    Too little or nothing from the right brain, is the problem of our society
    It is not the problem of the gifted!

        Mar 4 2013: Hi Mr. time bean
        I am not aware of any IQ tests that are available to test one side or the other.
        However life successes are better [my personal observations] if one adds E.Q.
        There are many other aptitude tests that would challenge your view.
        Furthermore, I was referring to “society in general” and not gifted people.
