It's ironic how before the PhD student's little boasting session she praises the Harvard guy on the fact he's humble, which was (according to her) a sign of intelligence. So really she called herself unintelligent.
Which proves that her EQ is lower because she couldn't be self-aware enough to realize she wasn't being humble and all the things she was listing as intelligence.
maria’s arrogance and boastfulness about her phd and biotech career made it so clear that she* isn’t that emotionally intelligent and is not, in fact, all that aware of her surroundings.
Come on, we don't know these people in real life. You probably don't even know how YOU would behave if you walked into that room, in front of all these cameras. It must be really stressful and it's definitely not an everyday situation, I'm pretty sure none of these people were being their usual selves. I think we shouldn't get to judge their personality, much less emotional intelligence, based on one video
@@Departure-yz7ok wow she was the only one in the entire video with total arrogance and her score was awful... She showed up how really is,She showed up how really is, because the only one so mean was she.
Maria: "I am clearly the smartest one here." Also Maria: "I never would have imagined that this video about ranking intelligence would involve an IQ test."
I also love how she says "I work on biotech" "we make x,y,z". Which normally equates to her being low level and doesn't actually create/come up with anything and just does mundane lab stuff that any monkey could do
@@Ryan-wx1biShe's probably a research scientist given her credentials, which is different from a lab tech. They make pretty decent money.... probably in line with software engineers.
The fact that Maria thought they were going to “look at social media” to determine who is the most intelligent is a pretty good indicator that she isn’t the most intelligent
That caught off guard so bad I started thinking maybe my iq is low for missing something here but Jesus I’m genuinely curious on how tf social media gets in the equation
She admitted her prejudice and acknowledged that it's not ok for her to judge people on their intelligence because of how they look. She could have worded it better or maybe she should not have said it at all but I really don't think she meant any harm.
@@koutsioj4762 that's fine, but for her to boast about her "high eq" and then do that just makes her seem like she has low eq, because most folks with basic social skills wouldn't say that out loud
@@fatimazafar8907 Depends. On a normal circumstance people wouldn't say that but the whole premise was judging each other's intelligence and since they talked about biases what she said fit the circumstance. In that context, it doesn't feel weird to me but to each their own.
Software developer = good at math = good at abstract thinking = #1 indicator of intelligence. Statistically, the highest IQ majors are math, physics, and philosophy (engineering and computer science are related to math & physics). Getting a PhD in biology takes a lot of patience, hard work, and reading/writing skills but only requires slightly above average intelligence. I know this because I have a Master's degree in biology and might also do a PhD
@@jaqsreyeah. And a lot of kids that go to college nowadays are like that. They think just cause they went to a good school that they’re automatically better than everyone else. Yet they come out of it with nothing more than a degree.
I didn't find her that bad. Come on guys, let's not be so toxic. I'm a college dropout myself so I get the whole thing about not being considered as smart just because you lack a degree. But not everyone who has a degree is cocky, and I think if you're very proud of your degree it's completely okay to brag about it a little bit sometimes
I found it strange that the PHD lady judged the social media guy based on his looks indirectly in front of everyone and considered her self to be highly intelligent in EQ lol
She said she didnt do that. Being activley aware of your bias (which everyone has) isnt bad. Acknowledging that you had a bias and are fighting it is better than what tyler did who just judged him straight out. People act like they dont have biases
But I think the argument is that if she were emotionally intelligent she wouldn't have called out the social media guy in front of everyone just to prove that she is emotionally intelligent
@completelynormalperson7077 Some people are much, much more biased though. The stupid ones tend to be the ones who don't catch their own. I think Tyler's matter of fact attitude got to Maria. Her body language and tone showed this for sure, but I'm honestly not sure if she realized she was explicitly showing this. Just seems funny if she didn't because she's aware of her surroundings, according to her, yet not herself...
I love the way they contrasted Maria inexplicably thinking they'd be looking at social media and being surprised with an IQ test with Tyler immediately saying "it was kind of expected".
Guy was quiet, respectful and humble the whole time, still got almost unanimously ranked #1 by the others, nailed his IQ test, then peaced out. Flawless performance.
@@rorys3980imo I wouldn't really say flawless. Sure, he didn't give any indication that he wasn't intelligent, but I feel like there were no proper indication that he was the most intelligent either (and let's not forget that he didn't win by a large margin.) It looked like the main reason why he was ranked high by others was because of the prejudice.
@@anhuro8558wdym he didn’t win by a large margin 😭 u clearly don’t know how iq tests are calculated LMFAOO. Intelligence is such a vague term, but he is clearly intelligent because he went to Harvard, he got a degree in consulting??Which means he definitely has a good memory and high eq as he’s constantly teaching and giving advice to others. he’s humble and has ambitions. he might’ve been voted for being asian, or he might’ve been voted because of his demeanour but in the end he had the highest score so we can assume he’s the most intelligent 🤓🤓🤓
Exactly lol also formal education is literally just a likelihood of the opportunities you’ve had (rich people have more, poor people have less) it’s really that simple and then you have obviously the outliers who are able to do something unlikely a lot of it is just luck and then yes a PhD just shows you’re able to preserve and keep going lol
One of my friends is getting his PhD at a well-known private university and getting a full-ride scholarship which is amazing-and part of the reason he was able to do so is because he’s really perseverant in life and in academics. Do I still have to help him with spelling? Yes. Is he good at math? Idk 🤷🏻♀️ but he’s getting his PhD 🤪
A big clue to Maria being last was that she kept saying she was the smartest out of everyone there. Typically the more you “know”, the more you realize you “don’t know”. She would understand that the other intelligent people in the room may be better at subjects or topics she is not, and that’s something to value, not something to feel threatened by.
This comment demonstrates “wisdom” which is an oft under appreciated form of intelligence. Definitely true that “smart” people do gain deeper understanding of how not smart we all are.
True but I feel like it’s not that we’re “not smart”, it’s that there’s so much to learn in each field. In higher education, almost everything is broken down into a science so that it can be researched. There’s just an endless amount of things to learn about the world (and universe). It’s also constantly changing and the way we study it is changing with new technology. Before exploring a career or topic, you feel like you’ve got it all figured out. Then you get into it and understand the range and how connected everything is as well as the variables that play a role. Especially when you study the origin or history. The universe is so vast. :-)
They say the smartest person in the room often thinks they’re not the most intelligent, and the least intelligent always thinks they are the most intelligent.
Sade made a reaction video where she claimed that the reason she (and others) were biased against him is because of his "views" which apparently didn't make the cut. I would assume it's some PC bullshit where he gave conservative vibes
@@bluecresc5804 In his first side interview he was already talking about judging Sean because people in his class who "wore neon colors" usually got lower grades.. Like mhm okay bud I can hear that dog whistle
If Maria possessed the emotional intelligence she claims, she would have refrained from boasting about her accomplishments in such a brash and excessive manner. That single moment propelled her from being perceived as a bit cocky to someone who is unbearably pretentious and will be immortalitzed forever as an internet meme.
i always feel so bad for people who are acting such a fool and u just know before even looking at the comments that they’re gonna get memed hard. i don’t feel bad for some people like those couple of asshole men in the button episodes who absolutely deserved to be blasted bc they sucked but people like maria obviously are just overcompensating for maybe never being enough when they were younger so had to accomplish big things to prove to themselves and others that they’re smart. i feel bad for her because this probably shattered the confidence she worked so hard to feign.
love how condescending it is to say "I saw you and had to tell myself not to judge anyone on their looks, maybe you're trying to throw me off", like literally just a roundabout way of saying "you look like you're stupid" Like the "maybe you're trying to throw me off" is like saying, "you look like you're trying to make me think your dumb" which is way more offensive than just saying someone looks less intelligent than you, but she said it as if she was being really nice by not judging.
like why even say it? isn't it a more high EQ move to keep some thoughts to yourself so as not to upset someone indirectly while making yourself look bad
Even the marine thought the same about the outfit, but he didn't say it infront of the group. Which is funny because that would make his EQ higher than Maria and he never even heard of EQ before.
honestly, if they took an EQ test too, girly would probably test low too. she gives off narcissistic and antagonistic vibes, i won't be surprised if she actually has low empathy for others that aren't like her.
@@AMan-xz7tx Being straightforward isn't necessarily an indication of high EQ, maybe even the opossite. And being coolheaded is only one of the many aspects of emotional intelligence. We really don't know almost anything about these people to accurately judge their emotional intelligence.
@@koutsioj4762 well I think I just don't know the right terms to describe it, and yeah you're right it's definitely more than that. I don't exactly know how to put it all into the right words, but people with high EQ just tend to behave and react in a specific way, and it's specifically the way that he presents what he says and himself that gives me those vibes. Again, no clue what exactly I'm talking about, but I just get that feeling from him.
The amount of irony involved in Maria telling the marine that he appears to have the lowest EQ is insane. That man was not only trained to control his emotions as part of his job requirements, but demonstrated absolutely no defensiveness and backlash toward the rest of them after getting nothing but insults from the rest of them while everyone else did.
He was an arrogant prick though. Hate military dudes. You signed up for this? Insane. And we all know the poorest ppl in the US make up the military- they aren't too concerned w intelligence. Just obedience
Controlling your emotions is not a military thing. Have you seen those guys? They're psychotic. Weird youre still in a head space where you glorify the military. This isn't 2001 lol
@@Hate2024but the test is bs. It isn't an indicator at all. True intelligence isn't rote memorization. The school system just proves who's normal and healthy and privileged. Not who's intelligent. You do not have to be smart to get a degree, just a good student. Youre just proving the test is bullshit lol
Her asking 'is there anyone upset with their ranking?' was definitely trying to bait our military dude. Glad he's got higher emotional intelligence and didn't feed in to her.
@@iminyourshed3327 True, I don't know why everyone was saying a military person would have low EQ. They have to be extremely resilient and handle pressure very well.
Btw Sade did a reaction video and mentioned that Tyler said a lot of very questionable/incorrect things that were edited out of the final video. The final cut doesn't really show why they said/voted in a certain way. They didn't vote him low cos of the military (a lot of people in the military are obviously very smart). Also the ASVAB is (like most tests) also extremely flawed and doesn't really measure intelligence. Like all tests, it studies how well you take tests - not intelligence. Certain people are automatically blacklisted from most tests (if they have a learning difficult for example) despite being very intelligent. I scored 95 and my friends also took it as a joke and all ranked above 90. Lots of people I've spoken to have said that it's not as difficult as people give it credit for.
@@Random-sk6hmof course she's going to claim that, because he outranked her. He likely didn't say anything "questionable" at all. He probably said things consistent with conservative values and she didn't like that. Remember, all leftists believe they're more intelligent than conservative minded individuals, which she clearly is based on her language during the video. She's just salty that a military conservative white male beat her during the test. If she would have outranked him at the end I bet her reaction would be different too. Always an excuse from the victim community.
@@RoninSkye24 Fake? I literally had the military calling me up and trying to constantly recruit me until I had to tell them to stop calling cos I'm not interested.
I love how the young blonde woman shared a story about how she was judged as less than because she's a young blonde woman and then they ranked her pretty low for what we can assume is those same biases
I feel like she was judged mainly bc of what she studied and no Ivy League involved. The loudest ones in the video seem to value intelligence a lot in the educational system, putting getting into good colleges and having difficult jobs or degrees as something for more intelligent people and other ways of life as lesser. Even the blonde girl had that biased. And I get it, having a hard degree and getting into an Ivy League Can mean you’re really smart, or also it can mean your disciplined and very goal oriented and anyone with normal amount of inteligence can do it if they start working on it at the right age. Not going to collage, getting into a job and climbing the ladder is the same, it can show they’re either very intelligent or very disciplined and good at what they do. I don’t think her being blonde had something to do with it tbh sorry for the rant 😭😭
I think it's kinda funny how all of them were saying how Tyler's way of thinking is "linear" and how he wasn't taking in any of their perspectives even though they rated him the lowest just cause he's in the military😂
@@newt2120 Yea, perceiving int as something that only results from formal education and knowledge is so much more linear than applying what you know to your job in the military lol. Its just a lot of bias

