Agree with most but some of this is a cope. Jews are naturally fucking smart and got to the top of academia in large part because they have that IQ horsepower to pull it off. It's dangerous to think otherwise, don't underestimate their intelligence

We've been through this before. It's been debunked. Israel's average IQ is like 93. Taking into account their arab population that brings the Jewish IQ up to like 97. If you want to split hairs further taking into account the sephardic and Mizrahi, it results in an ashkenazi IQ of around 102, which is basically average.

You have other Jewish IQ samples from tests of Jewish immigrants at Ellis Island to Army intelligence tests that show them below average and other tiny unrepresentative samples that show them well above average.

They probably score a little better at tasks involving language and memory and some verbal reasoning, and poorly at everything else. It just so happens those first things are given a huge amount of weight on IQ tests because they are easy to test, and they translate well into academic performance.

Anecdotally I've known a fair number of Jews in my lifetime and generally found them around average to slightly below average in intelligence when compared to other whites, but their community are very good at identifying those that are gifted and pushing them to a high level of achievement, which is why they shouldn't be underestimated. They have a culture that values intelligence and academic performance, and while that in and of itself doesnt make them intelligent, it helps them reach their max potential and promote those with ability.

People with actual credentials put ashkenazi IQ significantly higher than you do. Still think you're coping. Anecdotally I know Jews who run circles around whites in academics specifically in verbal reasoning like you say. I was a student of Jonathan Haidt, easily the smartest person I've been around. My first cousins are half Jewish and got into better schools than I did, and one is doing well for himself at Google. I'm not saying this to fawn over them, I'm saying this so we don't get over confident or let our guard down

    The vast majority of Jews seem to be clustered closer together with the overwhelming majority average to below average, but for some reason they also produce a substantial number of outliers who are gifted and perform way above where most of them are at(their elite)

    reminds me of Indians. their IQ distribution seems relatively wide too
