Yes, because your ability to recognize patterns is also linked to a bunch of other things such as figuring out problems, coming up with solutions, et cetera. So if you are stunted in this regard, that means you lack the ability to do certain things. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that a guy with an IQ of 110 is dumber than a guy with an IQ of 130. The latter just solves puzzles better, but the former could and will outdo the latter in other aspects. Determining how smart someone is based on their ability to recognize patterns is a highly flawed concept. If anything, it should be taken as an indicator of one’s recognition capabilities than anything else.IQ tests are designed to have certain questions that are super easy and specifically difficult ones throughout the test. If you can't solve the basic questions you 100% aren't smart. The military refuses to even hire anyone under 85 IQ. Its not a perfect metric but its very good within the average at predicting life out comes. Half of the IQ questions are designed so that an average 4th grader could comprehend and respond to them. If you don't have the compression power of a 10 year old at 20 you are pretty fucked
Yeah that's why I said try to go for the upper class educated classes in Africa. Go for people who are in the educated or elite top 10%.
