What continent has the highest average IQ?
All the people who live in Antarctica are generally scientists. Several countries have research stations set up in Antarctica for things ranging from geology to astronomy. Since by multinational treaty no single country owns it, it's a good place for multinational research. That makes all the people constantly living on the continent the smartest community on the planet.

There are no permanent residents in Antarctica, so this continent should not be an answer choice. I agree about the scientists however.

I would have said North America until I realized the Republicans actually voted for this Trump fool.

Agree with no permant resident postts

I am Scottish Canadian and cannot understand why the comments degenerate into a political slaging match

Oh no! I've been negatively influenced by bad spellers, and writer's. I wrote their instead of there. Oh well, I'm probably the only one who noticed!

Daniel Hadley, Antarctica has very little snowfall. It just has lots of very old snow. The one with the most might be North America

Eileen Owen, I just arrived at the question. I noticed the error, but they're so common, I overlook them. Besides, typos keep cropping up in my own comments despite my efforts to prevent them. So why complain?

Tricky question since Antarctica has no permanent residents but has a lot of scientists.

Trick question or not I definitely agree on it. Besides, there is no such thing as highest average IQ in just one continent or place.

Antartica it should not be valued choice because there are not permanent residents 👎

Does it really matter which continent has the highest IQ? Kindness is a far greater human quality.

Asia and Europe dominate the list, with Japan taking the top spot thanks to its high placing across all three metrics where it came fifth overall in the school test ranking and sixth overall in both Nobel prizes and current IQ

That was a bogus answer! Scientists may stay in Antarctica & study it but they are NOT residents. As far as I know, there are no permanent residents in Antarctica. I gave this a thumbs down.
Ed Rodriguez
scientist are not originally from there .

Janet Graham, I disagree. It assumes there are permanent residents and that is not accurate.
aaustin
sarahhvf, Google it! There are no permanent residents on Antarctica. The scientists that go there have a declared Country of residence and it's not Antarctica!
aaustin
I challenge this question! There are no permanent residents in Antarctica. The people who spend time there are all researchers living there temporarily while working on a research project. Therefore, with no permanent residents, the continent cannot be a possible answer. And this is a Quiz that I paid for to get extra points. Getting conservative correct answers gives me a higher score. A penalty to the Quizzclub!

Good Q and A!

Read "Big Dead Place". It was written by someone who is not a scientist working at McMurdo Station. A lot of people work there who are mechanics,cooks,maintenance etc. Most don't stay for the winter (June-Sept.) but it's a busy place during the summer season.
