You think it's better to send a signal that we consciously kowtow to irrational prejudice against us?
Does this prejudice empower us, or disempower us? Does bending to it empower us, or disempower us?
Being right where the prevailing prejudice is wrong is exactly the kind of signal I often like to send - it attracts the right kind of people.
Does this prejudice empower us, or disempower us? Does bending to it empower us, or disempower us?
Taboo "empower". What are the short-term and long-term consequences of accepting or breaking this prejudice? And what is your certainly about your predictions about this?
The latest survey shows that the average LessWronger who entered his SAT or ACT is roughly in the top 0.11%. This is insanely high. For comparison, top 2% can be Mensa members. I do not know the correlation between SAT/ACT and IQ, but I know it's fairly high. Anyway, I'm very curious to see the average score on a real, culture-fair IQ test. Those are the only two tests that are free, online, correct and culture fair, from what I know.

Many people would prefer not to have people knowing their scores. That's great, but please please please do post it anonymously. Especially if it's a low one, but not if it's low because you rushed the test.
JCTI might take a while, so I recommend keeping your answers on Notepad in case you want to leave it and continue later.
Edit: I have included polls, thanks to the commenters.
