intelligent people don't need to study hard to understand something
It's more akin to confirming what they intuitively know and crystallizing it into to something more concrete
you can show an idiot something a 1000 times and they'll eventually get it
show a genius something and they'll understand halfway before you even finish showing them once

So explain to me why it takes people decades of work to solve difficult mathematical problems when apparently being smart means you "just get it"
>>17769977
>when apparently being smart means you "just get it"
That's exactly the opposite of what I said. You do have to work hard to solve difficult shit. You don't have to work hard to ace your exams if you're slightly above average.
>>17769988
>You don't have to work hard to ace your exams

>difficult mathematical problems
difficult mathematical "theories"
get it right you dumb fuck
the reason it's difficult is because the major problem is incomplete information
what separates a smart person from a normal one is that one can teach himeself through observation, analysis, and reflection while the normal one needs to be trained in the process that the smart ones use to actually solve the problem
It's Fluid Intelligence vs. Crystallized Intelligence

And Trump is somebody who realized all that and memed his way into the office. While it's obviously a very limited type of intelligence and he's not somebody who can use his skills in academia or art, he obviously qualifies as intelligent.

lol'd
As far as I think OP's claim is amusing, this claim is even more amusing. There are always things highly intelligent people find they need to study hard to understand. Of course school work is trivial for them so I guess that's what you meant. But the ability to ask difficult questions about simple problems have always been one indicator of high intelligence.
>>17769576
Have you considered the fact that you're not intelligent?
There is no such thing as a self described intellectual. It's an oxymoron.

>>17770144
Economics, so obviously no way near engineering or chem but got friends who major in math, mechanical engineering and medicine (and CS but it doesn't count I guess) and they have a pretty easy time, even if some of them struggled in the first two semesters a bit. None of them is "highly intelligent" either or would use it to describe themselves, although they are smarter than the average person.
The people who "study hard" usually have shit-tier learning methods and make the whole thing harder for themselves than it is.

>Have you considered the fact that you're not intelligent?
it's kinda what we've been trying to tell him
to OP it just seems to be a yes or no answer
He doesn't seem to understand the varying levels of intelligence and doesn't even put any evidence forward as to why he thinks he's "highly intelligent"
one might believe they're a genius if they only interact with retards
and I can only assume he has some reason to believe he's highly intelligent when compared to his peers
which is why its necessary for him to actually give us some metric, some reason, even anecdotal, before we can really get some perspective
but since he hasn't it reasonable to conlcude he's not as intelligent as he believes, otherwise he would have presented his "credentials" at the first question raised about his intelligence
your first step should have been to refute the assertation, not just go "nu uh, you're wrong"

dont know if this is true. i understand things really easily. I read a lot of philosphy/political theory that is considered hard to understand and i think its easy. However, im average at writing essays, and shit at tests.
>>17770286

Then you probably don't understand. You just think you do

Once your wealth reaches a certain point, you actively need to fuck up for it to shrink, and he couldn't even use somewhat clean methods to raise it. Being a good scammer with a head start just isn't a big deal.

how when professors will confirm that i understand? you do know people can be good at one thing, and shit at another. being good at academics is just knowing how to follow the criteria. i still pass the tests i do but i find them difficult, saying i am shit at them was an exaggeration.

not really, depends on the subject. in law i done well on the tests but for criminology for example i done quite bad because i didnt know what the criteria was, they never taught us. in academic texts, its predominately based on how you express your knowledge rather than your understanding.

I know the difference between solving an equation vs. understanding the science and theory behind it
which is why I tried to make it a point to call it mathematical theory, rather than a mathematical problem
>>17770332
>To a point yes but if you have a complete understanding of something, would it be really that hard to express your knowledge?
again, depends on the subject. criminology is more about taking something you have said and backing it up with a refrence/theory but i personally forget all the theorists names during the tests so i do bad. i have quite a poor memory.
>>17770334
as i have kind of said to the other guy, it depends on the subject. not all tests are graded on your understanding. what gives you qualifications to be the judge of this anyway? do you write academics?
>>17770370
>not all tests are graded on your understanding
then you're being given shitty tests
>what gives you qualifications to be the judge of this anyway?
nothing really, just stating the fact that if you believe you understand something and want someone to know it then you're going to have to prove some way or another.
>>17770394
>then you're being given shitty tests
i agree. i dislike the criteria. i hate referencing. i generally think academic writing is outdated. the skills you learn from academic writing does not help in the real world, at least in the subject i am doing.
