A genie appears before you and says you must choose to be very physically attractive, but slightly below average intelligence, or very intelligent, but slightly below average attractiveness? Which would you choose, and why?

What IQ is the 95th percentile?
Edit: huh, if this chart is accurate then I’m in the 99th percentile based on the score I have repeatedly received from multiple tests. This can’t be right. I’m not that smart!
I’m officially in the 99th+ percentile, but IIRC your score gets less accurate the farther you deviate from the mean. And a high reasoning ability is absolutely no predictor of success in life.
Plus, I feel like a douchebag when I say shit like, “oh, my IQ is 140…” as if that’s some kind of achievement or worth something all on it’s own.
Right? I never talk about it unless someone else brings it up first and doesn’t have an embarrassing score. LOL. I have a friend who took the test when we were in high school, and was bragging about how he got a 98. He wasn’t smart enough to realize that’s not a good score. The rest of us were like “oooh, that’s greeeeat!”.
