Well Val, they do qualify. You have many of the highest income earners in the country, most educated by capita.

And I think what I described with puzzles etc could be considered hot housing. Many undereducated and lower income homes just don't do this. And as Austin pointed out in his contraction on race IQs. You place a different race child in an upper income home, you get a different IQ outcome.

So what really is the definition of hot housing? Preparing your child for life -- which really means school, or a test to get into the best schools?

I know I start a big debate there. But the IQs in NYC due skew to the upper ends based on the percentage by capita of kids qualifying for Hunter, above 98th percentile on the SBV. Particurlarly on the upper west side.
