An educated idiot is someone that confuses education with intelligence. To them, in order to be seen as intelligent you need to do very well in academics.
They fail to consider ambition plays a larger role in academics than intelligence does.
Being smart/intelligent is more than just earning good grades and having a post secondary education.
Anybody that thinks this way is arrogant, because they think that they are smarter, which in turn makes them dumber because they think they're too smart to receive information from people with 'less credentials' thus lacking critical thinking skills.
'"I hate when people confuse education with intelligence, you can have a bachelor’s degree and still be an idiot.” -Richard P Feynman
