How intelligent I think I am? Depends on what you mean. I know a lot about some things, but know little of electronics, programming, film and music production, the list goes on. That's the beauty of our highly specialized society. You can be good at whatever you want, but only that one thing. And you probably aren't the best at it.

I think I'm intelligent - how intelligent? I think a better follow-up question is something like, "Intelligent where?"
I'm a pretty horrible writer; my memory is seemingly sub-par; my social skills are not fantastical (yet around average) and I still get awkward at times around people I want to make an impression on. To wrap up the negatives I also have a history of horrible motivation that I'm just starting to find my way out of.
I score around 140 on IQ tests, though; and I have what I like to believe pretty deep insight in what interests me, primarily being philosophy. I'm not sure how relevant IQ really is here, but it's the only part of the OP's question I can answer.
Somewhere along the way I picked up a profound curiosity towards introspection and this is where I would bet my personal strength lies. I think I know myself really well.
A while back I started attempting to look over the ego maze and my deduction had me concluding a more or less identical answer as that one of Japanese Zen Buddhist Philosophy. I realised this in retrospect when I was reading random articles on plato.standford.edu and stumbled upon their article on Japanese Zen.

And that's honestly what any one of my teachers will tell you. That I'm smart but that I never tried or did the work. And that's true, as far as I see it. I've never struggled to understand a concept, the only thing I ever struggled with was memorization of facts if I didn't study them, as I was not blessed with a photographic memory.

I've never met anyone who can beat my scores barring someone who studied for days and retook and retook the tests.
The teachers I'm referring to are the teachers who I would talk to for hours outside of class about philosophy and whatever other subjects we happened upon. We would even joke about my lack of motivation or ambitions compared to my natural talents. And like I said before, I've never struggled with a concept. Ever. I was tutoring my peers in algebra and calculus all throughout high school. There is no objective way to measure intelligence beyond testing which is obviously flawed. All I know is that I've always tested way above average without studying hard and I've been told by peers and teachers alike that I've very intelligent, beyond the amount that my peers have, and I know that nothing has ever been intellectually challenging for me except for maybe firsthand philosophy books I've tried to read without any guidance, and even then that's mostly just obfuscation through language.

I'm not at a better school because I didn't do any homework ever which was a large part of my grade. It was a bore because they made us do it purely for the sake of doing it, whether or not you already knew the material.

A 34 on the act is better than literally anyone I have ever met except for two people who got perfect scores. 32 is extremely good on the act, 34 is amazing. You do realize its out of 36? And granted the sat is only way above average, it isn't exceptional tier, but again I literally had the flu when I took it. Iirc it was even h1n1. And like I said I've started putting in effort. Not maximal effort because this level of college doesn't require that, but effort enough that I'm doing well without having to strain. And furthermore but somewhat unrelated I think you underestimate what 70 Wpm with a broken (read: in a cast) means. That's 20 words above average with serious impairment.

I've never bothered with an iq test, mainly because I don't know where it's administered reputably. I have a feeling my score might not be as high as I think it should be. I feel pretty smart but I perform poorly on tests because of general anxiety getting amped up to performance anxiety.

I'm only smart when it comes to abstract things, and the type of physical job I have means that most people don't know I'm somewhat above average. In fact I'm pretty unassuming. I never use the big words or whatever esoterica I know I'll.

I'm an INTP like everyone else on 4chan.

The only time I took an intelligence test was 7 years back, when I was 14, and then I stopped because I decided such tests were inaccurate and likely to give myself false self-confidence.

Scored 149 on an IQ test. Dunno what percentile. INFP.

Also if you think you're intelligent, you're more likely to be less intelligent, because people who are not proficient in something tend to think they are because they've not had much exposure to people that are, whereas people who are actually proficient in something don't consider themselves anything special because it comes easily to them. Intellectual ability is no different.

Well intelligence is at least partly inherited. This means that intelligence is at least partly genetic. And I know it isn't proof, but looking at the majority of scientific discoveries in the world, I can't think of many that come from african blacks.

But that's untrue. Philosophy of religion is just as valid if not more so than science. Spaceships and technology don't exist, because the mathematics which is needed to construct them is based on axioms which cannot be proven.

But here's why religion is a more accurate interpretation of the world: religion sets the bar very low, all you need is faith; therefore it is better; science on the other hand, because we can't meet its demands, fails as an explicator of the world.

For a high IQ and logical rigor you fall short.
You don't seem to even understand basic terminologies like "axiom".

Obviously religion and science have both their models of reality.
While the model of religion is complete (based on itself), the scientific is incomplete since it is based on empiricism, which is the closest thing to reality.

By definition science is absolutely the closest thing to reality, you don't even need reasoning, since their definitions (which you also stated) explicitly describe exactly that.

But somehow you still managed to find a way to support the polar opposite.
