Studying Math: When Bell Curves Attack

Studying Math: When Bell Curves Attack

The statistical brilliance of this meme is *chef's kiss*! It shows a normal distribution curve of IQ scores with advice on studying math that's perfectly correlated with intelligence levels. The middle 68% (one standard deviation) of people with average IQ get the scientifically sound advice: "exercise properly and practice!!!" Meanwhile, both the lower AND higher ends of the bell curve (those with IQs below 70 or above 130) somehow reach the same incorrect conclusion: "Just read your lessons." It's basically the mathematical representation of horseshoe theory but for study habits! The painful truth is that math proficiency requires active problem-solving regardless of where you fall on the IQ spectrum. Even geniuses can't osmosis calculus through their eyeballs!
