There are two originations of the modern day genius ◦Originating from birth ◦Achieving through hard work  “While genius levels of IQ are decided by Nature and birth, there are performance levels of genius resulting from hard work and social development”(Miller). Miller believes than in order to be successful, as a genius one must be social with others in the same field in order to prosper.

It is false that one can be born “Genius” The author, Tom, start off this piece describing how it is “insulting to [him] to say that [geniuses] were just born smart and it fell into their lap”(Tom). He believes that to achieve the stature of “Genius” without putting for a substantial amount of effort. He believes Geniuses spent a large amount of time perfecting their skills as appose to having the skills magically come to them. Quote: “Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” —Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Genius: ◦“natural ability or capacity; strong inclination: a special genius for leadership”(Dictionary.com). The definition implies one is born with the capability of learning material with greater ease.

Albert Einstein Reason for Classification Much larger corpus callosum then the average man. Received Nobel prize through physics and was named “Person of the Century”(Drew).

Leonardo Da Vinci Reason for Classification Da Vinci was ahead of his times, late 1400s. He drew up models of the modern day planes, automobiles, and Tanks.

Defined: A person who is able to excel strongly in one field; however, in other fields they strongly lack. (

-Famous Savant- Kim Peek: Was quoted as the “Real Life Rain Man”(Stephen). Mr. Peeks has an amazing memory, but he was named mentally disabled at birth. Mr. Peeks is able to memorize a page, that a human being would spend three minutes on, in 10 seconds.
