Some reality checks for second and third generation IQ
When the sikh and gujurati immigrants entered the UK, they initially tested as low iQ
But that was a temperory reduction due to socio-economic factors
In 2 generations these same groups have improved their lot to above the whites and their IQs are in the white range and academic performance above white
It is time to take a reality check and see how many of the creamy layer
of the OBC and Dalit castes have managed to raise themselves and does the creamy layer still need quota
If the creamy layer still needs quota, after 2-3 generations, it points to a genetic IQ deficit
The tamil nadu board exams are actually misleading
when they claim closing of the IQ gap
Here is why, the top 75% of the brahmins have left
and only the bottom 25% remain
next the tamil nadu board exam tests for memorisation rather than IQ , like the IIT exams
So the question then should be how do the non-brahmin castes in tamil nadu fare in the IIT entrance exams
And if they really believed that the IQ gap has closed, they would remove the quotas, but they dont
