I cringed when I read you saying 'am pretty intelligent these days'
Einstein, Euler, Reimann realized that the subjects and challenges were truly important, not their intelligence. Solve life, don't inflate self.
And I actually mean that. Not yet. Soon, perhaps, but not now. And I said "pretty intelligent", not that I was up there with the greats. I find it interesting you took that from my post!
Saying that you are intelligent is just so cringe-worthy. If you want to make a point about yourself give two small examples of what you've achieved and let the reader form an opinion.
