  • Duh hello you idiot i;m smarter than you of course and i rule all games
  • no it is how you learn and you can be smarter by paying attention and studing or sign up for collage
  • there seems to be a strong correlation between the upbringing of the child to how smart they will become.
  • Hey C-man, it's called genteics. You come from a gene pool of your parent's intelligence. So, yes, your intelligence is predetermined to a point. As with all factors such as weight, genetices gives you a range that you will be in. Some people are going to be larger than others because of genetics. Some people will be smarter than other because of genetics. The problem comes in when someone has great potential and doesn't shape it and make it stronger and ends up on the low end of their range and a weaker person who works their but off and achieves at a higher level because they are at the top of their range.
  • C-man, I have to say I love your question. Some people of course are smarter in certain areas then others. Only because they study those areas they have a passion for. Where one person maybe smarter in mathematics another may excel in History. Example: I knew a man who could break down a car motor and rebuild it and make it run like new but could not spell his own first name. Was he not smart? No he was smart about rebuilding motors, not so bright when it come to reading and writing. The mind is an amazing tool in which it never stops learning as long as it is functioning. The rate of learning has a lot to do with the level of desire you have for any given subject. The more passion you have the more desire you will have to want to learn and the smarter you will become in that subject.
  • Much depends on what you mean by smart. Most people think of IQ tests, and yes, some people just aren't going to score as high on those as other people. Some people can't get as high grades in school as other people no matter how hard they try. This is to say we all have limits, partly because of genetics and partly because of the varieties of experiences we have growing up and as adults. But the lower scorers might be very strong in other ways - in creativity, for instance, or in being able to understand how a machine works. Then too, a person who excels in math might be average in ability to learn and use language/languages. Someone who can organize a system's fine details excellently might not be as good at theory and ideas as another person. Some people are slow at most things, and a few people are good at practically everything. That's unfair but true; nobody ever said life was fair.
