"Book Smart" or "Street Smart"?
Would you consider yourself more "Book Smart" or more "Street Smart"
This is obviously just your own personal opinion of what you consider each term to mean, and how you think you fall on that spectrum.
I think I fall more on the street smart end of the range. I have a BS, so I'm apparently "book smart" to a certain degree, but I feel like I have to work hard to study, pass tests, etc. I'm much more comfortable dealing with situations that are thrown at me, dealing with people, fixing weird problems (mechanical, technical, etc), and knowing "common sense" types of things.
My brother is tremendously more book smart than me, but no where near as street smart as I am.

I'm more book smart, however the older I get, the more I realize that street smarts actually get you farther in life (IMO).
