IQ test's in general aren't a very accurate test of actual intelligence more a test of general knowledge, some people can be naturally intelligent with say maths but no english but their score would suffer greatly through an IQ test but they are still very intelligent people

mathematical ability is a universally accepted marker of intelligence. if one is proficient in math chances are they will excel in other areas. of course you have savants and the like but these folks are veeery rare.

meh....i know people who excel in math but they're one dimensional. they're not very english proficient or creative and follow very logical approaches.
i also know plenty of people who are good at math and completely lack social skills, thus not allowing them to succeed much in life.

intelligence seems to be such a vague term sometimes.

street smarts(experience) + (learned education)book smarts = ultimate intelligence
