How do you know if you're intelligent?

Question

other than by IQ.

Answer 1

There are all kinds of intelligences. Some are musical-based, some people are more articulate, some have great visual perception and some are very talented in the area of math. It doesn't mean that a person is more intelligent than the next just because they have 'this skill' and the next person has 'that skill'.

Please don't get so bent out of shape due to a number. Some people have a really high IQ score, however, don't prefer to interact with others and can't really relate to people around them. People can have great people smarts, a great EQ (emotional intelligence) though not score great on the traditional IQ test. It really comes down to how the person lives their day to day life with a great moral compass and diligence.

http://www.wikipedia.org albeit not for professional research has info on 'intelligence' and multiple intelligences.

Answer 2

Intelligence is not absolute and it's determined by those who surround you. There are many ways to be intelligent, many skills that you could be gifted in thus being intelligent in that area. Since intelligence is not absolute, you can say and feel that you are intelligent and thus be it. Don't worry too much about it.

Answer 3

It depends what you equate intelligence with. Some say its when you can remember what you are taught, which I believe any parrot or monkey can do, or its the ability to use the knowledge that you are taught in your everyday life!

Answer 4

Go put your hand in a fire. If it burns and you take it away. Consider Yourself intelligent.
