Please explain further. I appreciate you trying to help me but need to see where I went wrong according to you. I have explained that I don't have a lack of humility as someone having a high IQ is [b]not something to boast about as it is like looks, you are born with it. If that is all you have in life then you are a sad person. I'm irritated because peop ...[text shortened]... t have worked out that my fat brag wouldn't go down well?

When you take a test, don't always go for the 100%, introduce a few errors on purpose, I found that easier than always being right.

I disagree with this bit, if the intention is to make it easier to interact with people who are not capable of even getting close to this then surely it is better to be deceptive just in words than being deceptive in action instead (i.e. by simply saying you didn't get 100%, or playing down the grade by claiming to have burnt the midnight oils in studying for the test).
If he can get 100% in these tests, and it has not been my own contention here that he could, then he should not shy away from attaining them.

Originally posted by sonhouseYeah, because calling people "normals" isn't advertising your superiority at all. 😕