he's very clearly autistic and i found it sad that everyone there saw the traits as him just being dumb. as an autistic person, i personally find it easier sometimes to just pretend to be dumb than actually show my intelligence because i have to battle so hard to be seen and a lot of the time it's just not worth the effort i have to put in on top of everything else that's hard about social interaction.
It’s funny how they all (except our military guy of course) viewed IQ as level of academics and achievements, but as soon as their IQ results rolled in it became ‘something that means nothing to little’.
The funny part is IQ actually has little to do with formal education, that’s literally the reason it was made. The fact that such “smarty farties” didn’t know that is laughable.
I think the Veritasium video on IQ summed it up nicely (I don't remember the exact wording so let me paraphrase): "different cultures, or even different people view and exhibit intelligence in vastly different ways, so categorizing theirs with the same metric that we use for our own is pointless and inaccurate"
sean's metaphors are awesome and incredibly vivid. he's very perceptive. he's pointing out things no one else is mentioning. i think people might misjudge his intelligence because of the way he expresses himself, which sucks! he seems rad!
No. “He’s painting with one colour instead of the rainbow” “his thinking is linear and intelligence is like… more of a sphere?” These are not vivid, they’re stOOpid with two O’s
@@jackgarvey4780I don't think it's stupid per se, just two very flowery ways of saying "intelligence is multifaceted". Not the craziest of insights but the way he says it is like he's delivering some sacred truth.
He went to Loyola Marymount which is a good school, not to mention the double major in cultural anthro which requires lots of writing. Being a director of social media also requires a generous amount of competence. Groupthink is a scary thing.
I'm honestly surprised Cody didn't score much higher. I expected him at 120+ of course online tests aren't very accurate but he's clearly very intelligent, from his creativity and quick humour, as well as his situational and emotional awareness
I think she just meant that she thought the ranking would be purely for a RUclips video and that they wouldn’t actually test them. When I first watched this vid like three years ago I was also confused but like fifth time around after watching various reactions I think that’s what she means
im betting its something like "posts about social justice or politics = higher intelligence". at least for her. she def overvalues EQ over the other metrics. and assumes that everyone documents their lives online 😂
As a PhD myself I would not take having the title clear proof of being very smart, rather shows you have determination and you manage to survive in the tough academic environment.
True, while it doesn't determine intelligence, I feel as though some other commenters are ignoring that it does still require a lot of determination and skill in the touch academic setting.
As an engineering PhD I absolutely agree too!! Like your choice of job (working at McDonald's vs. lawyer) may reflect IQ range very broadly, it's definitely not the whole story. Being a lawyer vs. engineer vs. consultant vs. successful small-business owner doesn't necessarily indicate who's smarter, just what skills they chose to spend their time honing. In doing the Ph.D., it's just another choice of job for the first 5-6 years after college. I feel like I just proved to myself that I have enough determination/perseverance to stick it through a hard project, and how to learn something new fast ... rather than like ... growing my IQ. Especially for like cancer biology, I know a lot of her time was spent growing cells, which is not that different from being a chef. Lol. Maybe if you were a math Ph.D. it would be different. I can say this as someone who's done similar.
For reference: 94 on the military asvab. Means he is in the 94th percentile. Or in other words is smarter than 94% of people taking it. Also a lot of sections in the asvab are essentially iq questions.
that is straight-up incorrect. You can score >100 on the ASVAB. The scoring is the same as the ACT (/36) and SAT (/1600), not percentile. Edit: made a mistake, was thinking of GT score
Not only that, but ASVAB tests for an INCREDIBLY diverse range of knowledge and education. It isn't just math, geometry, puzzle solving, etc. It tests SO many different categories, including things like mechanical aptitude, electrical knowledge, reading comprehension and many other things. Getting a 94 on ASVAB is legit insane. I know two people who scored 97, and the other 96. They are both legitimately geniuses.
Since Cody pointed it out, it is so bizarre that in the same sentence where she expresses admiration of specific traits of nice people, she immediately does the opposite of that trait. She does it a few times.
as a teacher i've always found this particular jubilee video really interesting because right off the bat, Tyler hits the nail on his head when he describes his view of IQ, which to me signalled that he knows what he's talking about. IQ tests focus mainly on pattern recognition and problem solving, which is exactly what he does.
I knew that marine dude would rank at least somewhat high. Cody's right; his no bullshit demeanor speaks volumes. He clearly understands that he doesn't owe anyone anything. I also thought it was funny that miss phd was judging the colorful dude for his outfit. Like look in the mirror. Srsly maybe personal style should factor into intelligence because her dress was atrocious
i was thinking the exact same thing. this is so mean but just the shoes she was wearing in our lords year of 2023 means that she must have *some* deficit in self awareness
@clarasocool it’s funny how you guys are only shitting on her for being rude about Sean’s appearance and not Tyler, it seems like everyone in the comments is biased for Tyler it’s weird
@@catscratchbite because people don't like the way she acted, she came across as insecure and narcissistic, Tyler came across as the opposite. Man has like no emotional range but at least hes genuine
As someone who grew up in the gifted program, it's easy to spot someone like the PhD lady who clearly is overcompensating, because they attach their identity to their "intelligence". I also like Sean, they give off the vibe that they're pretty smart but hiding their intelligence, because it doesn't matter to them.
it bothered me so much how they kept defining intelligence as just IQ or EQ. I knew tyler had the higher IQ because he actually described it with other words than just IQ 😂
Maria yes but not Sada. She was one of the only likeable ones here. Her comment about unconscious bias was correct as we saw with the blonde girl getting ranked low (even after she explicitly mentioned past experience of that happening to her).
@@Random-sk6hm sada was very clearly only talking about the fact that they put Ray up there because he was Asian which is so ignorant. She made weird comments here and there and was the first to say the test is basically rigged as soon as she was ranked on the lower side. Sean wasn’t put up there because of underlying prejudice, he was quiet and every time he spoke he was very clear. He never bragged about anything or tried to prove to anyone that he was the smartest. Mentioning prejudice when he was one of the most well spoken and respectful ppl of the group is so tone deaf.
@@Random-sk6hmshe also said though that she believes that you can get better at learning but then contradicted herself saying that she’ll never be able to learn a new language…
@@arlyn6310 I agree, I would've ranked him high too cos of his quietly confident demeanour and not trying too hard. However, just pointing out the context of her comment.
Having a PhD doesn't inherently mean someone is highly intelligent, it definitely requires a lot of dedication but it also means that Maria is knowledgeable in one specific field, a doctorate doesn't equal being intelligent in everything. She'd definitely place first in the highest ego though lol
THANK YOU YES. I feel like people understate what an avarage human can do with their brain when they put the work into it. And understand te human intelligence in general. If you get to it and the right age and the right time, anyone can achieve most thing higher intelligent people can (like masters and phd’s and fancy companies)
Agreed. Something I have come to realize with age. So many people I went to school with went on to get masters or doctorates, but in everyday life they are so ditzy. It always seemed like sometimes they were really good at school, or the family had money to keep extending their degree program.
This! I'm knowledgeable in my field and got a high score on the state testing for my license. A test that many fail multiple times. But I'm not smart. I'm simply knowledgeable in my field.
Fr yeah my dad has a phd but let me tell u he has terrible EQ like I think it’s part of the reason he was let go from a job one time. And my mom w great EQ with only a masters has a higher salary and has never been laid off lol
It’s funny because in the media narcissist are always portrayed as smart people but they actually have average intelligence and most psychopaths have low intelligence levels
Cos its what you learned through a system on paper with recommendation from a higher institution. Then youre thrown in the real world and see how unpredictable the system can be at times and you gotta find ways to understand why. Aka society and humanity.
Creativity is a factor of intelligence, the fact that they automatically assumed that the more artistic person in the room was the less intelligent is crazy to me. Same kind of people that think art is dumb smh Its giving that movie Booksmart, maria
I think people underestimate the intelligence of social media professionals. It’s a lot of problem solving, keeping up to date with current events, being able to adapt to changing situations and responding in the right way. Especially responding to scandals, you need to be able to read the situation and what is the best way to respond to control or repair damage. And then just to go into the intelligence with artists, just being able to work with perspective and colour theory is hard!
@@coryburns4309 he's literally a social media director and majored in dance and theater, those things require creativity and artistic skills. requires creativity.

