How intelligent is Big Macintosh?

He's been hinted to be more intelligent than Applejack, and as Pinkie Apple Pie shows, he seems to have a penchant for philosophical discussion. (his and Pinkie's talk about having the courage to jump and the parachute opening is basically a "Disneyfied" version of the leap of faith trope) So how intelligent IS Big Mac, do you think?

Last weekend at Midwest Brony Fest, Peter New said that he considered Big Mac to be highly intelligent right from the beginning (i.e. before there were even bronies), so that's good enough for me :)

Big Mac is kind of a moral compass for some of the characters. Mostly his sisters, but he helps out whenever he can. I'd say he's a lot more intelligent than one would one assume by his exterior appearance.

He strikes me as the sort who's found peace with the world around him and thus doesn't need to speak often (I have family members IRL like that), and that's indicative of a good sense of intelligence. He knows when he needs to speak and just keeps quiet otherwise. Maybe he's a bit rash (blowing out voice too strong) at times, but most of the time he's probably more mature than the Mane Six.
