There seems to be a majority of us that are genius-slackers or just imreallysmartidontgiveashittoachievemypotential people around

In high school: slacker...

In college: Mathematics major graduating in August and studying to take the first Actuarial exam in May...

But, its all relative. I can't spell to save my own life is glad this forum has a spell-checker program and I can't pronounce a large portion of the words I come across in less its math related...

Yeah, I'm a nerd.

ehh i guess i am smart but also lazy
IQ of 140, 2150 in the SAT from studying for three days right b4 the test (my first practice test was a 1920 so i rose 230 points in 3 days of self-study o.O)
buuuuut i only average like 3.6 GPA 3.7 or 3.8 if you include freshman year (im a junior)

You're taking the actuarial exam's? Well, good luck to you, personally theres no way I could deal with that much statistical based math.

I'd disagree, its just getting insanely good grades with next to no effort in the school system is beyond easy for anyone with an IQ of 3 digits. Even if it wasn't easier to get good grades than it was in most school systems say 20 years ago (and it is due to massive standardization, meaning its pretty bleeding cut and dry on what you are going to get marked on), with the internet as a tool that can do the equivalent of hours of research in a library in less then 30 minutes, given average intelligence in the current schooling system how could you not feel like a smegging genius? Besides when you look at it the vast majority of students that go to high school or lower don’t actually try that hard in their courses, so its only natural to find a lot of people who feel that they are pretty damn smart, yet don’t get the most amazing grades because they don’t try. It's my personal belief that report cards shouldn't show the student average in the grade, but the standard deviation, a hell of a lot more useful to know where you stand, remember kids 80% is the new 70%. (Note: Canadian school system)

Oh and how smart am I? Well I can both add AND subtract for relatively small values, eat it.

Hmm, it just occurred to me most of my posts are spiteful, does that make me a spiteful person?

Edit: Remember folks 2+2=5 for extremely large values of 2

Double dino to micro crimp!!!

I'm considered smart by dumb people.
I'm considered above average by smart people.
I'm considered mediocre by geniuses.

Lucky me

I take ap classes and do generally alright (90-ish) but in Geometry I'm failing. Lol.
Averaging my grades I have an -A theres only 50 students in my grade and they're really smart, I'm probably considered one of the stupiest in my grade.

Your face is dented.

No. You get into high level classes if you care about getting into high level classes enough. Intelligence has almost nothing to do with school and test taking ability, that's just a conception that appears because school is mandatory in our society. In reality, you can be a genius and get straight Fs. School is about effort and work habits rather than actual potential, although I'm sure that there are some people that are limited by their intelligence.

though most of the time people are in high classes because they are smarter than the rest. Being in a smarter class tells u that u are smart. Even if there are people that think themselves as a genius, it may only be self proclaimed. Most of the time it works like that but there are exceptions

Once again, not really. Most of the time people are in higher level classes because either they care more about school or are better at it. Once again, being in a higher level class doesn't actually say much about your intelligence, nor do higher grades or test scores. All of those things can be improved by getting better at the skills involving them, and while it's arguable that it is more intelligent to develop those skills, using them does not make you intelligent. It just makes you good at school. Two utterly different things.

And I do say this as someone who frequently takes high level classes and gets top scores on tests and the like, so it's not as though I'm trying to validate my intelligence or something. It's just that intelligence doesn't really have anything to do with school. If you want to look at how successful people are, then yeah, you'd be right, but you can be an idiot and be in a high level class. I know plenty of people like that.

Well yea they may act like idiots but they do good in work.

And I believe that school is like a test that tests ur knowledge. Even though u may be smart and take a low class, you could still lose intelligentice cause your mind would turn adjusted to the course your taking. Thus u could actually lose knowledge

I do five high level classes and one regular class each day. Yeah, there are a few stupid people in the high level classes--hard workers and that's all--but only a small number--of the forty-three students with whom I share these five high level classes, there are five that I would qualify as Average or Below Average; everybody else is doing better than the vast majority of people. On the other hand, the only reason the regular class I'm in has any smart people in it is because of scheduling: It was the only elective available to about four of us kids in the higher level classes, including me; hence, there are four smart students in the class.

In short, while higher level classes don't guarantee anything, probability-wise, people in higher level classes are going to be smarter than people who aren't.