The guy getting a 94 on the ASVAB honestly blew my mind, I've personally seen few people score that high and I hear the test is difficult depending on how you study. Some people even have to take it multiple times so he's pretty decently smart.
I remember taking it randomly in high school and I think I got like a 48. And I was told that’s a decent score at the time hahaha. 94th percentile is crazy!
@@twistmygrinder4777 that's what my cousin did, military intelligence! But damn, now I'm second-guessing myself because his sister went into cyber security lol. So maybe she is the smartest? 🤔🤔
For someone who talks a lot about EQ, I’m pretty sure Maria would’ve been last in that too. She was very high in confidence, sure, but her arrogance and condescension towards others really showed her true colors. Lucky for her, the real world rewards confidence the most out of anything.
Typically the people that go on and on about emotional intelligence don’t have any. They try so hard to be self-aware that they forget to be aware of literally anyone other than themselves.
PhDs mean you're very knowledgeable about the one thing your PhD discusses. Five minutes in I knew she wouldn't be the smartest - smart people don't mouth-off. She reminds me so much of my ex-friend from high school who prided herself on being intelligent and then hated anyone who was more knowledgeable than her about anything. I really loved her and then found out she hated me because I was rank 1 in our history class while she was always rank 2 or 3 (which is still pretty fucking good???). The funny thing is, I think I only did better than her because I was more receptive to criticism on my work while she was adamant that she did things right. After we graduated she said she didn't want to be friends with me or my best friend because we made her feel "intellectually inferior" but wanted to remain friends with two of our other friends because they made her feel "intellectually superior". Suffice to say she now has no close friends. She also considered herself to have high EQ lmao. I know she watches Cody Ko so if you see this,🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍
reminds me of the saying “if you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room” truly intelligent people are always eager to learn from people that know more than them, because with intelligence comes humility, whereas ignorance breeds pride
everyone's missing the part where Maria attributes Ray's perceived intelligence to him being "humble and modest", and then she proceeds to list all the reasons she's a close second in an extremely braggy manner.. as if that doesn't directly contradict what you just said miss girl. go ahead and take this 6
I’m struggling to decide if that is EQ or not. Extreme bluntness can be deemed the opposite. But he does give off very high IQ and overall fast brain activity lol. Reminds me of some of the researchers I’ve worked for. Smartest people on the planet and yet somehow had me worrying about how they survived day to day on the streets 😂.

@@Cashhhhew as an autistic person I think really depends if you consider autistic people to have high emotional intelligence. Whether he is autistic or not, bluntness and honesty is greatly undervalued by much of the neurotypical population. Its a big misconception about autism that we have low emotional intelligence
i feel like it makes the most sense to just be very humble, rank yourself lower whether you believe it or not because it’s a lot less embarrassing to score low when you didn’t rate yourself among the best😂 and it’s win win if you rank higher
It was definetly influenced by the social media manager thing too. They all ranked themselves more due to their intelligence in their specialized interest rather than overall intelligence, seeing the "value of their career as higher." Sean didn't get to say much. 😢
Agreed. I also think Sean has one of the higher EQs. I would guess second under the blonde girl. He was very kind and had high social and self awareness.
TBH I would make the knee-jerk assumption that someone dressed like that wasn't super smart too. He opened his mouth and just seemed like a lovely person too, which surprised me...I judged him as being vapid from the get go but he was clearly the nicest person there.
The IQ test they took was obviously not the most accurate but I would still bet Maria is on the lower end no matter what. Anecdotally, basically every smart person I meet acts at least in some way like that Harvard dude.
Some people don’t seem to realize that knowledge is not the same as intelligence. I think that’s what military guy was trying to get at with his definition, but they were so hung up on education (which mostly increases your knowledge) being a determining factor that they misjudged him and the blonde girl. Also, while other metrics of intelligence exist (EQ, etc.) it’s kind of irrelevant to argue those in a video focused on IQ since there is no way to factor those into the final ranking.
yeah they all tried to be "inclusive" with their definitions of intelligence, but then threw that out the window when it came to rankings, without acknowledging that education was all they knew about each other. they couldve maybe asked each other questions related to other types of intelligence, or at least played a game of rock paper scissors 😭 like since you know the rankings going to be biased, might as well throw other biases in there to even it out 💀
tbf, Maria would also come last in an EQ test (or by looking at social media, surely she didn't think she would look better than the social media guy?!)
They were all into metrics as a measure of intelligence and all of a sudden when the channel sets a particular one, the IQ test in this case, and it gives unexpected results against their biases, it's all "intelligence can't be measured". One of the best outcomes of a video.
i don't think education is even remotely related to intelligence. they're relying way too heavily on academic accomplishments and not considering different types of knowledge.
@@miranndall69it does make them less intelligent, what you just said makes no sense, they are uneducated but they are still intelligent, how? This is the same as saying that someone can be illiterate but smarter than someone who graduated college, it is simply bullshit

The fact they talked highly about IQ tests and exams but IMMEDIATELLY back paddled after seeing the results of the test and called them unreliable and that they don't capture "everything" is so fucking funny 😂

