Before the IQ tests were invented by Alfred Binet in 1904, human intelligence was not correctly measured. Before that year and a couple of more people started to know about the test and how does it measured an almost 100% accurate result of your intelligence quotient. Before people know about this test, they thought about how to measured intelligence by physical appearance but not what really matter that is the mind and how you use it.



Before the IQ test was invented people don’t need to be intelligent to get to a good school, if they were rich and at a good socioeconomic position you could go to a good collage. People had the opportunity to go to assist to a good education only by the skin color, the gender and the economic background. That meant you didn’t need to be intelligence to go to a good school. Before the IQ tests have proven the real intelligence people believed that the intelligence was completely inherited, and it’s kind of true but it’s not 100% sure you will be intelligent only because your parents were.

Before IQ test people believed that white man were more intelligent than the blac k color people, and by the size of the cranium of the person but IQ tests prove that this was wrong and that the size of the head didn’t affect the person’s way of thinking. The IQ tests measured how you’re in each s pecific area and what you need to improve in. scientific research has prove that the black color people are even brighter than white colored.
