That could be, though I understand that in parts of the state in the US where I live, at least according to Garrison Keillor, most everyone is above average, so I expect that some would want (fruitlessly) to take issue with that assertion.
Actually, for America, this is gospel truth writ large: a majority think they are in the top 20% of income strata, a decent (if unreliable) substitute for the practical application of iq.
All this being said, having an iq of 140 is useless if you are ideologically blinkered due to your poor (by design) formation. Fai de bèn a Bertrand, te lou rendra en cagant
