Academic performance is the only true measure of a person’s intelligence.
It is indisputable that possessing a degree from such prestigious universities would very likely guarantee a person’s academic success and intelligence. However, I would argue that educational result should not be considered as the sole means of measure for a human for the following reasons.
To begin with, throughout the history, it has been proven by various examples that not having a university degree does not affect people’s chance of success. In fact, many genius renowned figures who dropped out of college have become extremely successful in their careers. Mark Zukerberg, the founder of facebook, for example, who left Havard to invest in the site that has attracted billions of people worldwide ; eventually, he has become one of the most wealthy and affluent person on the planet.
Further, it is commonly perceived by scientists that intelligence could exist in various forms that should receive equally appreciation, and accomplishment in the academic world may be simply one of them. For instance, in attempt to achieve high result, a person should make good use of their fluid intelligence (the ability to analyze) and crystalized intelligence (the ability to fetch what you have learnt). On the other hand, according to an American psychologist, we should not ignore other aspects of our brains such as linguistic, spatial, musical, kinesthetic, etc.
In conclusion, for the reasons above, I reaffirm my position that academic achievement should be considered as one of numerous means of measure for human’s intelligence. It is therefore highly recommended for the government and educational institution to implement a more comprehensive system to encourage students to pursue and accomplish whichever types of success they wish for.
