What use of a high iq if you don't have the ei to go with it?

Gosh, besides Jeremy Bamber seeming to have a relatively low/average IQ, he’s got a double whammy with total lack of emotional intelligence too!

That must account for why he blew his top when Daisy refused to cough up thousands of pounds...and then shouted to her face “I never liked you anyway!!”

He’s well and truly stuffed, isn’t he?!

[ISpyWithMyEye]

Sorry Spy, I can't agree with this. I did a BA in psychology and to pass, not only do you have to understand complicated and abstract concepts, you need a good sound knowledge of how statistic work and how to apply various different statistical criteria to validate studies. The social sciences are used to find reasons why certain things happen at a given time and be able to validate their findings.

Actually, Caroline, I didn’t mention psychology — psychology is more of a science than it is SS.

Nick Clegg has a degree in Anthropology:

So?

My best friend’s father does too, and he also lectures.

I find anthropology extremely interesting, but it isn’t a science.

[ISpyWithMyEye]

Anthropology is important in today's world too.  It was probably partly the reason Nick Clegg was recruited for a senior role at Facebook.

Are you being serious?!

Everyone knows that a degree proves you’ve the ability to dedicate yourself to working hard, doing research, and assimilating knowledge.

Huge global companies take people on who have degrees that have no bearing whatsoever on the field they’re starting in😳

BS's in psychology rely heavily on biology, chemistry and maths too.

Chemistry?

Really?

And where does maths come in?

[ISpyWithMyEye]

There is some biology/chemistry from brain study and I mentioned the maths aspect which is mainly stats. It is in no way an easy option fort a degree and if anyone goes into it expecting that, they will most likely fail.

I know Psychology is more of a science, and I did say that, Caroline

I took up psychology myself many years ago, but dropped out despite enjoying it immensely, as I simply didn’t have the time to attend college and should never have started, on reflection...I took far too much on as I was so busy at that time. So I’m well aware it’s a highly skilled degree to take on.

I never meant Psychology when I spoke of Social Sciences... I don’t see it as part of a Social Science, whatever umbrella it comes under. But there are several SS degrees that are easy and simple...

Anthropology is important in today's world of social media and will become even more important with covid and everyone expected to change/modify their behaviour.

Chemistry?

Really?

And where does maths come in?

Yes.  Maths for research and stats.  Chemistry in terms of the brain, hormones, nervous system.

What did you you make of Judge Knowles comment regarding Bamber Holly?

“Mr Bamber has unrivalled knowledge of the case."

Based on my correspondence with him I beg to differ.

I agree with your last point Spy, after my degree, I had a career in IT, not psychology. However, I think you should remove the word 'simply' from your comment on degree's. There is nothing 'simple' about it.

Wow, how he MANIPULATED you, Holly!

Can’t you SEE what he was doing? He was deliberately making out he believed Nevill wasn’t shot upstairs to try and make himself look unknowing! Quite a different ACT with the police, wasn’t it? All arrogant and cocky...

Besides being TOLD Nevill was shot on the landing by police and ballistics, and the court, he knew anyway — he shot them! And why would he disbelieve them if he hadn’t shot them?

Oh, c’mon, Holly....read your post back and see how  he’s manipulated you — and so easily too 🤯

So basically, Jeremy is saying he was at the soc — and we all know he didn’t go into the house until AFTER the police cleared EVERYTHING. So how can he be so sure the police were lying about who was shot where and how many times? The only way to know that is if he was there when he shot them all! 

PS: Sorry about your moths. I hope they didn’t get to feast on your cashmere 😭

There's nothing simple about A levels either and to get into Russell Group unis today you need the A levels for most courses.

How can you compare Neanderthal times with the 21st century?

It’s two entirely different worlds.

Are you suggesting we should revert back to living like they did in the Stone ages?
