Originally posted by Durafei It's definitely true that the smarter you are, the more likely you are to succeed. I'm not sure though that SATs measure that "smartness" factor accurately. You can actually study for SAT; as a result a smarter person who didn't study much, might potentially get a lower mark than a student who is not as smart, but studied much more. So I'm kinda questioning that study.

But define 'smart'.

Take street smarts for example.
A good business person (should) know their business inside-out, knows what the latest demands are and caters to that.

Don't have to be a rocket scientist for that
