If you could either have high intelligence paired with low creativity or low intelligence with high creativity, which would you pick? And why?
I couldn't decide right away, but I would choose creativity. With just intelligence you can accomplish a lot, but I believe it's easier to accomplish greatness with creativity because things innovation, uniqueness, and originality are often key to the ideas that make the biggest difference and stand out.
Also, I think high intelligence is more common than high creativity, I don't have any stats to back this up, and I'm not even sure if you can test for creativity... perhaps you could test someone's divergent thinking.
I don't see how you can be intelligent and not creative. Creativity is subjective to others I guess...
