Topic: Academic achievements at school or university is the only true measure of a person’s intelligence. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is true that people achieve academic qualifications that make them get a good position in the standard evaluation of society.

However

, I totally disagree with the statement that their brilliance should be solely assessed by their success at school.

Firstly

, attainments in school or college do not always reflect real educational

Intelligence

since test results are influenced by not only the

intelligence

of testers but

also

other factors, both physically and mentally.

For example

, a brilliant student may happen to fall an ordinary exam if he is prone to an unexpected severe headache or an upcoming stressful event. These problems prevent his brain from working properly and

thus

leads to poor results.

Moreover

, it is a fact that a great deal of people in the world is still successful without joining any universities. Those who still receive human respect by making crucial contributions to human civilization. But not really depended on schools

such

as Bill Gates, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, etc.

Secondly

, academic

intelligence

cannot exclusively determine the term ”

intelligence

” in general.

This

is because impressive academic accomplishments play a part in nine types of

intelligence

Accept comma addition

intelligence, such

such

as Linguistic

Intelligence

, Logic

Intelligence

, Musical

Intelligence

, etc.

For instance

, those with musical

intelligence

based on their strength can easily create or catch a melody and a song or perform a complex piece of music.

Such

skills cannot be essentially learned on a course of from a book,

therefore

, they may be talented singers or musicians, but do not need to be good students at school. In conclusion, I do believe that people cannot be judged to be smart based on their academic backgrounds alone. People who can explore their abilities and take advantage of their

intelligence

are more likely to gain success in their life.
