PhD Gets OWNED By Marine’s IQ Score

Funny how Tyler literally told them his ASVAB score of 94 and none of them knew that puts him in the top 6% of people

Prof Richard Feynman said it: “never confuse education with intelligence, you can have a PhD and still be an idiot”.

The Marine’s credentials were excellent. The other “highly intelligent” members of the group had zero curiosity about the Marine’s qualifications or job. They didn’t even ask what CBRN stood for, or what ASVAB even was. They had already made up their minds that he was not intelligent just because he was military and hadn’t attended a university. Speaks volumes to their prejudice against others’ life choices, and their lack of “EQ”.

My dad graduated with a law degree from a prestigious school only to turn away from that career to become a farmer. He would always say, “Don’t let school get in the way of your education.” Still the wisest man I ever knew.

The girl that told a Marine to his face she thinks you grow emotionally in college when he has the fortitude to walk into combat is the epitome of America right now. 🤦‍♀️

For anyone that does not know exactly what Tyler does, a CBRN Defense Specialist is someone that specializes in defending against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats. The average Marine (those with the jarhead tenacity Marines are known for) will not qualify for that position. Tyler is a very intelligent Marine, and the others underestimate him.

Went into the military straight out if high school. Met people with degrees that were dumb as a box of rocks that couldn't learn simple tasks. Other quiet folks were sharp and quick learning. It became a matter of learning everyone's strengths and weaknesses to put then where they would be most successful for the mission. Hate higher education, but love learning on my own.

Asking someone in the military if they think their job is something anyone can do is so disrespectful!!! The amount of not just physical but mental fortitude needed to succeed in the military is so commendable and rare to find.

The best part about Tyler is that as a Marine, he will still defend those people who insulted his intelligence. That is a hero.

She speaks of emotional intelligence while being completely unaware of how smart other people are around her lol

My son was bored in school. Eventually dropped out and immediately tested for GED. Was offered a full scholarship from the state we were in. His IQ is 145, he reads huge technical tomes, is sought after for hiring, but to this day cannot be bothered with "formal" education. Best, he never had to pay off any college loans.

“I’m very much dyslexic, I have ADHD, and I’m on the Autism spectrum” I get so pissed when people list their alleged mental conditions like they’re Pokémon cards.

Imo being a defense specialist in the military at 21 is pretty damn impressive. He had to have worked really hard to get into that position at such a young age.

I'm 3 minutes in and it's clear that the young marine is the most well spoken of the entire bunch.

I have dyslexia when I was in second grade. I literally couldn’t read. That’s why I’m so creative because I would literally make up stories instead of reading the book. The fact that that lady said she will never be able to learn a foreign language is wrong in so many ways I speak three languages and sure I’m not fluent in Spanish, but I can hold a conversation

I employed people for 20 years and NEVER employed anyone who went to university because of their superior attitude and do you know I only ever had to let 4 people go. Passing tests does not give you common sense, good work ethic, loyalty or make you a team player. Love the results.

Tyler getting a 94 on the Asvab is the equivalent to a 1420 on the SAT. He's super smart and the people around him had no clue what getting a 94 meant.

Quite hilarious that Maria can't stop bringing up EQ, the ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict, yet can't nail a single facet of it. In fact, Tyler showcased his ability to do all of these things effectively. He was upbeat, took the negative with stride and saw the humor in it. He was direct and clear with his assessment of what intelligence is to him. He agreed that in their shoes he would probably view himself the same way, empathy. I don't think many words need to be said about a specialized marine overcoming challenges. He also diffused conflict by not taking his peer ranking personally inserting humor in a non antagonizing way. I am fairly sure he would SMOKE maria in an EQ score as well.

Tyler probably has the highest emotional quotient of anyone on that entire video.

This video was immensely amusing. Seeing grad students behaving as though they were still in high school made for some good chuckles. For all the talk about how great "EQ" was, Tyler seemed to be the only one to really display much.
