Strands #327
“Get smart”

Hi Strands fans. Rather unfortunately for a puzzle concerning synyonyms for intelligence, I had to use a clue to get started.
It revealed QUICK in the bottom-right corner, and when I saw BRIGHT to its left, the theme of "Get smart" belatedly clicked. I appreciate this means I can't apply any of the answers to describe myself today, however.
Anyway, I then found BRILLIANT in the top-left corner, followed by CLEVER diagonally opposite. I had actually already spotted the word "genius" on its own, but now with enough of the board filled I could see how it extended into the spangram of THATSGENIUS.
That just left INTELLIGENT in the top-left corner to complete the puzzle.
