Speaking as someone who actually has gained an advanced degree... *NEVER*
assume such things correlate with general intelligence. In some case, they don't
even correlate with intelligence in the particular field.

If you ever get the chance, read through "The Official Dr. Science Big Book
of Science (Simplified)". Dr. Science was a charecter on the Fireside theater
for a while, and the book is great. Describes things like how to do genetic
engineering in your bathtub, using only household chemicals (it involves moldy
bread, hair care products, and the hair debris that collect on the drain as raw
materials).
