WTF does that have to do with intelligence? That’s just memorization.
Well, first of all “intelligence” is an incredibly broad concept which is better described as “cognition”, and second: Yes that’s precisely the point, these days they test multiple things so the result is actually fairly useful.
I’m not sure how testing your ability to memorize things is supposed to be crock? Are you saying that memorization isn’t useful, that it doesn’t affect your ability to do mental tasks?
Because i’d certainly disagree with that claim. Having a poor working memory suck big fat donkey balls, it makes life incredibly annoying and basic tasks can be extremely difficult because i literally just fucking forget to do them. Without my phone to write reminders on and set alarms i would need daily assistence just to function at a level that most people take completely for granted.
