In my mind, I wouldn't worry about who can perform better on a piece of paper, but who has the ability to recognize situations and is more prepared to deal with them effectively.
I have to agree with this....... what I felt about it was the test should have been given to more than just 17/18 yr olds. Give the test to a variety of age groups 20/30/40 etc. I know what I thought and how I acted at the age of 18 is nothing how I am now. I was nuts and a firecracker back in the day making the worse choices as most of us have probably did the same. I also don't konw what type of test that was given but believe me my ex is dumber than a doorknob and my present sig other is smarter than life itself.

I won't let it get to me I don't know this guy and don't agree or believe his test results
