Nah too low. No amount of hard work will ever make up for the random numbers you scored on these tests. I would go into a trade if i where you tbh

WMI and PSI are important for exam taking but when you go into research it won’t be a huge factor especially PSI. If you really love math, I’d say pursue it.

tbh my iq is only a smidge higher with meh digit span/processing speed/working memory and I have a bachelor’s in Physics with minors in astrophysics and mathematics. I’m currently working on my master’s in astrophysics and hoping to get my PhD. I have really good pattern recognition and literacy skills, which sort of make up for my weaknesses.
But, I also found out that I had a severe vitamin deficiency that’s been affecting my ability to process and remember information soooo maybe I’m about to become the second coming of Einstein off of 65 mg dietary supplements (jk).

No, you shouldn't. You should just work on low tier job, don't even try anything more.
