Do you guys ever think that you'll never be good at the sciences and math, or am I the only brainlet here?

thinking you suck at something is proof you are good at it. see: dunning-kruger effect. myself i think i suck at everything.

You do? But I can bet that you're a higher level math that I can't even begin to comprehend. I'm such a brainlet that integral problems with trig identities throw me off.

I see it purely in terms of time and effort. If I spend time and effort I get good at it. If I don’t I don’t. The people who seem like savant geniuses have been doing it consistently for a while so they are in flow. To get to flow you need to withstand a few weeks of feeling stupid

It’s consistent with how expert people feel (because they know their own limitations and problem areas in the research) but it is also consistent with how very amateur people feel. So it is not a reliable benchmark.
