TBH I think that was a bad definition.

Intelligence is an overall capacity to understand things. Intelligence is innate comprehension ability.

Quote:The measure you are describing is wisdom which is measured apart from education.

Nah, the point is that intelligence is innate and you can be taught things that you are too dumb to really understand. Education is about knowledge, and you don't have to be smart to know stuff. All knowledge requires is memory. Memorizing facts doesn't make you smart. Understanding them makes you smart.
