1. Street Smarts vs. Book Smarts By: Arjun Kumar

2. When we explore this topic, we often think about the difference between those who do well in school and are labeled “book smart” versus those who may not do as well at school, but have a wealth of information pertaining to things outside of school that we typically identify as “street smart.” We are going to talk the difference between street smarts and book smarts. INTRODUCTION :

3. DEFINITIONS: Meaning of Book Smart & Street Smart . Book Smart : Book smart person who is intelligent and very well educated academically (from School to College) .   Street Smart : Street smart person who is smart, common sense and knows how to handle important situations in his public life but is not well-educated academically .

4. Comparison between Book Smart & Street Smart : Book smart Clever, but not intelligent Naive Easily manipulated Bad judgment in critical situations Work alone Learns through Experience of others Street Smart Smart Practical Knowledge Common sense, Leader Life experience Good judgement in critical Situations Collaborative person

5. “The prime distinction between street smarts and book smarts is who is at the center of the knowledge . On the street, it’s you. In a book it’s you trying to absorb someone else’s take on the world, and however amazing the writer is, you are at best one degree removed from the actual experience. Street smarts means you’ve put yourself at risk and survived. Or thrived. Or have scars. You’ve been tested and have a bank of courage to depend on when you are tested again. Being street smart can lead to book smarts as the street smart sense what works and what doesn’t, and adapt accordingly.”

6. Experience Life Learn as Much as You Can Learn from YOUR OWN Mistakes

7. CONCLUSION: Street smarts are the leaders who lead the book smarts . Street are the path breakers while book smarts follow the path set up by the street smart. So the Street smarts are always dominant over the book smarts.
