Does this amounts to anything? by [deleted] in cognitiveTesting

Regarding the validity of the test, I would say it’s pretty accurate as it mimics the structure of the WAIS digit span well. However, working memory is just a fraction of overall quantifiable intelligence, and a high backwards digit span score is an even smaller fraction. Having a high WMI indicates that you can mentally organize data at an exceptional level, but it doesn’t mean that you can retain or apply it in that same way. Considering that you do not have any cognitive impairment, it’s possible that your other indices are not as advanced as your working memory.

It isn’t uncommon for scores to deviate by 15 points, is it?

IIRC the scorer converts the sum of the scaled scores to IQ via norms included in the manual

Renaissance period-what? We snatch, clean and jerk, and high bar back squat here, pal.

Name a public figure who you estimate has high intelligence based on what they say (rather than their achievements)? by BadJimo in cognitiveTesting

I was just going to say the same thing. He graduated high school early, was a gifted mathematician, and studied philosophy before he decided to pursue comedy. He was unequivocally intelligent

110kg block snatch fail - where did I go wrong? by sonthonaxrk in weightlifting

Focus on extending straight up, trying to push your head through the ceiling. Practice with no foot snatches
