Please elaborate. Just curious as to how you quantify this. Any test scores you would like to share?
Not really? I mean, I'm not even talking about some quantifiable amount here, so it's not like I particularly feel that I have anything to prove in this arena. I mean, I used to score in the 90-95th percentile on most of my standardized tests in school, at least, but I don't honestly think that's such a great measure of intelligence anyway.
I mean, you're free to disagree with me if you'd like, but I at least operate under the impression that I'm pretty smart, and it hasn't particularly failed me or made me look like too much of an ass so far, near as I can tell. I suppose it's entirely possible that I'm just stuck in a Dunning-Kruger delusion and I'm actually a complete idiot, but if that's the case, I've also managed to get very unlucky and had a lot of complete idiots around me to validate my self-assessment.
