Another Ranking System 20 Smartest Colleges

<p>Or maybe one really smart MIT kid played this game multiple times using different IP addresses at MIT.</p>

<p>Princeton is probably not on the list because the students at Princeton are working their you-know-whats off and don’t have the time to participate in the “study.”</p>

<p>

Some of them participated because they came in at number 39.</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s a formal participatory study anyway, I think it comes from the Lumosity game website.</p>

<p>^^ Caltech is the elite research university that does not appear. I suppose the “working their…off” applies to the students there as well as anywhere.</p>

<p>Let me just say two things -

  1. This ranking system is sort of dumb, and I can’t believe this game really tests raw intelligence.
    and
  2. Why the heck did you have to post this because I went to the Lumosity website, took the free trial, and now I’m hooked and fighting myself not to sign up. Plus if I do I’ll have to fight the temptation to play at work.</p>

<p>BTW - According to this game I’m apparently smarter than I was a couple days ago. The marketers at this website are apparently smart enough to know how to rope egomaniacs like myself in.</p>

<p>

This explains why Caltech isn’t on the list–they probably scoffed at the suggestion that anything might make them smarter.</p>

<p>^ too funny!</p>
