I wouldn’t suggest telling an adcom that you’re not naturally smart. For one thing, I doubt this is the truth, as your original score on an ACT doesnt say much about your intelligence. My original SAT scores reflected badly on me, but I prefer to go by my IQ test scores to tellif im intelligent. YOure doing well in high school, which means you are intelligent enough to handle a heavy courseload (i.e. what you’ll have in college). Debasing yourself needlessly will get you nowhere, mister.
