    Being smart is largely about being able to process information, not retain it. Retaining it is being educated.

      Also a bit of knowing about a lot of topics but not well enough to explain any of them

      Not entirely. In case of ADHD, the memory is highly choosy in what to retain. Which has genetical causes.

        Right. My husband is intelligent, able to process information well. However, he also has ADHD and can’t remember things for shit. He’s also not highly educated, though, so not the best example. Still, you can be intelligent without being able to retain information is the overall point.

        And thus, those with ADHD are uneducated. Next!
