But they don't understand the mental impossibilities of standard deviation. I get immobilized by data fear every time I see a square root sign. It just isn't part of my culture as a member of the mathematically illiterate minority at Harvard...
...intricate math weren't tricky enough, the logic behind the QRR is only more puzzling. The most useful applications of the test are to figure out grade point averages and to determine who blew the curve on a mid-term. I don't think increasing competition in this already too-intense place is responsible. People are a lot nicer when they don't care about grades because they can't figure them...
...QRR Computer test is even worse. Learning a dying computer language on Harvard's arcane computers is just silly. Rather than figuring out how many seconds are in three thousand years (an example from the QRR book), we should have to figure out how many seconds the computer testing process takes. Unfortunately, infinity is a little hard to calculate...