It makes sense that the consulting guy is number one. My friends are practicing for all their big 3 consulting interviews right now and its literally insane the amount of pattern recognition, quick math skills, and social intelligence you need to do well.
Sada and Maria were super quick to throw that test under the bus when they both got ranked 3-6. Both were pretty arrogant and truthfully, it felt good to see them taken down a notch.
It’s interesting that the Marine guy emphasized that educational background doesn’t necessarily mean anything then fell back on “in high school people with neon hair did bad” 😭
That's not hypocritical, he wasn't implying that doing bad at school means you are dumb at everything, the mention of school wasn't in an "educational" context, it was a physical location he was at in the past. He went to school, then joined the military. That's it, so any stories from before the military would begin "when I was at school" because he doesn't have any other place where he would have met people, besides maybe a sports club or such but that wouldn't really have been relevant to the question. It's effectively just a saying, a time period, "when I was at school (when I was between 4 and 18)" rather than "if you failed inside the main educational establishment you will fail outside it" which is obviously not what he believes. What is ACTUALLY interesting was that it upset you enough to write this comment complaining but missed the fact he followed it up by saying that that would make that person probably the most confident person there.
Exactly, the fact that he judged someone else's intelligence based off appearance is hilarious especially given the stereotype that intelligent people dress poorly (think about the billionaire 'geniuses'). Btw Sade did a reaction video and mentioned that Tyler said a lot of very questionable/incorrect things that were edited out of the final video. The final cut doesn't really show why they said/voted in a certain way. They didn't vote him low cos of the military (a lot of people in the military are obviously very smart). Also the ASVAB is (like most tests) extremely flawed and doesn't really measure intelligence. Like all tests, it measures how well you take tests - not intelligence. Certain people are automatically blacklisted from most tests (if they have a learning difficulty for example) despite being very intelligent. I scored 95 and my friends also took it as a joke and all ranked above 90. Lots of people I've spoken to have said that it's not as difficult as people give it credit for.
He didn't say Sean dressed poorly. He said creative dressers usually did worse in school(logic critical thinking). He was making a guess correlation. What is worse is Maria saying she is aware of her surroundings, then immediately asking someone if anyone can do their job.
That’s interesting, I was never academically successful but at the end of my educational career; I found myself adapting more to my learning style. In my opinion, they might be right, intelligence is adaptability.
Yes me too its all about exploring different avenues and finding different things that work for you. For me i excelled in everything at school but kept failing basic maths, things just had to be explained to me in different ways for me to grasp it, some people just dont have the patience (and that goes for some teachers too)
I liked Tyler the most. He seemed to have the best understanding for what the video was about. Usually a good gauge of IQ is by how specific they are and how much they pay attention to details, for example in language and the way they speak. Some of the others were rambling and going off topic too much. Intelligence is your brain adaptability and ability to problem solve and thrive in difficult situations

Yeah when she mentioned she had worked at a law firm and then now as a software engineer I placed her in my top two. She seems adaptable in her skill set and also seems very quietly confident in her abilities ❤
I got a 65 on the asvab, and I was told I did amazing and could have any job in the military. Getting a 94 Is actually nuts it means he is as smart as the top 94% of the people who took the test. That test was made in 1968 and revised every year to still make it a good standardization. To this day above 50 is average anything above 60 is above average 8 out of 10 fail their first time and you fail at 30. When the scoring was made the had half a million people take it to make the percentages and anything in the bottom 30% would not qualify for the military. Lastly the jobs you can get all fall under what you scored so he could have done anything in the military with a score like that. I qualified for my dream job and I got a 65.

If you really think about it, this goes to show with hard work and dedication anyone can achieve their goals. Even Maria with the lowest IQ (average score) got a PHD. Sounds a bit backhanded but there’s always some positive to these interactions.
@@Anna133199 I've seen it a lot in my family, most of the people from my mothers side have mental disorders (crappy genes lol) but they're all high achievers who work mostly as professors/doctors- it has less to do with intelligence and more money/dedication, a PHD while hard is achievable for anyone with those two things lol
As a person who also is in the STEM field, you don't have to be a genius to get a PhD, you just have to be a decent student. Also, even though I'm not American it's known that just because you're Ivy League doesn't mean you're more intelligent than students from other universities. Edit: spelling
Tbf the people taking a test to get into the military are usually those who aren't going to college/have no other options/don't do well in school, so it makes sense the average score would be low

You can easily tell Tyler has above average intelligence, he is straightforward and based in reality, not showing too much emotions towards others. Maria on the other hand is a typical example of a person who did well on all her tests, she can follow the rules set by schools - still smart, but not as much as she thinks she is.
@@randohuman5084 People make bad decisions when they're angry, sad, frustrated etc. In those kinds of moments, you're not thinking very logically. Doesn't mean you're not a logical person otherwise though but I don't think you can deny the fact that emotions affect your state of mind.
Girl that went to Yale: "I 100% disagree, you can getter better at learning" Two sentences later: "I'm never going to be able to learn another language" Lmao
She slightly dissed the military guy but other than that she seemed fine. And even though this ranking tied her in third, an IQ of 131 like she has is incredibly good.
@@belf4693i’m also autistic and i don’t think she meant to be rude. although i did not like how she judged Tyler. not that i am saying he is autistic too but the way he talked and thought about things I would have assumed that maybe he was autistic too. she acknowledged the bias that maybe existed ranking the asian man but not that, which i think was inconsiderate of her
That’s because she’s dyslexic- learning languages is a specific skill people with dyslexia find incredibly difficult because of brain wiring. It doesn’t mean she can’t get better at learning in other ways
The way she tried to constantly prove to everyone she was the smartest made it so easy to see that she wasnt. A smart person wouldnt feel the need of the constant validation and she was a clear case of the Dunning-Kruger effect
8:09 so she disagrees with the other dudes assertion that you can't get better at learning, but then admits that she's been trying to learn a skill set for 12 years, and hasn't gotten better at it?
@@rynowhiz1271 I missed that 😂😂 I have dyslexia and it has no impact on my ability to answer questions. Except if someone asks me to spell something, then it will have an effect 😂
Yeah because if a dyslexic person cant learn a foreign language, then everyone cannot improve their learning in all aspects. What kind of flawed logic is that?
I love how miss PhD goes on about how Tyler “didn’t take other people’s perspectives into account,” yet he was the only one not equating intelligence with collegiate prestige, and everyone else judged him for not having gone to college. Everyone else defined intelligence as the sum total of information you’ve crammed into your head, but his definition is one’s capacity to learn, which I find to be a much better definition of intelligence.
@@Aaron-kj8dv went to nuclear power school in the 80's and now works for the gov. Even without an associates, bachelors, or PhD. pretty cool stuff. He took an accredited IQ test, said 139. He's brilliant. I wouldn't say super genius, just very very gifted.
It's ironic how before the PhD student's little boasting session she praises the Harvard guy on the fact he's humble, which was (according to her) a sign of intelligence. So really she called herself unintelligent.
seriously 😭
haha i didn’t even catch this
Which proves that her EQ is lower because she couldn't be self-aware enough to realize she wasn't being humble and all the things she was listing as intelligence.
Cackled so hard
maria’s arrogance and boastfulness about her phd and biotech career made it so clear that she* isn’t that emotionally intelligent and is not, in fact, all that aware of her surroundings.
Very true, even the Harvard guy was super humble and let's be real he knows he's the smartest guy in every room he walks into
Come on, we don't know these people in real life. You probably don't even know how YOU would behave if you walked into that room, in front of all these cameras. It must be really stressful and it's definitely not an everyday situation, I'm pretty sure none of these people were being their usual selves. I think we shouldn't get to judge their personality, much less emotional intelligence, based on one video

She thought it was going to open up to social media... why?
The fact that Maria thought they were going to “look at social media” to determine who is the most intelligent is a pretty good indicator that she isn’t the most intelligent
Yeah, I mean how would “looking at social media” prove intelligence? What would that even entail? What would be the criteria?
That caught off guard so bad I started thinking maybe my iq is low for missing something here but Jesus I’m genuinely curious on how tf social media gets in the equation
@@bbmmr8 “Maria’s wearing a lab coat in her profile picture and Tyler’s holding a fish in his so clearly she goes to the top”

And if that were the case she was super condescending to the literal Social Media Director
Maria has taught us a very important lesson that sometimes people who we perceive as intelligent are just loud, bossy and overconfident.
YES lol. If you have been to ANY University class you know this firsthand.
Yes. She was over-confident and defensive. Really smart people aren't defensive about how smart they are.
To be fair, she's still above average intelligence (average around 100) but the other contestants were just ridiculously smart
no, average intelligence is 85-115. Not saying she isn't smart but she's in line where majority of people fall @@darkhorse381
We? Speak for yourself. Just watching this I could tell you Tyler would be high and Maria would be low
“I’m really emotionally intelligent” she says as she actively singles out another person TO THEIR FACE that they look unintelligent, GURLLLLLL??!
SO EMBARRASSING FOR HER.. LIKE. "i look at you and i need to tell myself not to judge you, you must be so smart!!!"
She admitted her prejudice and acknowledged that it's not ok for her to judge people on their intelligence because of how they look. She could have worded it better or maybe she should not have said it at all but I really don't think she meant any harm.

