Random Reflections on Being ‘Smart’
About a year ago, someone at Quora.com directed this question to me: “What are the advantages of not letting people know you have a high IQ?” Maybe that person assumed I fell into that category of “high IQ” because of the credential that follows my surname, i.e., PhD.
