Do people often misunderestimate your level of intelligence?

oh crap, better tell those humanities majors to brush up on their math and physics![

I didn’t mean that most thinks that a person needs all of those to be intelligent, but all of those covers most persons views on what is needed to be intelligent.

Like person A might base his views on how well you can articulate yourself while person B might base his views on how well versed you are in the maths subject.

And you are right, haven’t you seen that this board is quite stuffed with humanities majors who thinks that they do not get the credit from others which they deserve since people think that their major is easy? You can’t change the world but you can change yourself, if they want to be perceived as smart by as many as possible they picked the wrong field.