i love the software developer girl, she was so humble and just knew she was smart without preaching it
Same
Software developer = good at math = good at abstract thinking = #1 indicator of intelligence. Statistically, the highest IQ majors are math, physics, and philosophy (engineering and computer science are related to math & physics). Getting a PhD in biology takes a lot of patience, hard work, and reading/writing skills but only requires slightly above average intelligence. I know this because I have a Master's degree in biology and might also do a PhD
I like her because I'm a software dev too and my iq is also 133 :) We're twins!
I also really liked her and im studying software engireering! You guys have any tips for the students in progress?☺
Yup
It felt so good seeing Maria put in 6th place. That kind of cocky behavior is just the worst thing ever.
she got on my nerves real bad
@@jaqsreyeah. And a lot of kids that go to college nowadays are like that. They think just cause they went to a good school that they’re automatically better than everyone else. Yet they come out of it with nothing more than a degree.
And she was claiming high EQ. Nobody with high emotional intelligence is acting like that in public.
Plus im happy to hear that even with a below average IQ you can do all those smart things she listed
I didn't find her that bad. Come on guys, let's not be so toxic. I'm a college dropout myself so I get the whole thing about not being considered as smart just because you lack a degree. But not everyone who has a degree is cocky, and I think if you're very proud of your degree it's completely okay to brag about it a little bit sometimes
I found it strange that the PHD lady judged the social media guy based on his looks indirectly in front of everyone and considered her self to be highly intelligent in EQ lol
She said she didnt do that. Being activley aware of your bias (which everyone has) isnt bad. Acknowledging that you had a bias and are fighting it is better than what tyler did who just judged him straight out. People act like they dont have biases
Self awareness is actually a sign of emotional intelligence lmao
But I think the argument is that if she were emotionally intelligent she wouldn't have called out the social media guy in front of everyone just to prove that she is emotionally intelligent
@completelynormalperson7077 Some people are much, much more biased though. The stupid ones tend to be the ones who don't catch their own.
I think Tyler's matter of fact attitude got to Maria. Her body language and tone showed this for sure, but I'm honestly not sure if she realized she was explicitly showing this. Just seems funny if she didn't because she's aware of her surroundings, according to her, yet not herself...
And for some reason they agreed with her lol
I love the way they contrasted Maria inexplicably thinking they'd be looking at social media and being surprised with an IQ test with Tyler immediately saying "it was kind of expected".
That was so funny 😭
Lmaoooo
can we appreciate how humble ray is despite getting first place in both rankings he still aknowledges all aspects of "intelligence"

Seeing Maria in 6th and Tyler in 3rd was really really satisfying. She was so prideful.
You could tell Ray was smart because he knew to keep his mouth shut lol
Lmao!
As a PhD student, the idea that PhD's are smart very generally is funny. A PhD is really just perseverance and developing highly specific knowledge.
Key word: specific
It doesnt mean u know everything
Exactly lol also formal education is literally just a likelihood of the opportunities you’ve had (rich people have more, poor people have less) it’s really that simple and then you have obviously the outliers who are able to do something unlikely a lot of it is just luck and then yes a PhD just shows you’re able to preserve and keep going lol
One of my friends is getting his PhD at a well-known private university and getting a full-ride scholarship which is amazing-and part of the reason he was able to do so is because he’s really perseverant in life and in academics. Do I still have to help him with spelling? Yes. Is he good at math? Idk 🤷🏻♀️ but he’s getting his PhD 🤪
Fr. Most of us are out here just trying to survive 😂
I think most people aren't familiar with what getting a PhD entails, and just think a PhD is like going to superschool
A big clue to Maria being last was that she kept saying she was the smartest out of everyone there. Typically the more you “know”, the more you realize you “don’t know”. She would understand that the other intelligent people in the room may be better at subjects or topics she is not, and that’s something to value, not something to feel threatened by.
Dunning Kruger 🥰
This comment demonstrates “wisdom” which is an oft under appreciated form of intelligence. Definitely true that “smart” people do gain deeper understanding of how not smart we all are.
True but I feel like it’s not that we’re “not smart”, it’s that there’s so much to learn in each field. In higher education, almost everything is broken down into a science so that it can be researched. There’s just an endless amount of things to learn about the world (and universe). It’s also constantly changing and the way we study it is changing with new technology. Before exploring a career or topic, you feel like you’ve got it all figured out. Then you get into it and understand the range and how connected everything is as well as the variables that play a role. Especially when you study the origin or history. The universe is so vast. :-)
Right and the guy who was the most quiet (I don’t even remember his name he was so low key lol) ended up being the smartest
They say the smartest person in the room often thinks they’re not the most intelligent, and the least intelligent always thinks they are the most intelligent.

like why even say it? isn't it a more high EQ move to keep some thoughts to yourself so as not to upset someone indirectly while making yourself look bad

I love how the young blonde woman shared a story about how she was judged as less than because she's a young blonde woman and then they ranked her pretty low for what we can assume is those same biases
My exact thoughts
So what because he says he was judged for something in the past they should have just put her on first place?
So sad
I feel like she was judged mainly bc of what she studied and no Ivy League involved. The loudest ones in the video seem to value intelligence a lot in the educational system, putting getting into good colleges and having difficult jobs or degrees as something for more intelligent people and other ways of life as lesser. Even the blonde girl had that biased. And I get it, having a hard degree and getting into an Ivy League Can mean you’re really smart, or also it can mean your disciplined and very goal oriented and anyone with normal amount of inteligence can do it if they start working on it at the right age. Not going to collage, getting into a job and climbing the ladder is the same, it can show they’re either very intelligent or very disciplined and good at what they do. I don’t think her being blonde had something to do with it tbh sorry for the rant 😭😭
This is why I love the movie Legally Blonde
I think it's kinda funny how all of them were saying how Tyler's way of thinking is "linear" and how he wasn't taking in any of their perspectives even though they rated him the lowest just cause he's in the military😂
His thinking was anything but linear.
@@newt2120 Yea, perceiving int as something that only results from formal education and knowledge is so much more linear than applying what you know to your job in the military lol. Its just a lot of bias
Btw Sade did a reaction video and mentioned that Tyler said a lot of very questionable/incorrect things that were edited out of the final video. The final cut doesn't really show why they said/voted in a certain way. They didn't vote him low cos of the military (a lot of people in the military are obviously very smart).
Also the ASVAB is (like most tests) also extremely flawed and doesn't really measure intelligence. Like all tests, it studies how well you take tests - not intelligence. Certain people are automatically blacklisted from most tests (if they have a learning difficult for example) despite being very intelligent. I scored 95 and my friends also took it as a joke and all ranked above 90. Lots of people I've spoken to have said that it's not as difficult as people give it credit for.
he's very clearly autistic and i found it sad that everyone there saw the traits as him just being dumb. as an autistic person, i personally find it easier sometimes to just pretend to be dumb than actually show my intelligence because i have to battle so hard to be seen and a lot of the time it's just not worth the effort i have to put in on top of everything else that's hard about social interaction.
That’s what got me though bc they said “oh well you did it wrong because you need to see from my perspective.”
Damnit this would’ve been a much better video to watch on my lunch vs watching Cody vomit in the last video🤣
lol right
Hahah I’m saying
I did the same
Hahaha 😂
i still haven't watched that vid bc i always watch cody while i'm eating lmao
that will make me lose my appetite realllll quick
It’s funny how they all (except our military guy of course) viewed IQ as level of academics and achievements, but as soon as their IQ results rolled in it became ‘something that means nothing to little’.
The funny part is IQ actually has little to do with formal education, that’s literally the reason it was made. The fact that such “smarty farties” didn’t know that is laughable.
I think the Veritasium video on IQ summed it up nicely (I don't remember the exact wording so let me paraphrase): "different cultures, or even different people view and exhibit intelligence in vastly different ways, so categorizing theirs with the same metric that we use for our own is pointless and inaccurate"
sean's metaphors are awesome and incredibly vivid. he's very perceptive. he's pointing out things no one else is mentioning. i think people might misjudge his intelligence because of the way he expresses himself, which sucks! he seems rad!
No. “He’s painting with one colour instead of the rainbow” “his thinking is linear and intelligence is like… more of a sphere?” These are not vivid, they’re stOOpid with two O’s
@@jackgarvey4780I don't think it's stupid per se, just two very flowery ways of saying "intelligence is multifaceted". Not the craziest of insights but the way he says it is like he's delivering some sacred truth.
I mean he has a high IQ. He is in the top 3-4% of the population with a 125.
He actually has a high IQ that is above average
He went to Loyola Marymount which is a good school, not to mention the double major in cultural anthro which requires lots of writing. Being a director of social media also requires a generous amount of competence. Groupthink is a scary thing.
Cody was smarter than Maria. Maria got all the karma lol
Still is!
I'm honestly surprised Cody didn't score much higher. I expected him at 120+ of course online tests aren't very accurate but he's clearly very intelligent, from his creativity and quick humour, as well as his situational and emotional awareness
Maria thought they were going to look at social media to see who had the highest IQ...
What would that even look like??? A competition to see who has the best memes? XD
I think she just meant that she thought the ranking would be purely for a RUclips video and that they wouldn’t actually test them. When I first watched this vid like three years ago I was also confused but like fifth time around after watching various reactions I think that’s what she means
@@noneofyourbusiness3096the way people present themselves to the world could be telling
im betting its something like "posts about social justice or politics = higher intelligence". at least for her. she def overvalues EQ over the other metrics. and assumes that everyone documents their lives online 😂
Probably because that's where she posts content all about her fancy company as evidence of how smart she is
As a PhD myself I would not take having the title clear proof of being very smart, rather shows you have determination and you manage to survive in the tough academic environment.
True, while it doesn't determine intelligence, I feel as though some other commenters are ignoring that it does still require a lot of determination and skill in the touch academic setting.
As an engineering PhD I absolutely agree too!! Like your choice of job (working at McDonald's vs. lawyer) may reflect IQ range very broadly, it's definitely not the whole story. Being a lawyer vs. engineer vs. consultant vs. successful small-business owner doesn't necessarily indicate who's smarter, just what skills they chose to spend their time honing. In doing the Ph.D., it's just another choice of job for the first 5-6 years after college. I feel like I just proved to myself that I have enough determination/perseverance to stick it through a hard project, and how to learn something new fast ... rather than like ... growing my IQ.
Especially for like cancer biology, I know a lot of her time was spent growing cells, which is not that different from being a chef. Lol. Maybe if you were a math Ph.D. it would be different. I can say this as someone who's done similar.
For reference: 94 on the military asvab. Means he is in the 94th percentile. Or in other words is smarter than 94% of people taking it. Also a lot of sections in the asvab are essentially iq questions.
yeah but marines are morons
that is straight-up incorrect. You can score >100 on the ASVAB. The scoring is the same as the ACT (/36) and SAT (/1600), not percentile.
Edit: made a mistake, was thinking of GT score
@@steven3962 the highest score possible is a 99 on the ASVAB
Not only that, but ASVAB tests for an INCREDIBLY diverse range of knowledge and education. It isn't just math, geometry, puzzle solving, etc. It tests SO many different categories, including things like mechanical aptitude, electrical knowledge, reading comprehension and many other things. Getting a 94 on ASVAB is legit insane. I know two people who scored 97, and the other 96. They are both legitimately geniuses.
@@steven3962 it is incredibly easy to find that 99 is the max score. And that your score is what percentile you are.
Since Cody pointed it out, it is so bizarre that in the same sentence where she expresses admiration of specific traits of nice people, she immediately does the opposite of that trait. She does it a few times.
as a teacher i've always found this particular jubilee video really interesting because right off the bat, Tyler hits the nail on his head when he describes his view of IQ, which to me signalled that he knows what he's talking about. IQ tests focus mainly on pattern recognition and problem solving, which is exactly what he does.
I initially judged him lower on the scale but right after that statement of his I was convinced he was among the top.
I knew that marine dude would rank at least somewhat high. Cody's right; his no bullshit demeanor speaks volumes. He clearly understands that he doesn't owe anyone anything. I also thought it was funny that miss phd was judging the colorful dude for his outfit. Like look in the mirror. Srsly maybe personal style should factor into intelligence because her dress was atrocious
somebody should tell her how many furries there are in tech
i was thinking the exact same thing. this is so mean but just the shoes she was wearing in our lords year of 2023 means that she must have *some* deficit in self awareness
Tyler also judges the dude for having colorful hair. Weird how people still do that
@clarasocool it’s funny how you guys are only shitting on her for being rude about Sean’s appearance and not Tyler, it seems like everyone in the comments is biased for Tyler it’s weird
@@catscratchbite because people don't like the way she acted, she came across as insecure and narcissistic, Tyler came across as the opposite. Man has like no emotional range but at least hes genuine
As someone who grew up in the gifted program, it's easy to spot someone like the PhD lady who clearly is overcompensating, because they attach their identity to their "intelligence". I also like Sean, they give off the vibe that they're pretty smart but hiding their intelligence, because it doesn't matter to them.
Yes
they talk like they have something to prove while constantly gassing themselves up. everyone else in the video was pretty humble

