Ench: That's an interesting philosophical point, because how do you define 'Intelligence'?

I would say that the IQ does measure intelligence, but only certain aspects of it (such as numeracy, logic, literacy, vocabulary) whilst ignoring other aspects (such as musical, kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal). The result being that the IQ test is only revelant in certain contexts.
