Wonderlic and ASVAB are bottom of the list.

I’d go with IQ Test and SAT/ACT over AP testing. A lot of the AP testing when I was in school was written.

The SE exam. ~30% pass rate, over (4) 5.25 hour exams of nothing but lateral and vertical load analysis and design.

You are conflating knowledge with intelligence. The most intelligent living person today might not be able to answer the first question with any level of confidence.

SAT/ACT - Both are academic aptitude tests

IQ Test. The WAIS-5. *The gold standard for measuring IQ

wonderlic - Hybrid of aptitude, intelligence and achievement

ASVAB - Occupational aptitude test

State standardized testing - Achievement test as in acquired knowledge

AP testing - Achievement test as in acquired knowledge

You think an exam that has ~30% passage rate for people that have studied for years to prepare for it is the best intelligence test for the population as a whole? How exactly is everyone failing the test, except a select few that studied for it for years, going to differentiate the general population’s intelligence?

This is further proof engineers need to stick to engineering and let normies run the rest of the world.

Intelligence doesn’t mean shite if you can’t execute properly.

Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) is the gold standard. I took it once and putting those blocks together was a bitch.

Probably OT post count per day. More posts/day = more stupider.
