Intelligence is about more than just academic achievement. If they were the same thing, cognitive batteries would just be bombardments of math, reading, and writing tasks.

I can measure the dimensions of an object and run some calculations, or I can drop it in a vat of water and measure the displacement. Both reflect the same thing, volume, even though they are being measured in different ways.

You already said that there isn't even a strong correlation between IQ and SAT scores in post 21, so I don't see why you're now trying to act like they're so similar.

I said that the correlation wouldn't be stiking to an average person. Like, there's no chance someone would look at the plot and say "if I know your SAT, then I have a good idea of your IQ." It's about as high as IQ correlations go though.
