Connection between Intelligence and Music Preference!
Thursday, March 5, 2009A chart compiled by a Caltech graduate student by the name of Virgil Griffith relates one's music preference to SAT scores. Griffith also created Books That Make You Dumb and WikiScanner.
The chart was developed by analyzing the musicians listed most often in the users' favorite music category and the average SAT score of the school that the users attended in social networking site Facebook.
Have you heard of rapper Lil' Wayne and do you like his music? No, then how about Beethoven? It is the smartest students favorite music with an average SAT score of 1,371 while Lil' Wayne music will bring you to the lowest SAT score in the chart.
Could music really define how smart one's intelligence is? If you think it could, then you better start to listen to Beethoven tunes.
