Einstein had a hard time remembering his address and had a hard time doing other easy things. I know someone who is advanced in math and can solve the rubiks cube, but it takes him way to long to put his shoes on, he has a hard time applying logic to real world situations and has a hard time talking to people. Why is this?

There are different types of intelligence. Some people are smart at academic things, giving them a high IQ score. Others are more intelligent about practical things, but not good academically, giving them a low IQ.
Some people are well- rounded and able to do practical things and academic things. It all depends on their own experiences and abilities.

I asked this same kind of question a few months back and got a lot of great answers, i quite understand now. You see, i lived with this guy who was considered a genius. At first, i felt real dumb around him, but soon i found him extremely funny, although i alway turned my head or left the room to laugh.

i had a friend that was super smart but i had to teach her how to drive and she did great on the mountains or hills but when it came to driving straight she couldn't hold the car straight. their brains are wired to make the hard simple and the simple hard. have a party at your house and invite friends to help him get to know people one on one
