Intellectual yet idiots

People who are naturally gifted at writing essays and taking tests. This natural ability helps them breeze through primary education and gets them to elite colleges and universities. There, they are taught by professors (many of whom are the kind of people good at writing essays and taking tests). The professors are so impressed by their students’ test-taking and essay-writing abilities that they write glowing letters of recommendation on behalf of the students, so the students can get jobs working in government, politics, the media, or academia. The only problem with these people is they don’t know how to do anything. Virtually their entire lives have been spent in classrooms. These people could write brilliant essays on how to change a tire, but should their own car get a flat, they would have to call AAA to fix it. They are intellectuals, yet idiots
