I assigned the numbers (38,16,14) to letter rows already containing both digits of the numbers needing to be assigned. Did everyone else notice that?

You just need to complement that with convergent thinking to analyze alternatives and select the most likely one. 2) IQ is a critical component of intelligence if you want to be an engineer or similar quantitative jobs. The frontal lobes allow you to understand your environment, adapt, set goals, plan, execute your plans...so they are critical for everything. hello jjj,

I guess that means ...I have a good frontal lobe? I am generaly creative and can think of many possibilities to an answer...that is why I usually do badly on multiple choice because I see patterns that are ....possible, but not the 'correct' ones. yea…I did this problem in 7 seconds yet my IQ is 135.
