Logical Mathematical is one of the eight different types of intelligence I highlight in my Innate series. It’s the ability to analyse situations or problems logically, identify solutions, conduct scientific research, and solve logical/mathematical operations.

Imagine a world where children are psychometrically tested at the outset of their education, discovering in which of these intelligences their strengths lie.
Imagine teaching those children based on these discoveries. We learn so easily what we are innately adept in.
Imagine the successful, fulfilling, happy lives those kids could lead if they knew their true vocation early on.
Imagine telling the kids who love playing cards, chess or working with number games like mahjong,
"Your strength is logical mathematical intelligence. One day you might grow up to be a computer programmer, detective or a scientist.
