two rental properties. Good job retard. That masters degree in starvation really helped.
>>544551661Yes, and no. Any low IQ nigger can get a degree from a backwater state university and call themselves intelligent.But having a degree is the bare minimum, I mean, you faggots on /pol/ have at LEAST a bachelor's right?
>>544551661Women believe that science tells us what we should do. Men take more of societal liabilities and aim to do the right thing; if there isn't anything good to do, they will lay down their lives.

>>544551661This is also a part of sinicization, which is the general political force post 2019; if you don't think like a selfish assimilator and trust all the social engineering, future discounting, and progressive dogma, then you will find yourself increasingly barred from making a meaningful contribution.
>>544553547>unearned classismthat's exactly what's at play.>how smart could you be, you don't even have a bachelors
If you can't get the job without the piece of paper, then it doesn't matter what your IQ is- you must get the piece of paper to get the job.
>>5445516615% of American adults with a college or university degree read at or below a 3rd grade level.
>>544552400Yeah, unfortunately the system selects for attributes like pride, the will to benefit from racist policies, lack of integrity, and materialistic selfishness.>>544552479White men are generally not only smarter, they are more willing to share what they know, kind, generous.Think about what the future is going to look like when they pass all the ethnic identity politics bags into any positions of leadership or importance, not to mention the generally vindictive, uncharitable, liberal-left silver spoon white women.
>>544552645Women are not capable of moral judgement.
>>544558858>But having a degree is the bare minimum, I mean, you faggots on /pol/ have at LEAST a bachelor's right?It's not 2011 anymore. Even a bachelor's is too expensive to justify for most people. As good as it would be to just get a bachelor's degree and then sit in whatever mediocre job, the mediocre whatever-job market is pretty saturated. Almost every college path is saturated except for nurses and doctors, because all the money is concentrated into old peoples' hands and they live to consume state-of-the-art medical care so they can watch cable TV until they're 100.I talked to one guy (white and smart enough) who got a bachelors in programming/physics. He has "six years of programming" with him and he told me "not even retail is hiring." But that's near some tech hub where everyone working in anything tech-related probably has ten+ years of on-the-job experience. Businesses love to expand as much as possible and then squeeze out the actual talent maybe because work spoils the work environment.
>>544552727There are smart women who went to college mind you, but in general they will acquiesce to the leftist social engineering.
>>544558858Nope and I got the normal excel monkey office job regardless, surprised people need to go into debt for THIS
>>544559555My associates was $6k and my bachelors was $20k. Everything after, I got paid for. $26k for a lifetime of not being treated like you are a mentally disabled negro is worth it.
>>544551661There's an obvious, large and well-documented correlation between achieving certain degrees and intelligence. But that doesn't tell you what the relation between the two is.
>>544551661Some guy with an HVAC business is surely seething he won't be able to marry into $300k worth of student loan debt
>>544552969Yeah, obviously higher education needs to be an institution that's free to attend but difficult to get into. Rich or poor would be more thankful for the opportunity to study what they're good at and not turn it into this social engineering political tool.I think in general there are more people nowadays who are, "good enough", to do well in college.

>>544556793It's a real psychological phenomenon; skilled positions are very demanding, it's not narcissistic to doubt yourself, in fact it's the emotional part of being able to learn, gain wisdom, etc, which are traits / qualities completely opposite of narcissism.
>>544559736> $26k for a lifetime of not being treated like you are a mentally disabled negro is worth itAgreed. I might take it further. Instead of begging for the opportunity to obey some fucking clown in his clown world organization, just employ myself and run my own business.

I used to know a girl who thought she was all that because she was getting a phd. She basically cried her way through her masters, ostracised all of her friends, dropped out of her phd because she couldn't cry her way through it and ended up an actual prostitute and OF whore.She later used those degrees for a themed ppv on OF, dressed in her grad gown holding her degrees while showing her cunt. She was still claiming her intellectual superiority, despite selling her body while holding those degrees.

