>tfw bluepilled to believe I'm not a genius

When did you realise that the haters are wrong, and you are in fact highly intelligent?

I've always known, on the basis of my wit, placement in advanced classes, and perfect test scores. If you aren't smart enough to have an accurate impression of yourself, you aren't smart at all.

This is wrong on many levels though

1) Smart people can definitely have trouble estimate their intellect (e.g. impostor syndrome) especially when they suffer of mild or severe mental problems that affect their self-esteem
2) Wit and academic success (even jointly) are not perfect predictors of smartness. You can develop wit by reading, and you can succeed academically only using a narrow subset of intelligence or working hard enough.
3) Intelligence is vague and not quantifiable, so you still need to take a leap of faith at some point when you extrapolate your qualities to the vast concept of general intelligence. You may do this early on or never

As long as you make sure you stay humble, it's ok to admit to yourself you're intelligent
