PS: Howard Gardner wrote the book (literally) on multiple intelligences. He came up with something like seven or eight, most of which escape me at the moment. I know they included musical ability and interpersonal skills, both invaluable assets traditionally ignored by standard IQ tests.
Joan,
FWIW, I totally agree with your assessment of what IQ tests actually measure.
If I remember correctly, (and that's a BIG if;) the multiple intelligences Gardner identified are: linguistic, logical-mathematical, bodily-kinesthetic, visual, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist intelligences.