>>544560675
>>544560864how accurate is "justified"?
>>544551661Honestly IQ is kind of a meme stat. Believe me when I say there are some absolute retards that managed to get through college and somehow also test for high IQ as someone that went to a higher end school.That being said, there was a study done on college major vs how they vote (I wish I could find the picture of it), but they found that while overall every degree favored voting left, the more difficult the degree was the more right leaning the votes were when compared to other degrees (So like STEM degrees were more likely to vote right than art degrees).
>>544559944Thinks going to college makes you cultured. She was forced to take a couple "breadth" classes. Memorized shit for a test she quickly forgot and cranked out a term paper the night before it was due. A cultured person reads because they want to, not because they had to. Nothing prevents blue collar from going to the library. Its more likely she's afraid of being embarrassed by being out shown by a non-graduate and doesn't want to take the risk.PhD here. Some of the dumbest people I have ever met have degrees. Had graduate courses in Milton and philosophy but my "culture" came from seeking out stuff on my own
>>544559944Don't worry, when she dates some three degree hipster cuck she'll get the ick the first time she sees he doesn't know how to fix a door hinge or something.Also you know full well that most college kids nowadays lack basic world knowledge, they're scrolling social media and watching Netflix. They obviously Support The Latest Thing but none of them could explain any details when pressed on it. Not even talking about DEI niggers either, it's completely retarded to expect some modern college graduate white girl in her twenties to be some high culture afficionado besides liking to spend her parents money on stuff that shows she comes from a rich family if that's the case.
>>544551661Believe it or not, book smarts are not all you need to survive.
>>544551661Yes, but the strength of the correlation depends on major and institution.
When you breathe through your nose, your nostrils will occasionally shut and open you actually alternate between which nostril you breathe through. Scientists know this but they don't know why.When you breathe through your mouth your lungs both fill up and empty simultaneously. But your left nostril is actually linked to your left lung and your right nostril is linked to your right lung (doctors destroy this sometimes which probably causes "empty nose syndrome"). In your body's ideal resting state, you alternate using left lung and then right lung back and forth, and this switch happens when the nostril you breathe through switches. This is second paragraph literally beyond medical science's understanding if you want to know how dumb the people in charge of your health are.
>>544551661I will say if you guys just want A JOB always just do healthcare. There is basically zero way you can fail at this. Robots will never replace nurses just nursing assistants. Lawyer might be an upgrade for some of you but its going to get insanely competitive now. I would say lawyers will find a way to engineer a ban on AI lawyers or robots too because they are never letting that happen. Robots engineering, and astrophysics or whatever can get you into commercial space.Everything else is vaya con dios tier now. We have reached a point where college is only for the elitist of the elites again or else you put your life into great risk.
>>544551661ok but if he didnt even graduate high school and he doesnt know his place that is super fucking annoying. Listen to your intellectual superiors.

AI lawyer is already banned because the word is out and nobody practicing will risk their job over it.Theoretically you could slap a chatbot on an existing legal database but trusting it with anything is asking for trouble. There's either precedent to go by or no precedent but that all depends on human judgement no matter how arbitrary. Technical legal arguments rely on a blend of historical knowledge, creative thinking, and guessing at a judge's discretion. Meanwhile robots ""hallucinate"" third arms on people all the time>artificial intelligence does not care about you or anything else and it will betray you given enough chances>artificial intelligence should not be trusted with anything actually important and is therefore disposable
>>544551661I know 2 gals that wont date until they get their PHD meme
There was, but not anymore. In fact, going to a higher ranked school or obtaining a PhD is pretty much a pseud/midwit signal. I mean, think about how retarded you have to be now to think it is a good idea to go to Cornell or to spend 10+ years getting a PhD. Nobody actually competent would do either. They might at most go to a large flagship or a private equivalent like Notre Dame or Vandy and end with a master’s degree at the most.
I actually can’t believe anyone who graduates from a good school with high grades or advanced degrees is intelligent. I mean, many of you have been to university as I have right? Wasn’t it apparent within a few months that it was a joke and that the sensible thing to do would be to either leave or just do the bare minimum?

>>544551661Maybe there is. Maybe not. Does it matter? People with degrees don't save their country and society and people in it from being destroyed or repressed by domestic terrorist criminal government and zionist scum, or fight against them. So, them having degrees is worthless. Doesn't matter one bit.
>>544558713>Women are denigrating men who arent as smart as them, and who make less money than them, calling them losers and incelsgoing to kike slave indoctrination/production factories and the "edjewcation" one gets there and embracing that like a good slave is not smart ...and these foids aren't smart at all ,a dumb man is way smarter than a "smart" woman, and how ironic the fact that all they can do is scream random words and seethe impotently like this....so much for being so "smaht","rich" wahmen.Amd about the rich part....are they even really rich in the sense they live like a elite ...not at all ...even then they're a pathetic slave to actual elites who just shower them occassionally with the money gifts.
>>544551661I've talked to a lot of girls off /r9k/ and /soc/ and they all had degrees, some multiple. They were also all insane. Many fell for the learn2code meme and were unemployed. So no I don't think so.
>>544563038>what can one doOther things. Even now, most people in the world do not go to college. You don't actually HAVE to. You CAN do other things. Do you WANT to?
true is, education is the best predictor of future income. Degree level is also the best predictor of marriage, the higher you go the more likely you are to marry. Women are actually now more homogamous (marrying equally) rather than hypergamous (marrying up) than any time in history, they simple have more degrees now so they are unobtainable for degreeless males
>>544563157>Other things.yeah, like box mover in warehouse competing with brown peopledo YOU want that?
>>544563306I do that. it's pretty chill actually
>>544563306Or trades. Or entrepreneurship. You sounds like you don't want to be responsible for steering the course of your own life, and instead go with the popular flow. Which is fine. Most people do that. But you should acknowledge that that's what you're doing, as opposed to other things which you choose not to.
>>544563368literally whyi get if you couldnt do anything else in life but why would one choose this
>>544563486Perhaps to avoid >>544562725.
>>544563560fair, i get thatbut not everyone can make in as an entrepreneur and the trades are becoming too popularuniversities suck but at least once you get out of that hellhole you can have a career
>>544551661Trades are now useless>>544563828>>544563828>>544563828
>>544563838So you acknowledge that there are other options and that you do not want to take them, unlike other people who do.
>>544552880>I know males like this too, even in engineering. They think they’re hot shit because they have le piece of paper from some mid-tier shit hole university but they get mogged by home hobbiest types that actually know how to code/build in the real world.Truth. I'm a very senior infosec pro for a big well known tech company. None of the highest skilled guys in the department have a degree. We're all very well educated, but it's all self taught and most of us started it as a hobby in our teens. People who have a natural curiosity and love to constantly learn make the best tech pros. We do it because we enjoy the intellectual challenge. It's like a game. If i won the lottery, I'd still do the work because I enjoy it. I'd just do it someplace where I never had to interact with jeets ever again. t. will make $380k this year, 100% remote
>>544556793>Imposter syndrome is a narcissistic humblebrag people use to fish for compliments and validationFound the Dunning Kruger idiot.
>>544559398compare to 30% without a degree who cant reada nation of retards>>544563284it is also a question of discipline
>>544551738>>544551661
>>544551661There is but a firm handshake and a good interview means more
>>544564045maybe you are right, maybe i am the NPC i wish i could become the businessman making millions but i dont think i have anything to offer
>>544551661It could be a measure for how stubborn someone is. The only question is what?
>>544558520>I have been told by several therapists that I'm doing just fine but imposter syndrome is draining the fuck out of meIt's tough anon, but you'll end up being one of the top therapists because you're self educating.
>>544563486>literally whypays the bills, no one bothers me, leaves me time to focus on my family and my hobbies and my 'real work' (writing) which does not pay the bills
>>544556793It isn't I have it and don't like getting compliments as it filters back into it. I suspect some black and women people will have it too with all the DEI hiring practices.

