AOC an idiot, far from it.
"Ocasio-Cortez attended Yorktown High School, graduating in 2007.[20] She came in second in the Microbiology category of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair with a microbiology research project on the effect of antioxidants on the lifespan of the nematode C. elegans.[21] In a show of appreciation for her efforts, the MIT Lincoln Laboratory named a small asteroid after her: 23238 Ocasio-Cortez."
"She graduated cum laude from Boston University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2011, majoring in international relations and economics"
