AlexK, I can see your point--IQ gains (and tests) are useless and futile if that's all your worried about. However, Kristoff, I understand what you mean too.
I think that if one can jump 40, 50 iq points, which seems to be entirely possible, the public would just get rid of the IQ test and make a new intelligence test--to them, the test has to be reliable and jumping 50 points is not.
The most effective way to catch the public's attention would probably be something like, "I imagestreamed this much, and I passed this class without studying." Or "I IS'ed so much, now I got a raise," etc.