>>544552400the "out of 1000 people" section is broken on that site, no?wow... is the IQ bell curve so sharp?must be why retardation was 70
>>544556505>It's over, anon.The solution is more H1b workers from India saar!
>>544565046>is the IQ bell curve so sharp?The usual scoring scale has a standard deviation of 15 points.
>>544551661Depends on the degree.
>>544551661>Was there any historically?Yes, when women and browns weren't allowed to get them.
>>544552856I don't know how they decide on these thingsFor the ASVAB at least higher is better
>>544564613>It isn't I have it and don't like getting compliments as it filters back into it.Same. I've struggled with it my whole life, and it was a serious barrier to success when I was younger. As you get older, you develop a fuck-it-i-don't-care attitude that drives you through the fear. And I hate compliments. especially public compliments.
>>544565688https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PercentileTL;DR A percentile expresses the percentage of a group which does worse than the individual being described. E.g. someone at the 99th percentile does better than 99% of the population.

>bro I can train you super well in this skillset>trust me bro just show up here like twice this week for an hour or two>now write this paper lol>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>several years later>congratulations you're super genius now like clearly smarter than everyone else lol>don't forget to sign up for moreCollege is actually so pathetic if you think about it. Just like in gradeschool when everyone knows how smart Shayquanda is and she's still in 11th grade somehow.If you know literally nothing (thank you high school) then a bachelor's will round out your knowledge to a bare naive minimum, which is something.
There are college classes (history department) that teach you so little they change the entire grading format so your grade solely tracks your level of engagement with classroom discussions in various ways./pol/ is quick to blame race but the likely culprit is digital brainrot. Maybe don't give infants the movie tablet.
>>544551661No and nevercollege degrees are a measure of work ethic not intelligence
>>544568235Education can influence childhood, IQ, but it does not affect adult IQ at all.
>>544568235>Maybe don't give infants the movie tablet.Cool it with the anti-Semitism anon.
>>544568648>too much of what miggers think of as intelligent is just jewish trash
>>544560334
>>544568748>miggersWhy do you discord tranny shills use that word? No one knows what it means. We just ignore you like everyone has your whole life. It must be terrible to desire attention so much that you'd cut your dick off.
>>544560334kek
>>544568472IQ measures pattern recognition based on logical puzzles in images which in all fairness is a pretty good measure.Proper intelligence comes down to experience with the matter at hand. Someone who looks dumb as fuck can know what to do every time if that's what they've been doing for 20 years and they know every trick in the book. But would you trust them? Actually appearing intelligent is a different skill of somehow knowing what to say to people to please them however stupid they might be. The larger any enterprise becomes, as people get more specialized roles, the more important social skills (appearing intelligent) become, and the less important actually knowing what to do is.>did the institutions of man become too large????? how many people the government employ
>>544562563I used to work with a guy whose face looked a lot like that tranny faggot's. Very similar phenotype. He's also a major drunk. Probably gonna troon out soon as well.
>>544552400What?
>>544551661Well, they all have 100k+ in debt, id say they arent very intelligent going into lifelong debt for a piece of paper, how's the job search going BTW? Lol, never paying that shit off.
>>544569235Literally free in the first world. But nah, meme yourself into stacking shelves or giving yourself a beer gut and turbocancer to own the libs.
>>544569571Sounds like you need to import more indians if theres still jobs available, fucking racist
