I hope this helps. I went from a B student to an A student when I figured out the following:Figure out what the teacher truly wants you to do and then provide that exactly on a silver platter. That is the absolute easiest way to improve a grade (level). It’s surprisingly very formulated to get a high grade so target your essays to their exact tastes and preferences. How can you tell what they want—Read and reread the teacher’s essay comments and corrections. And uncover more insights by directly talking to them about what they expect and how you can improve during office hours. Teachers love helping those who help themselves but in English it’s very easy to find there trigger points and your just the person to do that right. Viola, a pattern emerges whereby you can target your essay to pin the dart at the bulls eye. It’s easy if you really understand their grading style and approach. Btw this technique only works magic in English (but use some subtly on any essay in a non science essay to increase how the reader views your content.Speaking of patterns, study each returned error and be careful to never ever ever (like that song we all used to love) make that exact type of mistake again- if she circled apostrophes, then make sure you are very cautious when using one or dont (oops I caught it so don’t misspell words). Use the dictionary regularly for at home assignments and a spellcheck or two and he sure to have succinct word choices to improve your performance dramatically. I’ll use, for key documents, two spell checkers like Office and Google docs (yep it’s a doctor all right so get an Rx for sure. English teachers deep down want perfection so be perfect and unique. No one else in your class is. Your on your waySpeak in a very “active” language or voice that steals ones senses (or attention): “I am going to the market” works less than, “I hurried to the market.” “I went to play ball” is weaker or instead state, “I attacked the basket at lunch with a mesmerizing dunk.” Thrill her with your words and create a carefully crafted essay that she can taste, see and feel so make it real. Deal? (Have fun too btw and take chances). As Simon says (pretty punny right) on American Idol or is it the Voice which would be more appropro, “make it your own” but of course cleverly tailored to gain the exact likes and desires of a Simon (or your English teacher). Don’t bore or snore them-enrich embellish and enlighten them.Target the teacher like you would Simon while making your essay unique and satisfying (think the Lion King). One of my favorite lines. It just hits the spot in some odd, fascinating way. Creative yet crazy. You want to do that with you essays too. If you master some or all these techniques, your essays will explode and it’s then grad school here you come or you’ll be loving essays anyways. In this case it’s for better not worse (be creative and it’s pay off unless your English teacher is a stiff and I find they are creative too.Like above, be descriptive and visual and use wonderfully flagrant and delicious adjectives and adverbs (and in every sentence). The minute I did this my cummulative gpa elevated. It’s a secret that will take you the Promised Land. Speaking of witch (be careful brett-it’s “which”) but Bruce Springsteen made his money and mark captivating his audience and with lyrical and descriptive plays about themes like darkness, joblessness and Being Born to Run. I would even argue that the Smashing Pumpkins succeeded not only because of a seed of imagination but because of their creative title which is essay 101 as well.Every word used in an important essay should be “scripted” meaning choose the best word for every choice and think to yourself the following—can I pick (or choose or insert or include or add or list or publicize) a word choice that improved on what you have. Which word is the best for every choice as listed above. Identify all possibilities and go with the strongest one and in your voice (sharpest didn't work here so I handpicked strongest-that took a split second decision). It’s like playing a musical instrument by ear. Inprovise, harmonize and Revolutionize- never compromise.Every noun needs a deceptive word in front of it to entice the reader and to enlist engage and enthrall him or her. Notice here I used the letter “e” three times to Encourage the reader to pay attention to my style (now four times-it’s elegant isn’t it). Ok I’m exaggerating a bit but trying to make an emphatic point. These add grading and style points to your essay (I love “e” as in easy. Ok we take a break from this essay to give you what you want-sorry for the digression or regression (ok another way to captivate the reader) by using words together with the same ending (ion or ing or ed as in enchanted). Strong word choices will improve you grades tooIt’s time to rhyme, mime and Pantomime-isn’t that devine. Rhyming works wonders ( “w” and “w” are purposely and cleverly used again. It’s make reading light and airy almost a bit breezy if you get my drift and work flowUse analogies and similes and metaphors so your not a bore and you can score more. I hope my short story is like a Picasso masterpiece (I wish)One of the best ways is to cite (notice i didn’t say ”list” but selected “cite” because it’s a succinct word choice meant to inspire a tad more… is to incorporate several succinct and fascinating fact (“f” an “f” chosen on purpose showing sophistication and command of language) into your essay. Be authoritative. This essay, one of my best and most creative on Quora will get several hundred likes if the readers like these really creative tips-no not triangle tip. For example (this scores points btw) use intelligent and thought provoking facts- “Two thirds of students with perfect SAT scores get rejected from Harvard along with those who have perfect gpa.” Then add a comment about it that shows your mastery if the quote. I would finish it by stating Great