Third year chemist, my "nice genius" got perfect scores in his physical and organic chemistry exams but still has the time to be socially well-adjusted to a scary degree (charismatic, plays sports, has had the same girlfriend since first year). I know a few autists that eat breath and shit chemistry at the cost of their social lives, but they can't even touch him in exams or tutorials. Bit sad really :^(

I want to believe this is what real high-IQ people are like, instead of the "nerdy social autist" stereotype.
I'd argue the typical /sci/ and /g/ types are just slightly above average maladapted autists who are basically compensating for their general mediocrity with heavy studying, while actually talented people are well-adjusted and competent in most aspects of life - academic, social, romantic etc.

Im pedantic in class but when I speak to people personally im very charming and helpful and always do my best to help when asked.
So people have a mixed view of me and its funny.
Also, try to learn from those who do better than you, envy is a powerful ally of failure.

Basically. The autist science or cs student is equivalent to the “chad” football player who is strong and fit but gets a D in college algebra. Both are pigeonholed into their safe little world with the blinders on. The actual top of the top, whether it’s by IQ or some other metric (if it can be measured) excel in everything they do - sports, academics, music, etc.

I'm getting a PhD at the #1 school in the world for my field, and you're pretty much on the money with the latter part of your post. Pretty much everyone in my cohort is a genuinely great and well-adjusted person, as well as obviously being very intelligent.

It would seriously surprise you (as it did me) how normal we all are.

Being nice is a liabilty tho, if you want to be part of the elite you've to be adjusted but forget about ethics completely.

Why, just because you aren't as good as someone else doesn't mean you should be a dick about it! you should want others to succeed in your field and have people like that who can help you get there. Don't be such a petty faggot, science isn't about one person being the smartest, god this board is such fucking cancer with you fucking faggots crying about classes and being "better" than other people.

Comes down to time management. I don’t watch TV and don’t spend much time here either. I’m either working out, studying/homework, partying somewhere, or sleeping. People waste half their time then act like they were never given enough. As if. The smarter you are the easier it is because your time spent on studying etc. will be significantly reduced and you’ll have better self-control (hopefully).

Gee, you're stupid. If you were a decent person and had things you wanted to do other than those in your pathetic schedule, you wouldn't have enough time to do it. Don't act like there's enough time in the day just because a worthless narcissistic sheep like you is only interested in doing things which raise your status in the eyes of other sheep.

Rather than complaining about it, get better at the subject.

There will always be people in the world who are better at something than you are, so don’t whine about it whenever you run into one of those people. Instead, work tirelessly to become one of those people. Be the person that other people aspire to be because they’re so good at something.

IQ doesn't tell you much about intelligence. At least from a research perspective

time management is important, but thats the sort of lesson you learn your freshman year of college
Research is hard. There's a lot of luck involved in terms of having natural intelligence, and avoiding rabbit holes

They way is promulgate this stereotype on TV, with Sheldon etc, is as offensive to me as I image having some other show about the black father who is a ghetto ass hood rat that sucks his teeth all day when he's not smoking crack or robbing people.

If you honestly believe this just because you’ve noticed some people are smarter than you, then you don’t even deserve to be in STEM and should drop out immediately. Then when you’re 40 years old and haven’t moved up from the same wagecuck job you’ve been working at since you left school, you can use this continue to use this lame, bullshit excuse to keep yourself from having to admit that you just were too much of a pussy to try harder and be better.

Man up you piece of shit. Stop acting like life’s bitch and start acting like life’s abusive alcoholic father.

What makes you think smart people are not well-adjusted and competent?
Part of the definition of IQ is essentially doing good, solving the problem fast and thinking clearly.

The worst is when these affable bastards use their high social intelligence realizing you're singled out and try to help you out of sympathy or something. He showers you in pity all without missing a beat.

Maybe going to uni just appeals to people who can maintain a good social life?
If I look at my class, people who get good or bad grades, all have social lives.
Uni is just majority "normies", therefore one might think being high IQ = good social skills, romantic skills etc.
