At the beginning of the book, Ponyboy describes himself as having a high IQ (intelligence quotient- how smart you are), getting good grades, but not using his head. What does that tell you about Ponyboy?

He is posing, pretending to not use his head, so he can fit in with the gang.

He's a dreamer.

His smoking has made him forgetful and spacey.

He doesn't care about anyone or anything.
