What about the [i]ability[/i] to retain and store knowledge? The ability to see through deception? I could go on, but I think you get the gist of it. In my own school, people voted on a person for the "smartest" student. This got me thinking, what does it really mean to be smart? I know the guy had a good GPA, but what else could be a factor in intelligence? IQ tests are used in an effort to measure someone's intelligence, and from what I know it takes into account how quickly you think as well as logic. [b]What do you think it means to be intelligent?
