You can convert a Wonderlic score to an IQ score by assigning an IQ of 100 to a Wonderlic score of 20. Each Wonderlic point above or below counts for about 2 IQ points.

Top 10% of the public =/= pretty sharp. This isn't me trying to sound like a douchebag, it's just that from my personal experience I would not call even close to 10% of the people I have encountered outside of my UG and LS sharp. And no, thankfully I have not seen "are you smarter than a 5th grader?"

Stop being so snide. I know you think that all lawyers besides yourself are dumbs and douchebags - you're just different that way. I guess I shouldn't have said "sharp." I guess that's really relative. I'm just pointing out that lawyers are up there in the IQ range.

This really isn't true. When I was in college, they sent me a jury duty summons and having this mentality, I just ignored it rather than calling them to tell them that I was out-of-state. They kept sending notices and eventually they sent me a court summons, and when I ignored that they fined me like $200. I only got out of it by proving that I wasn't in-state at the time.

I think if you picked random groups of ten individuals, and then took the smartest person out of each group you would usually get someone who was pretty on-the-ball and capable of a reasonable level of thinking. To be sure of getting genuine higher functioning you'd probably be looking at top 2% though.

Around 160 in childhood, based on some old and rather irrelevant test. 150 when I took the S-B at age 15. I don't know what my IQ is now; mid-140s, probably?

I didn't fail out of grad school. I bombed a final exam pretty badly, and that experience burned me, but I could've easily gone back to grad school if I had wanted to.

I still felt like a failure when I left academia, even though I was leaving for solid career reasons. Everyone goes through this; it's part of the academic indoctrination, that working in a university is the only acceptable thing to do with one's life and that to do anything else indicates that one couldn't hack it. Even people who leave grad school for successful careers have go through this sense of guilt and failure, as if they let the academy down, for a little while.

Reincarnation can be pretty scary. It's a lot more frightening than the Christian heaven. Many lives are very painful, and it doesn't necessarily rule out the possibility of annihilation: if all life is wiped out, what happens to us? Or, if all animals higher than cockroaches are wiped out, does that mean we come back as roaches?

I'd rather there be a heaven and eternal bliss immediately after my death, as mainstream modern Christians believe, but it somehow doesn't seem likely that such a thing can be achieved without a lot of work, the kind of work that takes hundreds or thousands of lifetimes to complete.

In any case, there's no way to evaluate or test whether or not eternal heavens or hells exist, because they're inescapable states out of which there is (probably) no communication, whereas reincarnation research is being done right now by reputable people, and there have been many encouraging findings.

As for annihilation, I don't find that prospect terrifying. I would be depressed if I found out there was nothing after death, but there isn't anything inherently scary about nonexistence.

Everyone goes through this; it's part of the academic indoctrination, that working in a university is the only acceptable thing to do with one's life and that to do anything else indicates that one couldn't hack it."

This is kind of a stuffwhitepeoplelike attitude. When I told my family that I was dropping out with a masters to go to law school the response was basically "wtf took you so long, jackass." My parents would much, much rather have me be a lawyer than a professor, because they want me to get rich (I don't have the heart to tell them that lawyers are middle class.)
