I vaguely remember taking the SATs. I didn't study. There were kids in line doing last minute flashcards and I was stoned and anxiois to gwt it overwith. It seemed easy enough, but I still kick myself to this day because I remember one I obviously got wrong. It asked what would inhibit sound more, metal blinds or thick curtains. I chose blinds just thinking about the resonance and forgetting the question. I scored just over 1400.
Standardised
Aptitude
Test
High score means you think like a standardised person instead of a creative or smart or unique person
When they list a series of numbers and give you choices about which list of numbers complete the series then all answers can be justified in the lack of proper context
They do not provide any context as to which completion is better than the other
However if someone is familiar with the thinking pattern of the test writer or memorised the study guides one can get the correct answer not through being a better mathematician or scientist but through understanding social norms
@shortstories A higher IQ person knows this and still answers "correctly" to get a high score. That's higher order strategic thinking, not throwing the game on principle -- that's nigger conservatism.
@nomebullyyou
There are an unlimitted number of high degree polynomials that complete all answers in the number series while also satisfying the initial conditions
