<p>If you didn't want anyone to catch your spelling mistake, in your reason for editing you should have spelt 'spelling' correctly... :)</p>
<p>i have strong points in the sciences and logical reasoning. I am sort of dumb in English. i think half of it is actually liking it to do well which i certainly do not.</p>

Yep [sic] I'll be the first one to say it [sic] I'm smarter then [sic] everyone on CC [sic] and if anyone one wants to prove me wrong then I'd like to see you try. I promise not to use google.

Need I say more? </p>
<p>Define: oxyphenbutazone, milieu, fete galanate, xylyl, cwm, and aalii. </p>
<p>To prove that one is smarter than everyone else, one must find a scientifically valid testing method. Then one must procure a score higher than everyone else on "CC." To be valid, everyone on CC must take such test. Most likely, no one knows the identity of everyone on CC. Therefore, your conjecture is unscientific. </p>
<p>Post Scriptum: I know you are not serious. Also, in my very small school, I am almost certain that I am the most intelligent.</p>
<p>I think I'm pretty smart. Not like a genius, and not way smarter then every one else, because I know that's not true. I have a good memory for random facts, though. And unlike some of my friends I also have street smarts.</p>
<p>I'm smart, but I am DEFINITELY not the most intelligent person on Earth/my school. At my school, I'm one of the smartest... maybe the most in certain subjects, but we all have our strengths and weaknesses. </p>
<p>And Socrates (technically Plato wrote it) said that being wise is knowing that you don't know everything.</p>
<p>Summary: HECK NO.</p>
<p>I don't think I'm smart; others just tell me I am.</p>
<p>I believe I am intelligent and hard working. I believe I am smarter than most people I know in real life, but as others have pointed out before I'm not much different from many CCers.</p>
<p>I was hoping someone would get all serious and challenge me to something.</p>
<p>Smart is relative. For example, I may be a better writer than my friend and I spend a lot of time writing, but he does better in English than I do. Does this mean he's smarter than me? No, it just means he's good at following a rubric.</p>
<p>School grades and SAT scores are a horrible measure of someone's intelligence. School squanders creativity and those who "follow the rules" end up doing better than the rest. It's so strange how little being smart has to do with doing well in school.</p>
<p>To answer the OP's question:</p>
<p>Hell no.</p>

I did. What are you going to do about it? ;)</p>
<p>I consider myself smarter than just about everybody that I know. but then again, there are a lot of people I don't know. I base this off of my natural ability, not how hard i work. Things just come extremely easy to me and i barely have to try at all to succeed.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'd go right ahead and say I'm smarter than most people. It's really easy for me to look down on people that don't appear as intelligent.</p>
<p>I try to not look at how well other people do around me (which is freakin' hard. especially on CC) because I know soemone's bound to do better. I just try to work myself as hard as I can. It hurts sometimes, trying your best and not getting the results you wanted, but i still work myself anyways, haha.</p>
<p>It paid off for me in the end, college-wise, so it's okay!</p>
<p>at my school i'm pretty smart, but not the smartest. theres a few kids at my school who are just innate geniuses. kids usually see me as "that kid who knows the answer to everything", and i kind of hate that. no one else is really that smart at my school, so i'm seen as kind of a pompous a$$, which i'm trying to change. </p>
<p>i'm certainly not ranked the highest, damn you algebra II (i got a c in it last year :|)</p>
<p>^ I feel your pain. I got a C (my first) first semester in Algebra II last year and wanted to cry. I thought my report card was ruined forever. I worked extra hard and pulled it up to a B (MINUS!) second semester so I was proud of myself for that but...Oh how I hate math.</p>
<p>Yah, I feel like my reputation is way overinflated. I don't really know why my classmates consider me so much smarter than I actually am. I guess it's because I read widely and am actually interested in things that aren't broadcast on MTV. And the class rank thing. But I can kiss my rank goodbye this semester. Freaking calculus.</p>
<p>Haha, I love how we all get beasted by our math classes.</p>
<p>I like to think of myself as a harder worker than genuinely, naturally more intelligent than others.</p>
<p>i know right? math really depends on the teacher though, if the teachers good, it can make all the difference between an A and a......C.</p>
<p>but yeah, what is up with teenager's obsession with MTV. i cant stand all of the commercials for cell phone games and all the other bs. and those dating reality shows.....OMG. the most tv i watch regularly is discovery or stand up on comedy central. i used to be a cable news junkie, but the election coverage has gotten so monotonous.</p>
<p>I'd say I am in some areas. "Smart" is kind of a vague term.</p>