is not good enough. Great is not good enough is such a twisted and clever comment showing your English teacher that you command English are clever and extremely creative. I wish I could do this all of the time but in time-get the point? (notice a thought provoking play on words).You’re probably not from gang so don’t be caught dude using slang. Make sense homey (don’t use dude honey or got got it? I’m being dramatic here just to show you a sample or example.And my all time favorite idea in college is this trick— I would always remember 5 wonderfully short and insightful quotes and then insert them into my class essay or final (sound brilliant-I wish) and sure enough you are doing a double take with As and A pluses. For example (and those two words always work grade improvements because your using all of the English teachers favorite tools in her shed and showing English level mastery.. . Here is a sample: Noted philosopher Thomas Hobbs once told us that “Life is hard brutal and extremely short.” Probably just kind this essay that i could have easily butchered as I am writing it to be helpful and insightful not delightful.if you use these techniques and master them (unlike me) and become an English writer Houdini giving a little big of a show and some insightful analysis, watch your English grades soar and you won’t be sore getting a poor grade anymore (soar and sore are a playful use of word)I loved the question and it inspired me to try to help someone who really wants to improve. I hope it helped and these ideas took years of hard work to hone it in class (h is the key here!).So use facts, quotes, analogies, great word choices, adjective and pay careful attention to anything marked off or discussed in class. English teachers are perfectionist and give them what they love— adjectives and brilliantly decriptive language. Lots of continued success.

As generally written? As smart as a loaf of bread.His intellectual capacity varies widely depending on who's writing him.But that's not his fault. He's afflicted with Plot Induced Stupidity at least once an issue. When you've got a guy who can bounce bullets off his chest, lift an ocean liner, out-calculate a computer, and be faster than a beam of light on a good day, he has to mess up before you can start your story.Genetically speaking? He's descended from the genetically-enhanced genome of a super-intelligent species and whose parents were at the top of the food chain among them. He should be one of the smartest beings on the planet, Lex Luthor, Ray Palmer and Batman included.Given Superman's/Kal-El's parents being considered as 8th level intellects (we'll get back to that in a moment) Superman must at least possess the POTENTIAL to be an 8th level intellect and even untrained would still likely possess the intellectual capacity to be one of the most intelligent beings living on the DCU Earth.Given some of his intellectual feats he should be able to claim a seat at any table at Mensa right alongside Lex Luthor and Bruce Wayne. We'll get to some of those later.This page clipped from Action Comics #3, page 4 is shown quoting Jor-El's considerable intellectual capacity.DC has defined Jor-El and Lara being lead scientists on the planetary Science Council.Defining Intellect in the DC UniverseThe DC Universe has never really known how to address their descriptions of intellectual capacity in an objective level. The DCU is littered with a variety of geniuses at varying levels of intellectual capacity and development. I think they should just use the I.Q. scale like everyone else but I suspect comic book genius renders the normal IQ scale less than ideal.Some are creative geniuses, capable of creating and envisioning new sciences often without equals: Metron, Lex Luthor, John Henry Irons, Mr. Terrific, Ray Palmer, Gorilla Grodd.Others possess mechanical or engineering geniuses capable of creating new, often unique machines or artificial intelligences: Professor Ivo, Will Magnus, T.O Morrow, Hiro Okamura, Victor Stone and the Brain.A number possess situational, physical, or other intellectual talents due to their longevity, physical training or other intellectual enhancement: Darkseid, Superman, Adam Blake (Captain Comet), Joker, Vandal Savage, Bruce Wayne, Terry Sloane, Doc Savage, Lady Shiva, Bronze Tiger, and Richard Dragon.Lady Shiva, in some iterations of the DC Universe, she was THE hand to hand combatant to beat. She defeated Batman in almost every conflict they ever had. She was basically undefeated and the most terrifying martial artist in the DC Universe. Yes, I call that a form of genius.A holdover from the previous DC UniverseOne such measuring tool was the use of the "genius levels of intellect" scale rated from one to twelve, with twelve being the maximum. Yes, there are rumors of a 16th level intellect but canon writings only take the scale to 12. Given the difficulties in determining how such intellects are rated:There is no objective scale that has been clearly determinedThe five known measures are still highly subjectiveThe five markers set down by DC in the previous continuities of the DC Universe were:Highest level of genius intellect currently defined is a 12th level intellect.this has been displayed as the ability to consciously have 12 simultaneous thought processes at a genius level of intellect being performed concurrently.Intellectual capacity at that level is capable of developing sciences and concepts beyond the comprehensions of even other known geniuses and associated with the potential to master an unlimited number of disciplines.Such intellects are capable of memorizing entire libraries of information, multitasking and building entire mental simulations with the speed and accuracy of supercomputers. It has been hinted, however, that intellects at a level greater than ten are inherently unstable and prone to erratic behavior.Brainiac 5 of the Legion of Superheroes, and the original planetary computing machine Brainiac are considered to be at this level. Silver Age Brainiac (depicted below) and his more machine-like aspect in the late Post-Crisis and in the New 52 Universe are also considered to be one of the most intelligent beings in the Universe. However, things outside our Universe could, conceivably be more intelligent. (See: Metron.)Caption: Brainiac is from the planet Colu. His "Twelfth-Level intelligence" makes him the smartest being in the entire Universe. He is also the coldest. From shrinking cities to annihilating entire alien races, Brainiac views the Universe as his own personal lab and will commit any act in the name of science. He is also especially fascinated with Superman and his wealth of Kryptonian Knowledge.