Okay, is it eventually, or not highly likely?

:eek:

 

I interpret that to mean, don't ask me I'll ask you.

 

Eventually implies highly likely. A better choice of words would have been Perhaps oe Possibly.

 

I missed the part where he equated the two. While I am not a fan of people with degrees - as a starting point, this is a filter - as good as any other.

While a college degree may not correlate with intelligence, the lack of a degree isn't a better indicator of the presence of functioning gray matter .... What filter would you recommend?

It's not that serious to me.

 

Wrong way to make your point. The average college grad is more intelligent, in terms of raw scores on a given measure, than the average non-grad.

The point is that college grads aren't necessarily better at anything, and are probably worse at a lot of things, than the average non-grad. This isn't because of intelligence; it has to do with other personality traits.

 

IQ score above 120, he is not looking for an Albrecht Einstein .

 

Nor is he looking for Albert Einstein.

lol. (spelling)

 

Yeah, that one too. Mine is funnier. I always use this when I meet new people . I usually hit it off with those who say" good one "

 

Common Sense has a lot more to do with trading success than intellect, but having both would be the ideal. In any case all things being equal I'd probably hire a college grad over a non grad myself even though I myself was asked not to re-enroll and so have never finished my degree.
