Personally, I don’t think smart has anything to do with education. educatin often makes people less intelligent than they’d be without it.
IQ Tests help.
But someone who can achieve the maximum doing the minimum, aka natural intelligence.
Combining good memory, IQ and course rigor/activities is what I consider “smart”. It all depends on the person who thinks this- Its pretty subjective. @stef1a breaks it down perfectly.
