Intelligence can mean a lot of things. I mean the most common type everywhere assumes it means it academic/intellectual. However you got to be mindful of other types of intelligence like emotional intelligence for example. Some people may be intellectually the cleverest person in their school yet can't perform basic life skills like socialising or don't know when they're upsetting/angering people. Same the other way. Someone could be less academically inclined then others, but has a high emotional intelligence. I mean I'm not gonna lie but I would rate my own intellectual intelligence above average, to which some people think is like super-brainy or something? I'm just above average, I wouldn't go so far as to calling myself a genius. But then I don't know if my emotional intelligence is high. I could improve on that a lot. Some people are superior in intelligence than others, but that doesn't necessarily make them better. Superiority is judged differently to every individual. The point that I'm trying to make is that you can never truly judge someone's intelligence. But the question is do you need to?
