CalTech graduate student, Virgil Griffith, conducted a study relating music preferences with SAT scores. Results found that no particular genre stood out above the rest, but according to the chart the “smartest students” listen to Beethoven and the dumbest listen to Lil Wayne. So what does this chart really say? Is our intelligence affected by the music we listen to or do we choose the music we listen to based on our intelligence? Whether you think it is accurate or not, it is something interesting to think about. Where do you sit within the chart?
