Speed vs. difficulty in intelligence tests
At https://en.sigmasociety.net/sigma-teste-light Hindemburg Melao, Jr. writes: In traditional IQ tests, there are usually less than 10% of questions to discriminate at levels above 125 and 0 questions with a level of difficulty appropriate to correctly measure above 130. However, these tests generate scores that can reach 150, 160 and even above 190. However, these scores do not reflect real intellectual capacity, but rather the speed to solve primary questions. They are numbers without any conceptual value, although they have some statistical meaning, which indicates the rarity of people capable of solving elementary questions with a certain level of speed, and this is not the same as having intelligence at the equivalent level of rarity. This is exactly my critique of Mensa: it pays too much value to the speed of solving intelligence test tasks. That's why there are so many members who lack understanding of subjects that are a bit more complex than everyday matters.
