Don’t believe all the nonsense here. People don’t like IQ tests because nobody wants to admit they’re not the smartest person in the world. There’s plenty of evidence showing that these tests correlate to academic and professional success. Obviously IQ is just one of a dozen traits that are important for success though so nobody should expect it to be the only (or even the largest) predictor of success, but it’s a very real thing.

The most common IQ test measures perceptual reasoning, working memory, processing speed, and verbal comprehension. It translates well to an ability to learn. It can show what you **may** be better at. For example, if your working memory is impaired doing a job like translation could be harder. Doesn’t mean impossible, just harder! (I give these tests, I do clinical psych!)
