When kids do linear algebra or they rise to the level of GM in chess within the first two decades of their lives, such people are obviously geniuses. Their intelligence is undeniable.

    Being able to operate at expert level in one area of endeavor doesn’t guarantee that you will be at that same level in all things you do.
