I think this has been distorted a bit to make some people feel good.

I’m pretty sure electricians are way smarter than a cashier 😅

My IQ just dropped 50 points watching this video. And another 50 when I read the comments. 🤣🤣🤣

For decades in the US the average IQ of college graduates was 115 which is one standard deviation from the mean of 100 and is at the 68th percentile of the general population. Based on that fact alone this video is very distorted as it is mathematically impossible for that many clerks and cashiers to have IQ scores higher than college graduates. This is a feel good video that’s not accurate.

I have measured my IQ a few times with the Mensa test, I get between 125-130. I actually struggled with education as I easily get distracted by things I find more interesting so I ended up with boring jobs I never really enjoyed at all. So at one point I just left my job, sold my house and used the capital to buy run down houses that I repaired myself mostly, sold them or kept them to rent out. Now I am self thought plasterer, plumber, electrician, carpenter and whatever needs to be done I will usually do it. I also repair watches, cars and motorbikes. My life is now great, but was awful in those dead end jobs.

Accountants are not smarter than engineers.

Cashiers 116???
Nurse 119??!?
School Teachers 123🤣

The maker of the video must have a very high IQ also to invent such imaginative figures!

Odd that an unskilled laborer is represented by a guy with a hard hat and a clip board. That is usually an engineer....go figure

Says teachers have a average IQ. my teacher: a narwal is a mythical creature

[SadoKurosaki]

average iq on college campuses is 110-115. Average IQ in general is 85-115 SOOOoooo over half of people have it hard in a society where all our uneducated jobs are sent to china

[surpwer]

This is beyond disrespectful. People are in a job for countless reasons

[jasonjase]

I had my IQ professionally tested
(I thought I was kind of dumb) I have an IQ of 139 . Well after further investigation I also found out that I am dyslexic.

[cavok]

I feel so stupid for even watching 30 seconds of this. I failed the test.

[accidentsafe]

Mine is 119 and I watch YouTube for a living.

Mechanical engineers literally build Plane Engines, Automobile Engines, Turbines, Boilers, Robotics with AI, Mechatronics, Rocket Engines and so on... But they are less intelligent than lawers and accountants and doctors. What d hell.

[d.rabbit]

I find this whole IQ praise to be interesting. In life, it's all about you applying the information and skills to maximize outcomes. 200 years ago, men with IQ's of 135 was out plowing fields with men with IQs of 85. In that environment, the guy with the 82 IQ may have more skills and experience at farming than the savant level man. (Making him a genius in that particular field of discipline.)

[goodnight]

I identify as the 80 IQ. Maybe 70. I'm pretty functional but I can never focus so that knocks off 10 points. If I took an iq test I would probably start dissociating and be unable to do the test correctly, thus receiving a number that will encourage some people who is under it to go the way of the dinosaurs.

[_MemesDays_]

that's quite unfortunate, looks like I'm stuck as a factory packer/sorter.

[vivekkrishna]

If someone doing lower jobs it's doesn't mean that he has low IQ, its simply can be his Obedience 😠😠😠😠

[yeshuamedrano]

Although a bit more accurate towards the higher I.Q professions the early examples are 100% incorrect. The distribution of high I.Q individuals is way to low for that to work.
