I'm a film student and I filmed my second student film back in May, but I haven't edited it yet...the thing is...I can't think of a title for it...mainly because it doesn't have a plot...it's a comedy...and the story follows a student who is smarter than all his peers...it just goes through his average day dealing with stupid people...and I can't think of a name! What's a good strategy of coming up with a film with no real plot?

Forget the name, you should be more concerned that, as a film student, you said the movie has no plot and then proceeded to tell us the plot. If a story has a beginning, middle and end - it has a plot. I think you should hold off making more movies until you understand what a movie is. PS for a title how about 'I don't understand this movie and need to study more.'

Call it "Life with Charlie"
Even though there's nobody named Charlie in the movie. It will make people think you're a genius because they don't understand what the name means. It meshes with the plot; a smart person dealing with idiots.

Not to be picky, but you just described to me the plot. Your movie does not have a story is what you mean to say. The term "plot" referes to the series of actions that we see taking place. There does not need to be a throughline or any unity for a plot. There does need to be throughline and unity for a story though.
My suggestion: "The Storyless Plot"
I think it is a good play on words and it could go far.

Call it "A Film With no Plot" or "Sorry you guys are stupid" and you will be surprised at your responses.

What you can do is look for some song that you use in the movie and make the title a spoofed version of that song. just an idea, good luck!

Name it, "A Day in Da Life of the Smartest Guy no one Knew".
it has an existentialistic feel to it...(ie: see Catcher in the Rye)

How about a shot of that infamous T-shirt with the slogan: "I'm With Stupid"

Name it after the main character, or some trait of the main character.
In this case, something like "Brainiac," or "I.Q. More Than You." Ok, those are dumb, but you get the idea.
