Do you have it? Or are you don't? Can you improve it by trying? Does it matter?

Give yourself a score (1-10) and tell us what you think - let's see if Fabs is overall above average, or just feral

No, generally they can't (see: Dunning–Kruger effect). But it's interesting to know what people think their intelligence is.

And it makes for at least something different to discuss

It’s not only about intelligence it’s about being smart. I’ve been around really intelligent people, who aren’t aware what they’re saying is starting to wind people up, by bragging over their accomplishments.

When a relationship breaks down they’re fine with complex mathematical equations, but not being able to deal with every day problems, like how to make a decent meal, pay a bill or just look after themselves.

My Mother claimed she was stupid most of her life, then my Father had a stroke so she passed her driving test, looked after a severely ill man so ensured he got the correct medication, brought up three kids practically alone and worked at the same time. Then divorced him as he’d been having affairs all the way through their marriage..that’s smart

We know what we experience providing we don't walk around eyes wide shut.

There's also being confident in your own intelligence, which too many people aren't, myself included.

And... we can't forget emotional intelligence.

Oh golly it depends on what how you consider intelligence is calculated.

On academic results

Percieved knowledge

Rote learned knowledge

Personal experiance

Its a tough thing just to decide

I believe we never stop learning , being curious about every thing is a sign of intelligence

I was an academic high achiever which I guess means I have 1 specific type of intelligence our education system likes to measure. I did exploit the choices of options in both my GCSEs and A Levels though and picked subjects that played to my strengths which was mostly Maths and Science. However I'm generally terrible at humaning, my social skills leave a lot to be desired and when I did that Great British intelligence quiz, apparently I'm terrible at reading others emotions . So it really depends how you're measuring. There's always someome else intimidatingly smarter.

I have enough intelligence to recognise my limitations and while some might say I should be higher than that from outside my area of expertise, inside of it I know some utterly mind-boggling people, one or 2 who a supercomputer cannot compete with.

My intelligence is far more practical than is is theoretical.

I guess that depends on what the one assessing deems as intelligence. I am who I am. Im crap at maths and so much more but ask me to take down a tree which is growing over your house and glass conservatory and I ll do it. Its all maths and physics but without the equations and numbers. Now a mathematician could do all his numbers on that same tree, stress points, weight loading, angles but without knowing the tree itself and the conditions and the tools and kit etc the chances are you d be rebuilding parts of said house and conservatory
