One event illustrating the difference in the intelligence between the two. Last year, I have a contractor installed a cat door in my apartment. In about 2 weeks, Robin learned how to use it both ways. On the other hand, Batman just learned how to use the cat door, one way just the other day. I am still hoping, he learned to use it both ways when the warm weather kicks in the next few months.
I kept wondering how many people are smart like Robin. how many are slow like Batman and How many are in the middle-just average. As a result of this observation and behavior from my 2 cats, I search on the IQ of Americans. Here's what I learned from my search.
Our analysis of the available data covering educational achievement and test scores found that the smartest U.S. state is New Jersey, and (sorry to this state) the dumbest one is Idaho.
New Jersey’s total score of 337.8 was safely ahead of No. 2 Utah, with its score of 324. Idaho had the lowest score at 79.5, with the next lowest being Oklahoma at 97.8. Among all states, the average score was 221, and 27 states scored above that mark. For Details visit, https://www.safehome.org/smartest-americans/
Conclusion: The vast, vast majority of Americans (83.9% in fact) fall between 85 and 145 IQ which is average to super genius. A fairly small portion of the population trails behind in the 55 to 85 category so I think we can safely conclude that the average American is a pretty smart cookie.
