How smart were you as a teenager?

Pretty smart both in school and out.

Top of my class

I had to get all As, all the time or I'd get beaten. It was a pretty good motivator.

Pretty smart. Pretty much an outsider really. Part nerd, part slag. Loved, and still love, books music and films....but also loved sex too.

smart enough to pass the ged at 13 probably 🙂

Academically, I was very smart. I did really well in my studies and extracurricular activities. But I also had my own fantasies, I was obsessed with Disney stories, so I spent a lot of time daydreaming and imagining magical worlds.

Fairly smart when it came to nature and sports. School was easy. I didn't have a car, so I knew very little about working on cars.

I wasn't a stellar student, but I read alot.
I also had much more general knowledge than many people my age

I was too busy skipping classes and getting suspended to honestly know ...I was bad

I have never been smart never went to school much and never learned to read and write properly. But I have lots of common sense

I knew everything by the time I was 15 😌

you can be smart and still do stupid things

Book-smart, but I lagged at common sense. Still do.

That's tough to answer as I feel I have forgotten some things I learned but I definitely feel I've gained more wisdom these days and am better for this

We all have been there, at least you learned early not to keep doing the dumb things (I hope) it takes most a lifetime to learn.

Not enough to know and realize when I was not being treated right. Naivety is like a sickness at the time.
