This is pedantic. Take it to the logical next step. Words and letters are symbols too. How would someone who can’t read do on the SAT?
> A mediocre student who had studied SAT-style questions for weeks leading up to the test would likely outperform a high IQ student who last solved those types of problems over a year prior.
Would make an interesting experiment, if it hasn’t already been studied. I would put my money on the lapsed high IQ student though.
