Ashkenazi Jews rank smartest in world

Studies show descendants of Jews from Medieval Germany, throughout Europe have IQ 20% higher than global average

Is it possible for your ancestry, religious affiliation, or nationality to determine your intellect?

According to a study performed by Cambridge University called, “From Chance to Choice: Genetic and Justice,” Ashkenazi Jews have a median IQ of 117.

That’s 10 points higher than the “accepted” IQ of their biggest competition, Northeast Asia, and 20% higher than the global average.

The Ashkenazim make up approximately 80% of all Jews with descendants from Medieval Germany and throughout Europe. The other 20% is made up of Sephardic Jews. I bet you’re frantically searching ancestry.com right now.

Other researchers state results for the Ashkenazim tests show an IQ score a little bit lower than 117, but one thing they can all agree on- they’re still topping the charts.

An interesting observation that the study points out: the scores for “visual-spatial” were particularly low, and ipso-facto the math and language scores are astonishing.

Not to brag or anything, but according to USA Today, “Ashkenazi Jews comprise 2.2% of the USA population, but they represent 30% of faculty at elite colleges, 21% of Ivy League students, 25% of the Turing Award winners, 23% of the wealthiest Americans, and 38% of the Oscar-winning film directors.”

Wait, that’s not all!

According to the Institute for Ethics & Emerging Technologies, “Since 1950, 29% of the Oslo awards have gone to Ashkenazim, even though they represent only 0.25% of humanity. Ashkenazi achievement in this arena is 117 times greater than their population.”

  1. @ ebyjeeby: When it comes to common sense about Israel’s security I believe the the Sephardic Jews have more common sense than the Ashkenazis.

  3. More Jewish smarts:

    Israel to Arm Some Commercial Jets with Missile-Defense Systems

    Due to the increasing threat coming from rocket strikes from both the Sinai Peninsula and the Gaza Strip, Israel has decided to harness planes bound for its resort city of Eilat with anti-missile defensive systems.

    Israel’s defense industry will attach the SkyShield missile defense systems to Israeli carriers Arkia and Israir, following an increase in the Islamic State terror group’s presence in the Sinai, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Monday.

  4. Ashkenazim have earned 27% of the Nobel Prizes awarded to Americans, 25% of ACM Turing Awards, and 26% of the Fields Medals. They account for more than half the world chess champions. Ashkenazic Jews, 2 percent of the US population, make up 30% of elite-college faculty, 30% of Supreme Court law clerks, and 27% of Ivy Leaguers.

    Even more impressively, we also comprise a disproportionate percentage of the world’s greatest porn stars. Or so I hear.

    On a per capita basis, Ashkenazi achievement is truly amazing. It is almost as though we were chosen by God.

  6. @ babushka: Exactly right. Many Ashkenazi Jews are suicidal and ‘proud to be ashamed to be Jewish’. They are often on the secular left and use their ‘intelligence’ to better betray the Jewish people and our Judaic heritage. We need to survive BOTH our external enemies AND the Jewish enemy within.

  7. As an Ashkenazi Jew, I demand a recount.

    The most intelligence?
    Perhaps.
    The least common sense?
    Definitely.

    My experience is that the average Jew is smarter than the average Gentile, but the average Gentile is more practical than the average Jew.
