Here is a scary statistic for you. Remember that half the people are below average.

Correct for most data sets, for number of limbs a small percent would be below 4, so median would be 4. Most would, in that case, be at the median. Also, it's not exactly half unless the data set is infinitely large. The infinitely large part allows rounding- 100% of whole numbers contain 7. Since whole numbers is an goes from 0 to positive infinity, and the percentage of numbers with 7 rises towards 100% to infinity, never getting there but getting immeasurably close, so you can statistically say 100%.below median. . .

As the sample size (or population) increases, the mean approaches the median for symmetrical (eg Gaussian) distributions.

Assuming you were talking about IQ, then the original statement holds true...IQ tests are normed using a normal (Gaussian) distribution, so the mean = median = mode.

So here's another scary thought...if we are about 320 million in the USA, and the Chinese are about 1.4 billion, then, their upper quartile is larger than our entire population in the US.
I don't think so. These people don't look unhappy, they look like brainwashed lemmings. This is the 8th, not the 9th, and the Californians are outside the frame, yelling, "Don't do it!" As it turns out, we're all going down the hole together... Thanks, guys...