He used to be on buzzfeed fashion videos sometimes.
"10 people style the same item" ones
Seems like a sweet person all around.
Sada & Maria being salty about the results feels so satisfying lmfaooo
Maria yes but not Sada. She was one of the only likeable ones here. Her comment about unconscious bias was correct as we saw with the blonde girl getting ranked low (even after she explicitly mentioned past experience of that happening to her).
@@Random-sk6hm sada was very clearly only talking about the fact that they put Ray up there because he was Asian which is so ignorant. She made weird comments here and there and was the first to say the test is basically rigged as soon as she was ranked on the lower side. Sean wasn’t put up there because of underlying prejudice, he was quiet and every time he spoke he was very clear. He never bragged about anything or tried to prove to anyone that he was the smartest. Mentioning prejudice when he was one of the most well spoken and respectful ppl of the group is so tone deaf.
@@Random-sk6hm nah sada definitely went on the offensive and made weird comments throughout
@@Random-sk6hmshe also said though that she believes that you can get better at learning but then contradicted herself saying that she’ll never be able to learn a new language…
@@arlyn6310 I agree, I would've ranked him high too cos of his quietly confident demeanour and not trying too hard.
However, just pointing out the context of her comment.
Having a PhD doesn't inherently mean someone is highly intelligent, it definitely requires a lot of dedication but it also means that Maria is knowledgeable in one specific field, a doctorate doesn't equal being intelligent in everything. She'd definitely place first in the highest ego though lol
THANK YOU YES. I feel like people understate what an avarage human can do with their brain when they put the work into it. And understand te human intelligence in general. If you get to it and the right age and the right time, anyone can achieve most thing higher intelligent people can (like masters and phd’s and fancy companies)
Agreed. Something I have come to realize with age. So many people I went to school with went on to get masters or doctorates, but in everyday life they are so ditzy. It always seemed like sometimes they were really good at school, or the family had money to keep extending their degree program.
This! I'm knowledgeable in my field and got a high score on the state testing for my license. A test that many fail multiple times. But I'm not smart. I'm simply knowledgeable in my field.
Fr yeah my dad has a phd but let me tell u he has terrible EQ like I think it’s part of the reason he was let go from a job one time. And my mom w great EQ with only a masters has a higher salary and has never been laid off lol
Maria convinced everyone she was smart by basically saying “trust me, I’m smart”
Citing my previous papers on new research papers is my favorite pastime
Lol
maria didn't sit right with me since the very beginning, she was very intolerable and seemed incredibly narcissistic
It’s funny because in the media narcissist are always portrayed as smart people but they actually have average intelligence and most psychopaths have low intelligence levels
She talks too much. If she doesn’t brag that much, then she wouldn’t have exposed herself that much.
shes probably insecure and puts her entire worth into her phd and thats unhealthy and off-putting
getting a college education literally does not determine intelligence at all.
Yeah i knew people on the verge of dropping or not passing their year... longer education doesn't automatically mean that you're smarter 😅
Cos its what you learned through a system on paper with recommendation from a higher institution. Then youre thrown in the real world and see how unpredictable the system can be at times and you gotta find ways to understand why. Aka society and humanity.
the harvard dude was smart tho
@@peelyslyeah but that one guy isn't representative of the entire university education system
It more often determines success than intelligence
Creativity is a factor of intelligence, the fact that they automatically assumed that the more artistic person in the room was the less intelligent is crazy to me. Same kind of people that think art is dumb smh
Its giving that movie Booksmart, maria
Tell em girl
I think people underestimate the intelligence of social media professionals. It’s a lot of problem solving, keeping up to date with current events, being able to adapt to changing situations and responding in the right way. Especially responding to scandals, you need to be able to read the situation and what is the best way to respond to control or repair damage.
And then just to go into the intelligence with artists, just being able to work with perspective and colour theory is hard!
Fr
The idea that you assumed that because he wore a lot of colors that he was creative is crazy to me.
Think you’d rank high?
@@coryburns4309 he's literally a social media director and majored in dance and theater, those things require creativity and artistic skills. requires creativity. I didn't assume anything and also said nothing about how I would rank in a situation like this'll. If you're gonna try and make a snide comment at someone on the internet learn how to read first.
The guy getting a 94 on the ASVAB honestly blew my mind, I've personally seen few people score that high and I hear the test is difficult depending on how you study. Some people even have to take it multiple times so he's pretty decently smart.
yeah the average score is like a 50
Idk a couple of my friends took it for shits and giggles and got an 92 and a 90. I've heard it's not that bad from others as well
I remember taking it randomly in high school and I think I got like a 48. And I was told that’s a decent score at the time hahaha. 94th percentile is crazy!
@@PThorpe11that score is not good. You would get a shit job with that score.
@@amarooso4776that was me. I didn't study for a second. Took it on a whim. Got a 92.
Many people don’t realize how intelligent you have to be to have certain jobs in the military.
making the smart people carpet bomb kids instead of having them do important jobs is the american way
Seriously, like I have a cousin in the military and I think everyone in our family would rank him as the most intelligent of the cousins.
Right? It’s like they think every single person in the military is just a grunt who knows nothing
My brother is studying cyber security but even having a background in military intelligence he’s struggling passing the tests.
@@twistmygrinder4777 that's what my cousin did, military intelligence! But damn, now I'm second-guessing myself because his sister went into cyber security lol. So maybe she is the smartest? 🤔🤔
For someone who talks a lot about EQ, I’m pretty sure Maria would’ve been last in that too. She was very high in confidence, sure, but her arrogance and condescension towards others really showed her true colors. Lucky for her, the real world rewards confidence the most out of anything.
Typically the people that go on and on about emotional intelligence don’t have any. They try so hard to be self-aware that they forget to be aware of literally anyone other than themselves.
PhDs mean you're very knowledgeable about the one thing your PhD discusses. Five minutes in I knew she wouldn't be the smartest - smart people don't mouth-off. She reminds me so much of my ex-friend from high school who prided herself on being intelligent and then hated anyone who was more knowledgeable than her about anything. I really loved her and then found out she hated me because I was rank 1 in our history class while she was always rank 2 or 3 (which is still pretty fucking good???). The funny thing is, I think I only did better than her because I was more receptive to criticism on my work while she was adamant that she did things right. After we graduated she said she didn't want to be friends with me or my best friend because we made her feel "intellectually inferior" but wanted to remain friends with two of our other friends because they made her feel "intellectually superior". Suffice to say she now has no close friends. She also considered herself to have high EQ lmao.
I know she watches Cody Ko so if you see this,🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍
Same with people who brag about how much money they have but are actually broke
women hate competition
reminds me of the saying “if you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room”
truly intelligent people are always eager to learn from people that know more than them, because with intelligence comes humility, whereas ignorance breeds pride
@@poisonivy6477based
everyone's missing the part where Maria attributes Ray's perceived intelligence to him being "humble and modest", and then she proceeds to list all the reasons she's a close second in an extremely braggy manner.. as if that doesn't directly contradict what you just said miss girl. go ahead and take this 6
There was a fairly large gap between her score and the others too. Like the top 4 were all super close to each other.
I think military man demonstrated a good Eq as well by just being extremely honest with his answers
I’m struggling to decide if that is EQ or not. Extreme bluntness can be deemed the opposite. But he does give off very high IQ and overall fast brain activity lol. Reminds me of some of the researchers I’ve worked for. Smartest people on the planet and yet somehow had me worrying about how they survived day to day on the streets 😂. One lady (one of the highest esteemed immunology doctors in the world) tried to sneak out a lab mouse worth $50,000 in a Chinese food takeout box and she was nottttt sly about it 🙃
Ohhh wait I just saw how chill he was about getting put last. I do think he has good EQ.
@@Cashhhhew She wanted a friend, duh.
@@Cashhhhew as an autistic person I think really depends if you consider autistic people to have high emotional intelligence. Whether he is autistic or not, bluntness and honesty is greatly undervalued by much of the neurotypical population. Its a big misconception about autism that we have low emotional intelligence
Exactly, I totally agree@@Haldered
i can’t even explain how satisfying it was to see the phd lady be ranked last after being insanely cocky and egotistical the whole video.
i feel like it makes the most sense to just be very humble, rank yourself lower whether you believe it or not because it’s a lot less embarrassing to score low when you didn’t rate yourself among the best😂 and it’s win win if you rank higher
I would have just walked to the back not offend anyone 😂
Exactly but the dumber you are the more confidence you have lmao, it would hurt their pride. Not that that didnt happen either way...
Ironic it was the people with "high EQ" who didn't think about that
I felt so bad for sean the whole time! They dressed in the coolest outfit and then everyone just immediately shat on them for literally no reason
It was definetly influenced by the social media manager thing too. They all ranked themselves more due to their intelligence in their specialized interest rather than overall intelligence, seeing the "value of their career as higher." Sean didn't get to say much. 😢
💯
Agreed. I also think Sean has one of the higher EQs. I would guess second under the blonde girl. He was very kind and had high social and self awareness.
TBH I would make the knee-jerk assumption that someone dressed like that wasn't super smart too. He opened his mouth and just seemed like a lovely person too, which surprised me...I judged him as being vapid from the get go but he was clearly the nicest person there.
@@megancurtis9502him, kaylee and tyler are my top 3 pick, but I didn't really get a read on the other guy so I don't know where he would rank.
The IQ test they took was obviously not the most accurate but I would still bet Maria is on the lower end no matter what. Anecdotally, basically every smart person I meet acts at least in some way like that Harvard dude.
Some people don’t seem to realize that knowledge is not the same as intelligence. I think that’s what military guy was trying to get at with his definition, but they were so hung up on education (which mostly increases your knowledge) being a determining factor that they misjudged him and the blonde girl.
Also, while other metrics of intelligence exist (EQ, etc.) it’s kind of irrelevant to argue those in a video focused on IQ since there is no way to factor those into the final ranking.
yeah they all tried to be "inclusive" with their definitions of intelligence, but then threw that out the window when it came to rankings, without acknowledging that education was all they knew about each other. they couldve maybe asked each other questions related to other types of intelligence, or at least played a game of rock paper scissors 😭 like since you know the rankings going to be biased, might as well throw other biases in there to even it out 💀
tbf, Maria would also come last in an EQ test (or by looking at social media, surely she didn't think she would look better than the social media guy?!)
I don't believe in IQ tests but seeing Maria get lowest felt so good
cody wondering why the marine is very analytical and matter of fact is actually so funny
They were all into metrics as a measure of intelligence and all of a sudden when the channel sets a particular one, the IQ test in this case, and it gives unexpected results against their biases, it's all "intelligence can't be measured". One of the best outcomes of a video.
i don't think education is even remotely related to intelligence. they're relying way too heavily on academic accomplishments and not considering different types of knowledge.
and money lol
They correlate very highly lol
@@eeshaanshukla6673 EH. not everyone has the opportunity nor desire to pursue higher education. that doesn't make them any less intelligent.
@@miranndall69it does make them less intelligent, what you just said makes no sense, they are uneducated but they are still intelligent, how? This is the same as saying that someone can be illiterate but smarter than someone who graduated college, it is simply bullshit
@miranndall69 that's not what was said. They pointed out a correlation that I'm more than certain exists, particularly those in stem fields, as that lends itself more to iq tests.
The fact they talked highly about IQ tests and exams but IMMEDIATELLY back paddled after seeing the results of the test and called them unreliable and that they don't capture "everything" is so fucking funny 😂
Maria is genuinely judgemental pretentious, and virtue signally
The high school military guy saying the guy in the bright clothes is the least intelligent and rated him a 10 on confidence is the most backhanded compliment I've ever heard 💀
Him talking about style is the joke
it was funny asl tho
Tbh what Maria said felt more backhanded, I believed him in the sense that it seems like he is really direct and literal to the things he says but idk
He was still pretty down there tho.
At least he said it in the private interview portion instead of in front of everybody like Maria, that was so uncomfortable
when the military guy says "i would also rate myself amongst the lowest" that shows that he can easily understand where they're all coming from, EQ baybey