*This version of Brainiac was obsessed with all things Kryptonian and the Silver Age Superman was significantly more scientifically adept than any version of the character since the Crisis on Infinite Earths. Superman has been shown far less intellectually capable since the Man of Steel series in 1986.The entire 31st century Earth's population is considered to be at a 9th level of intellect. Future Earth, super-smart general level of intelligence for Humanity on Earth. But this was the collective intellect of the species. Which probably means individuals were only at 6th or 7th level with the outliers pushing the numbers collectively higher. But this implies any citizen of the 31st century was smarter than ANY average citizen of the 20th century by a wide margin.The scientist Jor-El of Krypton was individually considered at the 8th level of intellect.The average citizen of Colu is individually considered to be at the 8th level of intellect.The entire 21st century Earth's population is considered to be at a 6th level of intellect.One last marker: Lex Luthor has been estimated of being a 7-9th level intellect and arguably one of the smartest humans on the DC Earth.Given these ratings and the recent reveal that Jor-El is at least an 8th level intellect and considered by "The Collector" to be Krypton's leading scientific mind, and Lara was also considered a first rate scientist on Krypton, this means Kal-El has the genetic potential to be considered a genius of that order.Assuredly with his mind's enhancement under a yellow sun, he is certain capable of being one of the most intelligent beings on the DC Earth. His greatest weakness is likely a lack of significant exposure to information and education to challenge his intellect to achieve its greatest state.In the modern DC Universe, Superman has been shown to use his natural aptitutes for skill acquisition and super computation in addition to a genius-level aptitude with using his powers and abilities.Is Superman's thinking affected by his powers?In the canon DC Universes, Superman's raw intelligence is considerable but rarely challenged. Kal-El is the son of two of Krypton's top scientists but his time on Earth, in most continuities, he is not challenged to utilize his super-intellect to its greatest capacity.One of the greatest standard display of his super-intellect is his Fortress of Solitude. Pre-Crisis, Silver-Age Superman, particularly in the 1960s and early 1970s was the most scientifically inquisitive and skilled version of the character.He built his Fortress of Solitude by himself, no Kryptonian super-crystals as seen in the Donner Superman movies.He created a shrink-ray so that he could visit the Bottle City of Kandor, shrunken by the evil Brainiac. He would also create a technology for the Kandorians to be free of their bottle prison.He tended a zoo of alien animals he saved from extinction within the Fortress. No idea how he made food for them, but they always looked healthy and exotic...He created his Superman robots to help tend the Fortress, stand in for him when he needed to protect his secret-identity and to assist him when he needed to assist in more than one place at one time.While the robots lacked all of his abilities, they were quite capable of standing in for him for most issues. They did possess a degree of superhuman strength, flight and heat vision. He also programmed their artificial intelligence.He maintained a laboratory where he conducted experiments (of an unknown nature), he maintained an armory of super-weapons from all over the known galaxy, and occasionally built devices (the Supermobile and other exotic equipment).He also maintained a communication array that he used to talk with aliens all over the galaxy.Post-Crisis SupermanSuperman, as he has been written from the Post Crisis Era to the last iteration of the DC Universe, was not considered to have as great a superhuman intellect. The early Post-Crisis version of the character by John Byrne was meant to emphasis the MAN, not the SUPER, so his life as Clark Kent was the focus of these early stories.However, he would rediscover technologies from Krypton, utilize them as he needed and archive them within the Fortress of Solitude. He would rebuild his Fortress a number of times to improve security.He would also use hybridized Kryptonian and human technology created by John Henry Irons (aka Steel) and would also utilize alien technologies over time (Thanagarian).Whether this will remain true in the latest DCnU remains to be seen. Lacking a super-human intellect did not mean he was not intelligent, after all he was the son of the greatest scientists of Krypton, Jor-El and Lara-El. But he did not get the grounding in science he would have needed to equal his parents capabilities.His current Fortress is still an impregnable stronghold filled with technology from all over the galaxy. While he may not be considered a super-genius, his ability must be significant enough he is able to rebuild and maintain his Kryptonian stronghold on Earth.That said, it is obvious that his natural abilities far exceed a Human's for a variety of reasons he displays every time he uses his powers.He does possess