A software developer, Virgil Griffith has taken it
upon himself to research and study music in
correlation with test scores.
He spent a significant amount of time correlating
the collective musical tastes of certain colleges
and universities with their students’ average SAT
scores .
His result shows that there are particular types of
music favoured by people with lower SAT scores
and a different type of music preferred by people
with higher SAT scores. Virgil Griffith believes this
is not a coincidence, and that certain music is
made for smarter minds.
Virgil Griffith has been undergoing his research for
the past 5 years and releasing new charts on and
off with new music stars using new data.
His latest chart to be released shows that people
who listen to songs by Beyonce, T.I, Lil Wayne,
Hip Hop, Justin Timberlake and a host of others
often get the lowest test scores while people who
listen to Eminem, Kayne West, Alternate Rock ,
U2, Norah Jones and more often get average test
scores. His graph shows that the highest test
scores are often gotten by people who listen to
Beethoven.
