I'm pretty good at a lot of things but I'm definitely not an expert at anything though I wish could become an expert at things. Is it posible to truly become a real expert at somthing (Noun) Expert a person with high degree of skill in or knowledge of certain subject, having the highest grade that can be achieved in membership. I know some of the obvious ways to become an expert but is there other ways that one can become an expert at somthing? and how about any of you are you a expert at anything? please share.

I'm pretty crafty if making a dinosaur skeletons out of bread ties and knitting with only finger tips, drawing from my imagination qualifies as crafty but I'm still not an expert either, because there's always more to learn when it comes to most things even creativity.

Hi ya apples I don't think I am an expert at anything but maybe I am good at a lot of things and really rubbish at others haha. I have experience in a lot of things too but that still doesn't make me an expert haha

Hiya apples, I am not an expert in anything much but I am a bit at making People laugh for a while and keeping up conversations does that count.? You made me laugh the other week with your Star Log Captain I donĀ“t what. Can imitate a few People English or Spanish but that does not count for much not enough to make me famous eh?

I'm not an expert on anything...I think it's good to know a little of everything sometimes. lol But the way most people become experts is by going to college and getting a masters degree or PhD in something. Or you can just spend years of your life studying whatever you want to be an expert on and become an expert that way. Either way, it will take some time.

Yeah going to collage is one ways to get a degree and learn a craft but dose having degree truly make one a expert at whatever field there studying? I know the value of having a degree or PhD in today's society, but there are meny people in the world with PhD that are not the experts they claim to be I've scene meny Television news programs that speak of male practice and other things that we would think a person with a degree or PhD would not experience and these kinds of situations make me wounder if a few classes and a pace of paper really makes someone an expert.