a photographic memory.He is able to remember everything he has read and can draw upon it at will.He has taught himself surgery, at superspeed no less. It is theorized, if he made the effort he could learn and retain any particular skill he had an interest in applying himself to.It is unclear if this is a byproduct of his powers or a natural Kryptonian ability. He is also able to speak every language he has encountered or bothered to learn.His brain must process its activity and neural connectivity at a rate far greater than ours.This can be surmised by the fact that he is able to utilize super-speed with both precision and accuracy and has done so pretty much from the beginning of his media career.Once he adapted to Flash's movement, he was able to turn the tide and predict his movement, much to Flash's chagrin.This was displayed most often during his Pre-Crisis era when he would have a yearly race with the Flash around the world.Their challenge was to keep the race sub-sonic because Superman would case catastrophic damage as he pass areas creating sonic booms. (The Flash does not have this problem, because of his speed aura. He only creates sonic booms if he wants to.)Superior Proprioception:Since Superman can control his bodily movement and proprioception (his awareness of where his body is in space) with pinpoint accuracy, it stands to reason his brain's processing speed and neural activity are both faster, more precise, better networked, and able to be controlled at a level far better than a Human brain.Since it is unlikely, but not necessarily impossible, for his brain to speed up the flow of electrical activity past what the normal brain can, it is more probable he has a greater neural density, allowing more neural pathways for the signals to pass through.More neural connections, more conceivable brainpowerHaving a greater network density could conceivably give Superman the potential for improved cognitive ability, especially if both sides of his brain are connected by a thick bundle of neural materials (in Human's this is the corpus callosum) which coordinates activity between the left and right sides of the human brain.Since we have never been given access to the Kryptonian brain, we make assumptions it is much like the Human brain. But even subtle differences could give Superman far greater abilities.Modifying the density of the barriers between the halves of the human brain would allow a human increased language capabilities, ambidexterity, incredible artistic and musical capabilities. If the Kryptonian brain were similar he would also have such increased abilities. Pre-Crisis Superman had all of these powers and more.Instinctive, intuitive use of superhuman abilitiesThe most likely reason we would assume Superman (and by proxy all Kryptonians) have greater intellectual capacity is that their brains allow them to control their superhuman abilities at an intuitive level with only a few days of training.In the cases of physical fit, or well trained individuals, they are able to control their powers in hours. Precise control takes far longer, but for the ability to utilize their superhuman potential in a matter of days, implies their brains are far more sophisticated, capable of incredible feedback mechanisms and shows the Kryptonian brain to be a finely tuned organ.In SummaryIf anything can be determined by this essay, the best thing we can determine is that Superman, the character, is rarely shown using all of his mental capacity as can be inferred by these ideas.Likely because, if he were written using his abilities to their fullest potential he would be even more difficult to write because it would remove him from his relationship to normal humans.Superman could be as smart or smarter than Batman if he applied himself the same say Bruce Wayne has. Theoretically if he had teachers on the caliber of the Kryptonians, he should be able to learn as much as his parents did or even more since he has exposure to technologies that he did not invent.The safest way to explain it is, since he aspires to be human, and possesses incredible natural talent, he has never tried to apply himself to see what ELSE he could do if he tried. Superman is a jock and writers are thankful for that.Apocrypha: All-Star SupermanPeople often look at the graphic novel/movie version of "All-Star Superman" as a sample of Superman utilizing his superhuman intellect. While he does use his abilities to their fullest there, this particular Superman is an Elseworlds version of the character, not a mainstream continuity version. The DC Animated feature film All-Star Superman was based on the comic book series All-Star Superman.As noted in Wikipedia:All-Star Superman is a twelve-issue comic book series featuring Superman that ran from November 2005 to October 2008. The series was written by Grant Morrison, drawn by Frank Quitely, digitally inked by Jamie Grant and published by DC Comics. DC claimed that this series would "strip down the Man of Steel to his timeless, essential elements".The series was the second to be launched in 2005 under DC's All-Star imprint, the first being All Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder. These series are attempts by DC to allow major comics creators a chance to tell stories showcasing these characters without being restricted by DC Universe continuity. [emphasis mine]The All Star Superman was not a single Superman but an amalgam or archetype of the iconic hero across his entire heritage encompassing all of his previous incarnations.This was done to allow a well known writer to try and expound on the legend of Superman unrestricted. Grant Morrison used elements from across the history of the character to create a single story that embodied every Age of Superman.All-Star Superman is not the canon character of Superman, he is the paragon of the archetype.Parts of this essay originated on the Science Fiction and Fantasy Stack Exchange.
