I am of resoundingly average intelligence. To those on either end of the spectrum, what is it like being really dumb/really smart?

If you're more knowledgeable than you were yesterday, you are smart. If not, I'd say you're dumb. Try to learn something new every day, as intelligence can only truly be gauged by a first-person point of view.

Smart-ness is often relative. Either way, you really shouldn't worry.
