Here is a great article detailing a guy who cross-referenced people's Facebook profile choices for music with the mean average for the SAT scores of the university they attended. Now I know the title of this post skews the difference between correlation and causation (yes! I remember something from my psychology classes!). Just because you listen to Beethoven does not mean you will get a 1371 on your SAT. But isn’t it interesting that those who were in the range of 1371 did like Beethoven. What does it mean? Some of my musical favorites Sufjan Stevens, U2, Guster, Radiohead are all on the “high” end. Does that make me smart? Or am I just a poser hoping to look smart? Regardless, this is an interesting sampling nonetheless.
