Oh well, the important thing is, they were all successful.

You consider George Bush's work successful?

Are you referring to my post?
I never said thats not successful, i was referring to his "work" while being the president.

[ninwa]

No, I was referring to kurrymuncher's post. Anyway, all happy said was that they are successful people.

[kurrymuncher]

I was also referring to his work. I wasnt criticising him about his status as the head of the world's only superpower.

Aww... Come on, surely to become president of the United States for 8 years is a great accomplishment?

in itself yes, but when you look at who he convinced to achieve such feat then you'll shrug.

Why would you shrug? Thats an even greater accomplishment.

Well back to the original topic, I'd say its a load of rubbish. Sure, you might improve your IQ based on dodgy IQ tests, but your innate intelligence is unlikely to get any better. Reason why I know this is because after doing so much UMAT training, especially in section 1 and 3, my IQ in those dodgy Facebook IQ tests was quite high (142 and 154) and I found I did them with ease, whereas in the past I wouldn't. So basically, it's quite easy to train yourself to do well in these things, especially the IQ tests that involve shape patterns, since that's a skill most people don't really practise except for in UMAT, and I assume that's one of the principles of IQ testing and why they have such strange methods rather than just testing maths and so on. However, like pretty much ANYTHING in life, practising it is definitely going to make it better, and eventually as I realised with UMAT, you'll just come to begin memorising different patterns and it no longer becomes a test of innate intelligence, but rather just a battle of rote learning, and this is the method I believe this guide might use since it's pretty fool-proof really, and results will show IN THE TESTS THEY TRAIN YOU UP FOR. But overall, by no means is having a higher IQ on certain tests going to make you any smarter in other aspects of life anyway, since I haven't noticed any benefit that came out as a result of being able to spot stupid shape patterns, except for the ability to spot stupid shape patterns. But well, if you want bragging rights, go for it (warning: bragging about IQ is NOT going to get you any chicks).
