are crazy people typically low IQ? I mean legitimate crazy like schizophrenia or bipolar. The ones I have encountered IRL were all really dumb and did a lot of drugs during their developmental years.

Why the fuck is materials engineering both 104 and 129?

Schizophrenics tend to have lower average IQ, even before the first onset of schizophrenia. Obviously bright ones do exist but the John Nash-style insane genius practically doesn't happen.
For other illnesses like depression or bipolar or OCD I don't think there's any link to IQ, although obviously cognitive ability will decay significantly in the middle of an episode.

You do realize cognitive deficits is one of the most common symptoms in schizophrenia?
I believe there was a neuropsychologist at MIT who developed a method for improving cognitive capacity in severe schizophrenics, but then he found that their measures of well being all lowered due to making more upward social comparisons.
