Then I tried one section of the military General Classification Test
(GCT) called Spatial Relationships. It was multiple choice with no words,
just pictures of two dimensional patterns you had to mentally fold and
rotate. Bingo. The correlation was over .90. Notably, the highest scorers finished
fastest, in as little as half the allotted time which was 12 minutes for
20 questions. The instructions said no one was expected to finish in 20
minutes.

Very interesting. Why would such a correlation exist?
