University Educated or plain common sense!

I ain't been measured on the IQ scale,nor am I overly interested in what checks in boxes might convey about my perceived level of intelligence.Fireman Mike said once that I was 'smarter than the average bear' and that guy is a hero to many and teller of truths,so therefore I'm not one to doubt his wisdom.
My years at an exclusive experimental college led to the realization that I could save my parents a bundle of money and still pursue my interests in higher education by dropping out and being a pretend student,with the extra bonus of a master key that Natty Nat gave me which permitted all hours access to the library,radio station and design center. I was to further my research at several other university campuses as a prospective student,occasional volunteer,class auditor,and bullshit artiste on the art opening wine and cheese circuit- just without keys to the joint.
I am curious about common sense.I can build you a house from the ground up,make an excellent meal,discuss the minutiae of any period of Jamaican music at great length,design the sound for your next theatrical production- yet still struggle with basic math and many of the givens of what constitutes being a successful or productive member of society.Akin to a 'caveman in a rocketship' to quote one noted and misunderstood 20th century visionary.
Intelligence is variable and subjective.Experience and humility are greater teachers than any book,guru or established institution in my opinion.

~thanks for asking

IQ tests are, for the most part, meaningless because the questions depend on a shared culture between the question-setter and the question-answerer. When I was doing my degree (Sociology. But did I go to University? It is now but it wasn't in my time) I recall case involving a child brought up in the country and his answers to a question about different forms of transport. I don't remember the exact details but I know he'd never seen a tube train but he had seen a tractor. A city person is familiar with different forms of public transport, a country person with different forms of motorised vehicles. Was the rural child less intelligent?

It's 118 in 2001, 89 in 2004 and 128 in 2010. Then I stopped measuring it.[sep]Sensible? Not very much[sep]Sensitive? To the core.[sep]Unfortunately, I did go to university.[sep]I think I'm full of senses like common, uncommon, sense of humour and nonsense.
Your turn.

i finished the fine arts academy, where they teach you to be senseless, surreal, avoid common sense and solve things in creative manners. Or, why solve them, when you can always paint on top of them.

Every intelligent person follows some kind of 'mob' which represents a theory or ideology. One doesn't learn unless he/she follows a certain path. Invention is just a byproduct.

Not sure what you're talking about. Whether a neurosurgeon or a Major General, both are intelligent and follow others. Yet with various academic background or path.

I agree with you!👍
University makes dull. Intelligence makes fresh!

always plain Common Sense

My IQ was apparently 129 when I was tested at 16. It hasn't done me much good anyhow. I had a tendency to make really stupid decisions when I was younger. I suppose there's a huge difference between intelligence that is measured by tests and wisdom.
