IQ not the sole qualification for prestigious schools

Even though Tsinghua University has denied that she is one of its professors, Wang Jing, who claims to be a faculty member, has still aroused hot discussions among domestic media with her recent comment that only those with a high IQ can enter this top university. Comments:
Wang said that most of the Tsinghua students in her survey have an IQ over 129. There are at least 100,000 students who have an equal or even higher IQ, why do only a few enter top universities? Wang is not doing any serious social study and her conclusion is rather absurd.
