Albert Einstein said: We are all intelligent, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its entire life believing it is stupid We cannot all be gifted in one area, some people are academically gifted, some are physically gifted, some people are even intelligent when it comes to breaking the law, some are brilliant in art. Then why does society judge every child using school marks? Is academic intelligence the only important intelligence? Why cant there be a series of tests and then take an average of all? My friend can solve for X better than anyone I know, I cant solve for X but I can build a toaster from waste materials and make it work perfectly, who is intelligent between us? WE BOTH ARE!!! But society will make me feel bad, say I have a useless talent, just because my intelligence is outside the classroom and cannot be written on paper. We are our worst enemy! #iVyLeague #ACloserLookAtSociety
