Should IQ be a requirement?

I thought IQ exists regardless of requirements?

oooh sorry. The question and poll didn't pop up the first time. Weird.

No. IQ doesn't determine success. Sure, there is a point where a person's IQ is so low that they can't possibly handle a job well. As long as you're at least average, I think you should be allowed to achieve whatever you can. (So says the man with a significantly above average IQ.)
