To speak the truth, for my life, I haven't taken any IQ test, let alone to be trained for the test, given the fact that I have my college degree in China and graduate degrees in US. I never heard any of my friends or classmates, or any people I know in China did that either.
But I know, to get into Gifted Classes, my children did. I know all of their classmates did that too. They are all in US.
tcc7738 (I need a reply, for I'm not sure whether I was really ill informed), did you ever taken any IQ test or trained to take IQ test? Or do you know anybody of your frends, classmates did? IQ test is a test designed to measure your cognitive ability, not TOFEL, GRE, or any thing like that.
If you can 轉帖the articles such as "貝聿銘", "很多錯誤,選擇以後才知道", "我的經歷,從觀望者到觀望者" (which I enjoyed very much reading), I'm sure you are not there to 趟渾水. Thanks.
The most important thing which decide a person's future IS his or her determination, NOT IQ. Give me a break. As to a nation, it's the whole nation's determination, NOT individual IQ , decide the nation's future.

First half of the sentence you can say with confidence, because there are data to support it but for the last half, you have to show some proof. To identify a trait from a race is not as easy as pointing out a physical feature--black hair, black eyes...
However, people are allowed to think. To prove your last half of the sentence might merit a research project for a doctorial dissertation. So go ahead, search for theotical grounds, define the concept EQ, construct a meansurement, collect data, analyze them, and make a conclusion...good luck!
