are you smart ?

[KatonRyu 1,033]

I don't know. I once scored 130 on an IQ test and I pick things up quickly, but I can't help but feel that everyone else is at least as smart as I am, and probably smarter. I'm very interested in stuff like history, biology, and physics, but I suck at math so my interest in those things is purely limited to the pop-science side of things. I'm probably just average.

I abide by the C's get degrees philosophy so you can probably tell I'm not very smart

[LeafFerret 3,382]

I never really paid attention at school back in the day. (wish I did.) So I mostly got Cs for my grades.

[Lucky Bolt 35,064]

I can be smart about things I wanna be smart about, otherwise no. 

[Here No Longer 5,276]

I didn't really try much in high school and still ended up being an A student, and one of the few that took AP Calculus. I just did it for the #3!! of it.

I don't know. I have a 4.0 GPA so far in collage, but that's about the only real talent I have.

[Meson Bolt 2,648]

This is a very interesting question, and I've wanted to answer it for a while now.

No.

[TheRockARooster 51,601]

I’m a smartass.

Is that the same thing? ^^

[Xe__or 4,377]

Not wanting to sound arrogant, but I do think I am pretty smart; I'm good academically ( enough to be accepted in prestigious universities), and in real life, I know how to handle people so they act the way I want. But it's not enough; a problem I have is that I always want to be smarter, all the time.

I basically want to outsmart everyone

Maybe not the same thing, but soooo much better!

I want to be smart, but every time I try, I am always seeing a step smarter than the step I am currently on.

[ExplosionMare 18,065]

I hope so 😅

(clearly not smart enough to pass character limit argh!)

I am smart but I don't want to brag about it.

Not very smart, but when it comes to maths about all difficult formulas, i am like:

i am so smart i am so smart

[Ittoni 538]

I've already answered but I'll answer again. Yes! And I'm not afraid to say it anymore. I'm smart. At least smart enough to know that regardless of how much I know it's still very little compared to how much more I can learn and how much there is to discover. 

[DubWolf 17,264]

The heck does smart even mean. It's more than just good grades in school. I was in the top of my class in high school but plummeted in college and not even employed in the field I graduated in. I've since moved on towards something I do enjoy doing.

 

Anyone can call themselves smart or dumb and maybe be wrong.

I got a 2130 on the SAT (750 math, 690 reading, 690 writing) my first time taking it, and didn't do any preparation/practice for it.

I got good grades (A's and B's) in high school (mainly in honors and AP classes) with little to no effort - the only classes I studied for were biology and AP US history (since they required memorizing a lot of details).

In college, I majored in computer science, got minors in math, philosophy, and cognitive science, and graduated with a 3.2 GPA - I put more effort in than in high school, but still didn't try very hard.

I work as a programmer analyst now, and was told in my performance review this summer (about a year and a half after I was hired) that my results are second to none.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions from that as to whether or not I'm smart.

[AppleButt 8,675]

I think I am pretty emotionally intelligent.  
 

Academically not so much lol.  I failed out of college so bad lol. 

[Fluttershutter 2,493]

Really I'm just smart enough to know how stupid I am, which is smarter than most people.

[Vefka 1,499]

I think I'm average but sometimes I have that "I'm smarter than majority" feeling. If you're about academic smartness, I was A student in 7-9 grades without much effort, but now I'm just average because I can't care less about subjects like history, social edu, etc

[Splashee 28,564]

I have never managed to get an IQ test, and I feel like I would fail it because of trick questions. I see myself as "smart when needed to be, but stay stupid to conserve energy"

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

While my IQ is high and I've graduated with high grades, having graduated university signing up for masters study aiming for a doctorate I have never been one to self proclaim I'm smart. Mostly as it sounds dumb to think of yourself as smart to me that is, also as how do you define smart if it's grades then sure if it's IQ sure. Yet that does not take into count creativity or people who are intelligent on other levels. 

Therefore I have always thought it is difficult to truly define it and to self proclaim yourself to be this and that doesn't make much sense. Meanwhile how would you prove yourself to be smart and even so there are some who are smarter in other fields then you. I believe people would think I'm smart due to having finished high levels of education from respectable schools and universities, yet I myself see myself more as versatile I'm good at many areas of study both the intellectual capabilities but also in the physical capabilities to work and create with my own hands. Versatile intelligence is what I would say, so am I smart well I think most people if not everyone for the majority are smart in different fields so sure I do.
