I'm still here.

Kidding! How do you determine who the smartest kid was?

[โ€“] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Valedictorian is a way, but plenty of valedictorians aren't the smartest kid, just the smart one who had the motivation to become one.

Can't even use SAT or ACT score to pick, because the smartest kid may not have cared enough to bother or try to do as well as they could.

Plus, there are so many different types of smart; test taking is far from the only one.
