According to a recent study compiling factors like average IQ, graduation rates, and test scores


I imagine states that have developed huge tech sectors benefit.

Interestingly enough, the study from a university in Sydney, Australia.

Not sure what biases would come into play there...

If you'll notice, big states with low population stats per area did well (Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, etc). Kind of like the country of Australia. Just saying.

Really? Have you honestly never seen the southern stereotype in action?


Yes, typically by people who are just as dumb or worse. Such a thing doesn't require intelligence, only arrogance.

Thank WashU, which is a top 50 school in the nation and globally, for keeping Missouri afloat.

I'd like someone to compare that list to a list of states by racial demographic to prove systemic racism exists, of course.

North Dakota and Montana aren’t exactly academic powerhouses, but look at the demographics…
