Have you actually ever taken iq test in your life, and by this I don't mean some online test? You think that iq tests don't ask questions that person can perform better in if they have had enough practise in that area?education is learned skills
intelligence is inherent mental ability
if you have never studied maths in your life and take a math test then you will get 0 points, complete failing grade, regardless of whether you're a 70 iq drooling brainlet or 200 iq giga genius
an iq test on the other hand doesn't measure memorized knowledge or learned skills, you can do it without ever having done one ever before and will get a somewhat decent measure on your general problem solving skills
iq isnt completely set in stone from birth, its pretty easy to make someone dumber by frying their brains with drugs or subjecting them to malnutrition in early life, but so far there isnt anything that can significantly increase it as far as i know
regarding sex difference in education outcome, its driven mainly by constant decline in boys performance compared to previous generations
reasons for the decline can probably be found in a lot of recent social developments that negatively affect young boys specifically, hard to tell
So boys not doing in well in school is because of social developments, but for some reason women and minorities being less intelligent than white men is just natural? There is no way environment couldn't affect that?
