Anyone who is not a retard can be a successful college graduate and go on to do a Ph.D and do research, especially in STEM fields. Besides that, there are also supposed "greats of all time" --- this is a complete lie, and just means that they've taken their interests seriously for a long time at a high degree of concentration. Discuss.

1. True
2. Secretly? I don't know about that, Operation Paperclip isn't much of a secret, the fact that Hilbert first came up with general relativity isn't either (doesn't change the fact it's just highly theoretical without much evidence backing it up and actually contradictory evidence). Furthermore genius minds such as Teichmüller died for the cause.
3. Don't know about that but would make sense

The advantage of being discovered and nurtured early has significant compounding effects.

I would add this, yes. I was in the gifted programs up through high school, but still missed out on doing Calculus and advanced maths early because my parents never imagined such a thing. I ended up graduating high school a year early and then noticed that the only difference between "bright" people and "prodigies" is that their parents trained them in higher up stuff early on. This is the only difference so technically a "bright" person can still "become" genius etc.

I knew higher education was full of low-tier midwits, but I didn't know it was that bad.

Graduating and doing research are different activities. To some extent getting good grades is in opposition to developing proper scienctist skills. I would say that in every average high school class (30 people) there would be ~1 person suited for scientific work. By that I mean, such person has necessary personality traits and some level of intelligence.

Greates of all time get really lucky most of the time.

Disagree. Genius-tier intelligence (140+ IQ) is something you're either born with or you're not. It cannot be acquired through hard work. Sure, midwits can make some scientific contributions through rigorous studying and working, but it will always be dwarfed by the work of geniuses. Talk to someone who is ~110 IQ, then to someone who is ~135 IQ or higher and tell me you don't honestly notice a significant difference.

It is said (often by the greats themselves) that most of the greats would not pass college these days.

Colleges are now a waste of time. You end up being taught by people who have never done anything in practice, who were taught by those who had never done anything in practice, teaching you courses made by people who had never done anything in practice. It's like learning biochemistry, the biology of sensory perception, physics of cutting, the principles of electric heater, and then after years of this cutting up an onion once, when you want to become a cook.
