Studies of IQ scores over the past few decades show otherwise.
IQ scores are falling and have been for decades, new study finds
SAT scores also have been declining, despite the fact ETS keeps dumbing down the test. In addition, numerous states like NY have dropped their testing requirements to get a HS Diploma. NY high school students will no longer need to pass Regents exams to graduate under new plan
Anecdotally I can tell you that during my years working with 1000s of kids, I observed a steady decline in their critical thinking ability. Among the many things collapsing in our society, intelligence is one of the leaders.
