Intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence contribute to the development of an undergraduate in different ways. Intellectual intelligence enables an undergraduate to have a good memory and problem-solving abilities. Hence, undergraduates can analyze problems logically, absorb knowledge efficiently, and pursue high academic achievements. In comparison, emotional intelligence has an impact on academic development as well, by affecting intellectual capabilities. Psychological tests show feeling of rejection can dramatically reduce IQ by about 25%. Inversely, it is the quality of self-control that is regarded as necessary to perform well in intellectual performance. However, this competitive society does not need a “studiholic”; it asks for more—an undergraduate with confidence, self-motivation, and capability to communicate and cooperate with others. Emotional intelligence plays a crucial role to meet these standards. With high emotional intelligence, firstly, an undergraduate can study in a good state of mind. When he or she is stuck solving complicated problems, he/she will probably keep calm, be encouraged to go through the previous work, find and correct mistakes and finish the work successfully. Secondly, this student will probably interact well with class and professors, and probably be more likely to remain in education and have more opportunities to learn from others and build up solid friendships. In conclusion, intellectual and emotional intelligence make different contributions to the development of an undergraduate.
