I'm really not very smart.
My only claim to fame is my good grades, my 100% on my spanish oral exam and my perfect attendance (which they don't recognize in college.)
At least I can fake being smart, right? I mean, as long as I get good grades people will continue telling me I am.
But I'm getting closer to graduating (two more years, it's close enough for me to freak out) and I can't really get good grades, get perfect attendance and get 100% tests in the real world.
I'm fucked.
I'm antisocial and talentless.

I am the same way. I feel this way about myself and it's devistating sometimes. But I'll tell you what.... it's a symptom of being an overachiever and having low self-esteem. We really are smart, otherwise we wouldn't do as well as we do. I beat myself up over the same stuff.
I don't really know what the solution is, but damn... if you find out, let me know? I'll certainly tell the world if I do. It's really not just you. I've heard therapy helps but I've not yet gone... I'd beat myself up over wasting the money probably.
I dunno if this is helpful or not. I read your post and it hit a chord with me since I feel very much the same way most of the time. :( *hugs*
