About this ebook

In IQ Myth or Truth, Zeeshan Zafar illustrated how IQ is misunderstood-and why IQ alone is not the predictor of success or failure in your life? Maybe you just know the expansion of IQ (i.e., Intelligent Quotient)-but his extensive research of years in education will help you equip everything about IQ. So, it's high time now to validate everything you read and accept-since it's all about the development of you as a student and working professional.


Furthermore, he believes, who and what assesses and evaluates a learner matters a lot. They're being labeled. Some are intelligent-and others are not intelligent. Some are introverts and others are extroverts. Remember, they do carry out this label. Think from the perspective of a learner-as he thinks from both the perspective-learner and assessor.


Through his book, he wants to help students and professionals-especially parents across the globe to accept the truth and dispel the myth in education.


IQ was never designed to measure Human Intelligence!

This book is for those who have not yet validated their information and knowledge in line with the holistic development of their children and students. It specially aims to those who rely on IQ for success and failure. The writer talks about IQ and the way the test scores are calculated in school. Everyone aims in testing the IQ but human intelligence is multidimensional. So it is essential to figure EI as well. He claims that Emotional Intelligence, Practical Intelligence, Passion, Potential, Resistance and Resilience of an individual needs to be considered.The author has added his personal experiences which gives a subjective outlook. At the same time, he has carried out research to give proper analysis and outcome of the topic taken into consideration. Of all the things this book spoke about, I liked the way it talks the importance of having better sleep. This is something most of us need. The book ends in a realistic way. Despite being a short book, the writer has done a good job.

Insightful Book! I believe this book is one of its kind which is much needed for the holistic development of a child and much needed for the society. I'm a mother and a professional and I could absolute relate with the thoughts and research of the author in line with my own personal and professional development, also my son's holistic development. Honestly, I never questioned and was never taught the true concept of IQ, everyone knew the full form including me. Hats off to author, he beautifully explained "All About IQ and If not IQ, What". I have validated his personal research also and they all came out to be true. This book certainly will leave you with the knowledge required not only for your child holistic development, but also your own personal and professional development. Thank you so much "Zeeshan Zafar" for changing my outlook on real success. And yes..."My Search For Real Success Begins With Your Book".

The book is a short and message packed read which can be devoured in hours at a go. Many experiences shared by the author, make this book relatable and fun to read. Starting from the very first chapter, that is Parent Teachers Meet to the very last, this book is carefully curated to appeal to all ages. The author though being clear, precise and very well researched in his writing yet managed to make this book easy to understand for all. Being in the education field myself, I couldn't help but identify with many sentences and even nod my head along with the author's words. The many quotes and the book's approach towards learning is balanced. It doesn't force anything, in fact guides the person through the information so that the true picture is clear. Not only being helpful for students, parents and teachers, this book will quench the curiosity of any nonfiction reader.

He writes and speaks about 21st century education (Education 4.0)—on a global level—hosted many educational events—and he truly loves what he does. A decade ago, something intrigued him, and he developed a strong interest in schooling— both academic and social-emotional learning (SEL)—also encouraged him to bring science-based (not anecdotal) learning and development paradigms to the light—a holistic approach to a holistic development of a child.


Cognitive, Social, Personality, Developmental, Motivational, and Positive Psychology has always been his interest—and thus he always validates the science behind his own work in education.
