ProfD Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 The Wonderlic test shouldn't be a problem especially for someone who's attended college. Maybe the athletes should be better students too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 @nels Given the lack of moderation on the comments, it seems like the article was written purely for the sake a giving racist trolls something to to use to advance the notion of "racial" inferiority. I wish they would simply take sports out of schools, it is way out of control today. The athletes should be paid and the pretense of attending school should just be dispensed with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nels Posted January 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Unfortunately, the Wonderlic test tells a lot more than some people want to hear or know. IMO, a fairly large major / majority of black people in America are deficient in the cognitive skills that are necessary to navigate life, business, challenge and much more. Many black athletes choose their profession as an out that compensates for their lack of intellect, opportunity, desire, ambition and the like. Until one can immerse themselves in their potential and capacity instead of their deficiencies and deflections, little progress will be made in achieving social parity and economic success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mzuri Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 ************************************************************************************ I never heard of the Wonderlic test, so I found some online and took a practice test. The practice test was timed, allowing six minutes to answer twenty-five questions. They were the typical questions of any other I.Q. test, such as determining which words were similar in meaning, solving math puzzles, and simple riddles. None of this is rocket science and Black people need to level up if they can't pass a simple intelligence test. Our children need to hit the books and smarten up, and stop using the excuse that books and learning are for white people. ************************************************************************************ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
