So walk me through how they came up with China's IQ score, please.
Do international researches show up in Beijing, go to the CCP headquarter, and say "give us 50 subjects to test"? Or do they go to a Chinese university? Or do they recruit volunteers through an ad in a newspaper?
You see where I'm getting at.
IQ clearly varies a lot between individuals, let alone the ability to take the test; people who have already taken an IQ test before have a big advantage.
Therefore how the sample is selected makes all the difference.
I'm sure I could go to Nigeria and, if I look hard enough, I should be able to find a bunch of niggers with 120 IQ.
If you are really curious, rather than reinventing the wheel here is a quick succinct article discussing the methodology and implications. It also links to some of Lynn's studies where the methodology is laid out in a more academic manner:
