No. LSAT measures primarily verbal intelligence. I did 175+ but am sure I would be a shit coder.

Someone who is in the top 5% of lawyers is about half as intelligent as the average engineer at Apple.

Higher you get up the IQ ladder, the less a measure of real intelligence it is. What I mean by that is overall IQ correlates well with basically every mental skill. But that correlation gets lower and lower the higher you get up.

So 10 people with a 110 IQ will all be fairly similar at abstract reasoning, math, verbal, spatial reasoning, etc.

But, 10 people with 145 IQs (3 SDs above average) will have quite different abilities on each of those. One may be 2 SDs anove average on half, and 4 SDs above average on the other half. ANother may be the reverse. Both are 145 IQ, but they vary a lot in what they are best at.
