[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Identical twins do not get same grades siblings from same set of parents would theoretically have same iq and therefore as accomplished in school, but they are not[/quote] Grades aren't the same as IQ. Everyone know the story about Albert Einstein flunking math in grammar school. IQ refers to the ability to learn and ease of learning not the use of that ability. Yes, IQ is inherited. Many other things play a role in it but smart parents usually create smart children, average parents create average children. Exceptions exist, of course, but it seems pretty clear at this point that intelligence is genetic. [/quote] genetics is only one part of the puzzle and not the determining factor[/quote]
