[quote=Anonymous][quote]PP: I am 95% certain you are incorrect. You take the best athletes, and they will excel at the sport they are prepped for.[b] I can assure you no amount of prep is going to make me an NBA player. No amount of prep is going to make me an NFL player. [/b]The thing is the natural athletes with the desire to exceed will exceed at their chosen sport. How else can you explain the athletes that devote most of their energy to one sport, but can also play a second sport at a high level....Bo Jackson comes to mind.

Similarly, there are people that are just smarted than other people. Training and prep can make the test scores look as good, and the evaluations look comparable. However, in the end, they will not be the intellectual leaders of society....they will not be the Albert Einsteins, the Steve Jobs (or Wozniak). [/quote]

I'll give you one up.  I am 99 % certain no amount of prep is going to make you an NBA player of football lineman.  Afterall, you are less than 6 ft 2 inches tall and are female.  There are biological constraints for the average female related to hormones (testosterone, growth hormone, estrogen, progesterone levels and the like) making your desire and uphill battle.  But, the average male will have a much better chance.