I like how as soon as they got the results back and were wrong, they started instantly questioning the test 😂
Sada and Maria were super quick to throw that test under the bus when they both got ranked 3-6. Both were pretty arrogant and truthfully, it felt good to see them taken down a notch.
The truth hurts.
It’s interesting that the Marine guy emphasized that educational background doesn’t necessarily mean anything then fell back on “in high school people with neon hair did bad” 😭
That’s not educational background. That’s pigmentational background.
That's not hypocritical, he wasn't implying that doing bad at school means you are dumb at everything, the mention of school wasn't in an "educational" context, it was a physical location he was at in the past. He went to school, then joined the military. That's it, so any stories from before the military would begin "when I was at school" because he doesn't have any other place where he would have met people, besides maybe a sports club or such but that wouldn't really have been relevant to the question.
It's effectively just a saying, a time period, "when I was at school (when I was between 4 and 18)" rather than "if you failed inside the main educational establishment you will fail outside it" which is obviously not what he believes.
What is ACTUALLY interesting was that it upset you enough to write this comment complaining but missed the fact he followed it up by saying that that would make that person probably the most confident person there.
As far as my personal education goes, that statement is true as well. The coloured hair folks and the class clowns were always the dumbasses
Exactly, the fact that he judged someone else's intelligence based off appearance is hilarious especially given the stereotype that intelligent people dress poorly (think about the billionaire 'geniuses'). Btw Sade did a reaction video and mentioned that Tyler said a lot of very questionable/incorrect things that were edited out of the final video. The final cut doesn't really show why they said/voted in a certain way. They didn't vote him low cos of the military (a lot of people in the military are obviously very smart).
Also the ASVAB is (like most tests) extremely flawed and doesn't really measure intelligence. Like all tests, it measures how well you take tests - not intelligence. Certain people are automatically blacklisted from most tests (if they have a learning difficulty for example) despite being very intelligent. I scored 95 and my friends also took it as a joke and all ranked above 90. Lots of people I've spoken to have said that it's not as difficult as people give it credit for.
He didn't say Sean dressed poorly.
He said creative dressers usually did worse in school(logic critical thinking). He was making a guess correlation.
What is worse is Maria saying she is aware of her surroundings, then immediately asking someone if anyone can do their job.
As a teacher I believe in growth learning. You can always become more advanced in your learning. I don’t like to think that intelligence is “fixed”.
That’s interesting, I was never academically successful but at the end of my educational career; I found myself adapting more to my learning style. In my opinion, they might be right, intelligence is adaptability.
It's not fixed, I think we all have different capacities or "ceilings" but we can all grow. That's why people study for ACTs and don't just show up.
Yes me too its all about exploring different avenues and finding different things that work for you. For me i excelled in everything at school but kept failing basic maths, things just had to be explained to me in different ways for me to grasp it, some people just dont have the patience (and that goes for some teachers too)
94 on the asvab is literally insane
That's what I'm saying. Nobody here realizes how impressive that is lol
@@ChickentNugim starting to understand it a bit by what you guys are saying, and he did look really smart
I liked Tyler the most. He seemed to have the best understanding for what the video was about. Usually a good gauge of IQ is by how specific they are and how much they pay attention to details, for example in language and the way they speak. Some of the others were rambling and going off topic too much. Intelligence is your brain adaptability and ability to problem solve and thrive in difficult situations

