HIGHLY subjective. Any tests we have to gague intelligence is inherently biased and all intelligence falls on a bell curve of normality.

Answer 5

Answer 6

every thing is subjective.And "every reality is an opinion"

Answer 7

Subjective. A CPA or Physicist will be of little or no use in a hunter-gatherer society.

Answer 8

Self esteem is subjective, based on an opinion of your intelligence!

The true criteria of your intelligence are most accurately assessed by others............ and may not aid your self esteem!

So true intelligence has to be objective.

Answer 9

It's all subjective. I have a friend who knows a lot about music and music history, which I think is all trivial and I have a friend who knows a lot about computers and video games and it's impressive when he can tell you the composer to a certain video game, but again it's all trivial to me.

Answer 10

I definitely think it's subjective.

Answer 11

i would hate to comment in ignorance,but; isnt knowledge only one part of intelligence? for example, Arundhati Bakshi suggested that a physicist or CPA would not be of any use for our intended wild purpose. but i disagree. it depends. if that person is intelligent he has a good ability to learn and cope with surroundings so he would be usefull. however, if its just a skill or his, then its pointless infering he is intelligent because of his status, and a pointless example. usually someone who has high status like that has alot of intelligance, which is a great attituse to survive in a hunting/gathering situation. we learn some techniques, but those techniques would at some point been made up which suggests intelligence is objective, doesn't it?

If intelligence is subjective wouldnt that suggest intelligece being evolved is completely pointless! because how could it be learnt it no one could invent it and intelligence would not progress and  we would not be able to make capable decisions and improvise which is essentially the purpose of being conscious  and intelligent beings.

Ps. your English is very good considering.
