Boys, we all know GCSE's count for shit. Many people at my school are dumb shits yet managed to acheive at least 5 A+'s due to outstanding teaching and work ethic. IQ tests are the way forward. Thoughts elcule??

(ps hahahaha)

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

But IQ's aren't done on averages are they? It's a measure of ability, so the highest one will always be the correct one as it shows that you are capable of acheiving it. If you don't, you can legitimately say that there were mitigating factors, such as tiredness.

You don't give up. So if i took 100 IQ tests and picked the best one then that would be my IQ? Of course it woudn't, it depends on the questions you get.

True, but in taking one you have to assume that IQ tests are standardised so that the questions are irrelevent, otherwise they would just be gimics.

Of course, they probably are gimics, hence you-know-who getting 150....lol

I think most free ones are most likely gimmicks, I'm not happy with being worse than Lampard. :lol:

Stop being so narrow-minded 7seven7. It it a well-known fact he has a higher IQ than Carol Vorderman, which places in within the top 0/1% of the population I believe.
All IQ tests demonstrate is how good you are at IQ tests and I don't think that you can use his GCSE's as a mark of having such a high IQ as, for one, the better the school you go to the more assistance you are given to achieve high marks. Seriously, I know probably 3 people personally who'd have an IQ as high as that which Lampard allegedly has and they are a hell of a lot smarter than him, to a ridiculous level. Now you can call that narrow minded and say that I don't know the guy personally, but I've seen more than enough of his interviews to make the assessment that he doesn't have an IQ as high as you believe he has. If IQ tests were reliable then you would recieve the same maeks every time you take them. You do realise as well that private and grammer schools have classes set aside so that you can improve your IQ score? I know this because around 50% of my friends went to private schools and they've told me this. The only person I can think of in English football with an IQ that high is Wenger and I'm not sure he'd neccesarily have an IQ because to be in the top 0.1% would mean you'd have an IQ of about 145 and thats huge. There is absolutely no way that I will accept that Lampard has an IQ that high. Now not for one minute do I think the guy is a moron, he clearly is fairly smart, but your having a laugh if you think that he's as smart as my old university lecturers, you can't hide an intellect that high unless your uneducated and Lampards been given a far better education than most people.

Yh I'd agree with that. But I think that if you take evidence from a range of indicators - GCSE's, IQ, A-levels, degree of eloquence/articulation, degree's etc - then the overall picture would probably be fairly representative. That said, Alan blaady Sugar would fall down at all those categories, and I'm told he's as shrewd as they come.

Just because someone is shrewd / good with money, doesn't make them intelligent.

True.

Actually probably more of a useful skill to be honest.
