[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wtf? None of the private schools ask, or care about how high a kids IQ is. And believe me, IQ isn’t everything. [b]I grew up with someone with a high IQ, and they failed miserably at life. It doesn’t automatically give you some magical life. It’s all how you choose to use it.[/b]

I often find that the most intelligent people are the ones who don’t brag about it, are humble and just generally cool to be around. They’re don’t put on airs.[/quote]

This is such a true statement, and I remind myself of this every time one of my kids doesn't do well in school. The most successful guy I know went to some no-name school in the Midwest. And, my close friend who aced his Ivy undergrad, Harvard Law and Harvard Business School is a complete failure.

There are so many factors.[/quote]

Sure, but being smart and going to Harvard will make it much more likely to achieve success. Also, it depends on you define success. The richest people I know have bachelor degrees from decent schools, were special operation marines or seals and got out of the military and became very successful investment bankers. I know Harvard law grads that are feds, but are happy and consider themselves successful…[/quote]
