I was born in poverty in one of the poorest states. My iq when last tested was still 132 and it wasn't magically lower because of said poverty. People just want to deny genetics
As was I, my friend. Two junkies high as fuck conceived me, and didn't stop doing the drugs while gestating and I was raised in similar Southern poverty as you (I believe I remember such). And while I don't remember the number, when I was tested in the 1st grade they wanted to jump me to the 7th grade, which I can only imagine means it was up there.
Its also why I don't put much stock in IQ beyond the "mentally retarded" differentiation. Its so genetic heavy that its almost useless beyond narcissism and bragging rights.
Lol yeah IQ test can be gamed. I think it's really useful for determing general ability at an early age and whether someone is barely functional in society. You are remembering correctly. I'm from a few hours north of you
