I’m not talking “emotional” intelligence or “interpersonal” intelligence etc. I’m talking pencil on paper SAT and run of the mill IQ test smart.
Based on my interactions with these groups I’d rank them in this order from highest to lowest overall intelligence.
1: State Police
2: EMTs
3: City Police
4: Firemen (non-volunteer)
5: Firemen (volunteer)
Does this correspond with your experience?
Hmmm, I’m a volunteer firefighter.
Lemme see…if I’m not too stupid to figger this out…
Oh, yeah.
My IQ is about 130, I double majored in Elementary Education and English, graduated with honors, and I have a Master’s degree in Eduation (again, graduated with honors).
Bite me.
You forgot to include prison guards and animal control officers.
What is this a “dummy contest”?
Why not add postman, construction worker and hired goon?
How about who is taller:
Neurosurgeon
Lawyer
Investment Banker
Management Consultant
Astrophysicist
Hmmm… in reviewing the concept this is a pretty stupid OP and I apologize if I offended anyone. I’ll ask a mod to close it.
EMTs.

I’ve never seen astro be mean spirited and second that this was an innocent mistake.
As you wish.
