Can we become smarter?

Is it possible to become smarter as time goes on? I've noticed that over the last few years, my understanding of things has just increased. My overall GPA has also increased as well. Is there an explanation for all of this?

Probably a combination of working harder and working out how you learn best. I've found that I'm doing better in classes for one of my majors than I did a year or two ago, but my grades for my other major are roughly the same. It's not because I've gotten smarter, it's because I don't learn the same way for both majors.

Yes. Intelligence is malleable.

So of course that means on the flip side it's also possible to become more stupid as time goes on. Just keep challenging yourself in order to prevent that.

Ironically, this is one of the dumber questions I've read.

Of course dog, you learn things over time, and your brain is growing and changing.

Of course m8
