The Definition of Genius
I once read on the back of a Mensa workbook (Should You Be In Mensa?) the definition of genius: The confidence in knowing you are right, that your answer is correct.
Meanwhile, according to the American Mensa Society, there is no definition of genius:
I dunno. I just can't tell from the text if the AMS is saying that with the confidence of knowing it's right or not. But that's exactly how I ended up almost second guessing myself into special ed in grade school, too - reading between the lines, seeing what isn't there - or worse, NOT seeing what isn't there.
