Today, the US spelling bee is being shown on ABC from 8PM to 10PM
There are 275 finalists
Out of these 30 are of Indian origin
I would expect the rest 245 to be whites
Whites have an average IQ of 105 and are 70% of the US population
Indians are mostly hindus, sikhs, jains and are 0.5% of the US population
Using the spelling bee as a crude bell curve IQ test, I shall now calculate average NRI hindu/sikh/jain IQ
IQ threshold for finalist = 145
White % among finalist = 89%
White Average IQ = 105
Indian % among finalist = 11%
Average NRI IQ = 122
