4. Legal Occupations
Lawyers argue for a living and to formulate a cogent argument, one needs quick wits, something an average lawyer certainly does not lack. Law schools and bar exams are demanding, hurdles that only people with above average IQ can conquer. For a good reason too. A lawyer who does not possess the ability to present a smart argument will be unable to be successful, and that is why this occupation sits at the number four spot on our list of 10 professions with the highest average IQ per employee.
