(5,327 posts)"According to the website, which is called IQ-Test.net, the main evidence for Trumps massive IQ is the mere fact that he got admitted to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania."
A Wharton professor called trump the dumbest goddamned student he ever had the displeasure of meeting.

(56,828 posts)was likely because UPenn was hoping for a nice fat donation check from Freddy Trump
Trump was at Fordham - a pretty good university - out of high school, but nowhere near as competitive to get into as Penn.
Current US News rankings for National Universities
Penn - tied for #6, average SAT score 1500
Fordham - tied for #74, average SAT 1346 (probably much lower in Trump's Day - maybe by 100-200 or so points?)
when a decimal matters ... 15.6
there, fixed it for ya ...

I was gonna say 1.56

(6,831 posts)Until such time as trumpie actually submits to an IQ testing, no one should promote his intelligence beyond his shoe size.
What utter tripe.

(5,914 posts)A young scientific genius, he was on the threshold of a cure for his buddy Superboy's kryptonite allergy, when Superboy accidentally destroyed Lex's lab trying to save his life. Lex lost his hair in the accident, and he became Superboy's worn enemy for the rest of his life.
Lex Luthor got "dumbed down" over the years. ALL DC characters got "dumbed down" to a certain extent, so as not to alienate decreasingly literate comic book purchasers.

(14,961 posts)about this, over and over. I am very curious about how they are programmed. A part of me wonders if his "impeachment war room", being ran by, Bannon, Gorka and Jason Miller, don't come into play somewhere.

(22,976 posts)-Obama tapped his phones. Evidence? NONE.
-He was once the greatest baseball prospect in NY state. Evidence? NONE.
-Hes a mega billionaire. Evidence? NONE.
-Claims Putin didnt interfere in the 2016 election. Evidence? Putins alleged word, i.e., NONE.
-Said his phone call(s) with the Ukrainian President was perfect, repeatedly. Evidence? NONE.
-Washington Post Fact Checker (as of 12/16/2019): President Trump has made 15,413 false or misleading claims over 1,055 days. Correcting evidence? NONE.
Everything about this idiot is false, fake, untrue, a LIE.

(5,914 posts)The thought of the easily distracted Donald Trump sitting still for a test of ANY kind is thoroughly laughable. He would flunk a urine test, for crying out loud.

(48,955 posts)I was in a phd program more exclusive than Warton Business school, and I have never assumed an IQ in that range. I think the same story (if it is the same one I read, and discounted/laughed at) ranked multiple presidents IQs, and Obama's was lower (despite Harvard Law school admission, and despite his rising to the prestigious editor role of Harvard Law Review.
https://www.nytimes.com/1990/02/06/us/first-black-elected-to-head-harvard-s-law-review.html
The Harvard Law Review, generally considered the most prestigious in the country, elected the first black president in its 104-year history today. The job is considered the highest student position at Harvard Law School.
The new president of the Review is Barack Obama, a 28-year-old graduate of Columbia University who spent four years heading a community development program for poor blacks on Chicago's South Side before enrolling in law school.
But sure - just getting admitted to U Penn (as an undergraduate transfer student) = a higher IQ. /s

(15,286 posts)the IQ test for Trump or who was paid to fix the score. Trump doesn't read and has the attention span of a gerbil. I doubt he could even sit through a standardized test, let alone score well on one.

(53,342 posts)Mr Trump was a student at Wharton when it was possible to derive and (sic) accurate IQ test scores from known SAT scores, the website claims. Given the usual requirements for admission to a top school like Wharton. I estimate that Mr. Trump has a 156 IQ at the minimum.
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

This psychologist doctor-type came up to me, a big, strong doctor, tears streaming down his face, and he said, Sir, I cant tell you what your IQ is because my chart stops at just three numbers. Wow. Nice!
