Nowhere did I say that you didn't deserve any of the scholarships you were given or that your IQ wasn't high. I'm just correcting the wide-spread assumption (that, while you may not believe in it yourself, was perpetuated by your post) that early IQ tests are accurate. They're not. This is why a number of schools have moved away from the IQ test as a method of measuring "giftedness" in recent years.
isn't youth the point in time in a person's life in which their mental capacities are the most (for lack of a better term) pure?