I got a 65 on the asvab, and I was told I did amazing and could have any job in the military. Getting a 94 Is actually nuts it means he is as smart as the top 94% of the people who took the test. That test was made in 1968 and revised every year to still make it a good standardization. To this day above 50 is average anything above 60 is above average 8 out of 10 fail their first time and you fail at 30. When the scoring was made the had half a million people take it to make the percentages and anything in the bottom 30% would not qualify for the military. Lastly the jobs you can get all fall under what you scored so he could have done anything in the military with a score like that. I qualified for my dream job and I got a 65.
I think you mean top 6%
@@FINETHENpod it can be either or no? Top 94% top 6% idc not changing it I already typed way to much I don't care that much. I was just trying to say that a score of 94 is fucking crazy.
Dude same here! I got a 71 and my recruiter read the score and said "what job do you want?"
@@ExodusRift Top 94% means you scored better than 6% of people. Top 6% means you scored better than 94% of people. If he got 94th percentile, it means he's top 6%
Wait.. did you score a 70 or 65? You said both.
If you really think about it, this goes to show with hard work and dedication anyone can achieve their goals. Even Maria with the lowest IQ (average score) got a PHD. Sounds a bit backhanded but there’s always some positive to these interactions.
You don’t have to be especially “smart” (whatever that means) to get a Ph.D., you just have to work hard at school.
She's average, but high average. I sincerely doubt someone with a lower average score like 92 can get a PhD.
@@Anna133199 I've seen it a lot in my family, most of the people from my mothers side have mental disorders (crappy genes lol) but they're all high achievers who work mostly as professors/doctors- it has less to do with intelligence and more money/dedication, a PHD while hard is achievable for anyone with those two things lol
@@fatimazafar8907 Mental disorders =/= low IQ. Are you sure they actually have low IQ?
University is just a business and humans are just customers. Any dumby can get a phd.
It’s crazy how Cody’s IQ is higher than Maria’s
There’s some poetic justice with Maria placing 6th
Is it just me or is Cody at the top of his game lately
Cody is in his bag lately
gotta fuel the incoming dad arc
This is a reposted vid though
As a person who also is in the STEM field, you don't have to be a genius to get a PhD, you just have to be a decent student. Also, even though I'm not American it's known that just because you're Ivy League doesn't mean you're more intelligent than students from other universities. Edit: spelling
absolutely. these Ivy League kids forget absolutely anyone can be in their place with determination& confidence.
@@luluthesheepI think there also is a little bit of luck combined with that
@@Brusselsprout763 i would say they’re lucky through confidence
@@Brusselsprout763 and more likely than not a healthy serving of nepotism knowing how ivy league schools operate
Damn, 94 on ASVAB is crazy. Apparently the average score is 50 and only 16% get above a 60
Tbf the people taking a test to get into the military are usually those who aren't going to college/have no other options/don't do well in school, so it makes sense the average score would be low
The ASVAB is (like most tests) extremely flawed and doesn't really measure intelligence. Like all tests, it measures how well you take tests - not intelligence. Certain people are automatically blacklisted from most tests (if they have a learning difficulty for example) despite being very intelligent. I scored 95 and my friends also took it as a joke and all ranked above 90. Lots of people I've spoken to have said that it's not as difficult as people give it credit for.
@Random-sk6hm this is how non intelligent people cope
You can easily tell Tyler has above average intelligence, he is straightforward and based in reality, not showing too much emotions towards others. Maria on the other hand is a typical example of a person who did well on all her tests, she can follow the rules set by schools - still smart, but not as much as she thinks she is.
Showing emotions makes you more intelligent.
not really. depends on a situation
@@ipodtouch5963
@@ipodtouch5963having emotions affect your judging ability and thought process is not smart.
This is such a dated mindset. Showing emotion doesn't make you any less logical.
@@randohuman5084 People make bad decisions when they're angry, sad, frustrated etc. In those kinds of moments, you're not thinking very logically. Doesn't mean you're not a logical person otherwise though but I don't think you can deny the fact that emotions affect your state of mind.
I love Cody’s appreciation of the camera shot 😂
Girl that went to Yale: "I 100% disagree, you can getter better at learning"
Two sentences later: "I'm never going to be able to learn another language"
Lmao
she was obviously talking for people withut learning disabilities
Disabilities are a thing, but if you dont have a disability theres nothing stopping you from the ability to learn
exactly what i was thinking
do y'all ever stop and think for like 5 minutes
I know Maria was the obvious villain, but Sada honestly wasted no time in putting the others down
She slightly dissed the military guy but other than that she seemed fine. And even though this ranking tied her in third, an IQ of 131 like she has is incredibly good.
@@adr77510well and she said the only only reason ray was in first was because of Asian stereotypes 😂 as if there wasn’t another Asian in the room
@@nightwarrior6200I found Sada incredibly annoying too, probably more than Maria 💀
Gotta keep in mind she has autism so she might’ve not been super aware of social cues. Still not an excuse to be rude though
@@belf4693i’m also autistic and i don’t think she meant to be rude. although i did not like how she judged Tyler. not that i am saying he is autistic too but the way he talked and thought about things I would have assumed that maybe he was autistic too. she acknowledged the bias that maybe existed ranking the asian man but not that, which i think was inconsiderate of her
I've always found there to be a huge correlation between humility and high intelligence.
Her: "I strongly disagree that you dont get better at learning"
Also her: "I'll never learn Spanish, Ive taken it for 12 years and just can't "
That’s because she’s dyslexic- learning languages is a specific skill people with dyslexia find incredibly difficult because of brain wiring. It doesn’t mean she can’t get better at learning in other ways
thats not mutuaIIy excIusive, especially if she has dysIexia. YaII reaIIy offended by her even tho she said nothing wrong
Ms. PhD saying she has the best EQ IQ and everything really just seems like veiled narcissism lmao
Brb, changing my MySpace name to Ms. PHD real quick
The way she tried to constantly prove to everyone she was the smartest made it so easy to see that she wasnt. A smart person wouldnt feel the need of the constant validation and she was a clear case of the Dunning-Kruger effect
8:09 so she disagrees with the other dudes assertion that you can't get better at learning, but then admits that she's been trying to learn a skill set for 12 years, and hasn't gotten better at it?
Exactly 😂
That part killed me.
And then she said “I have dyslexia so I can’t answer some of the question”💀
@@rynowhiz1271 I missed that 😂😂 I have dyslexia and it has no impact on my ability to answer questions. Except if someone asks me to spell something, then it will have an effect 😂
Yeah because if a dyslexic person cant learn a foreign language, then everyone cannot improve their learning in all aspects. What kind
of flawed logic is that?
We will always love Sean for not putting our boi at 6 again
I love how miss PhD goes on about how Tyler “didn’t take other people’s perspectives into account,” yet he was the only one not equating intelligence with collegiate prestige, and everyone else judged him for not having gone to college.
Everyone else defined intelligence as the sum total of information you’ve crammed into your head, but his definition is one’s capacity to learn, which I find to be a much better definition of intelligence.
I will say, I don’t believe that IQ tests are a true indicator of intelligence, but Maria… SIT DOWN lol
It is though.
@@pinkkfloyddit's not. It's only good for testing if someone is under the avg but anything above 100 means nothing really.
My father is a high school graduate only, and has an IQ of 140. Education doesn't reflect intelligence. AT ALL.
Totally agree with you
wtf? 140 is like super genius level
What does he do for a living?
@@Aaron-kj8dv went to nuclear power school in the 80's and now works for the gov. Even without an associates, bachelors, or PhD. pretty cool stuff. He took an accredited IQ test, said 139. He's brilliant. I wouldn't say super genius, just very very gifted.
well also iq is not representative of intelligence at all. i really encourage y’all to look into the origins of the iq test
I'm a high school dropout and my mom graduated college. When we took the same IQ test, I got a 131 and she got 90. She's still mad about it.
