Does an exam determine if you are intelliget or not??

A single exam in a particular subject does it determine the fate of your Grey cells?? Sometimes the most intelligent of students do not perform well in an exam and at times end up feeling depressed. Does an exam really determine if you are intelligent or not???

an exam alone cannot determine that. like you said, some people freeze up on tests, even if they are considered smart. intelligence should be figured out by many things, not just one.

Ordinary exams tells how good your memorizing power is. But exams like cat require you to be intelligent and also needs u to have a brain like sponge.But all those exams u have in schools colleges are utter waste.They dontsay how intelligent u r.They just tells who has the best memorizing power

No, it does not determine if you are smart or not. There are a lot of variables that could make the test go wrong.

Like to old saying goes, some people are book smart and some are street smart, I certainly dont think one test can determine the intellect of a total person concept

no. that is not true. exam only can determine our memory power.
