While that is admirable, that doesn't necessarily equate to intelligence. I have friends I used to go to school with who got straight A's but could only answer problems that were outlined in their books because they merely memorized things (including math). Whereas I now work in a group of people, several of which are High School drop-outs and can solve real-world problems in minutes given a detailed look at the problem and what they have to solve it with.
