i would say he is pretty clever especially compared to the ones around him but sometimes his true age really shows and you realize he is a kid after all.

plus we dont know how discriptive the journals are since they guide him, id say he is pretty smart but im not too sure about him in school, when they are first introduced he was shown playing video games (maybe the real reson his parents sent him to his uncle, to get fresh air and stuff) solving puzzels should be something he finds entertaining, something like school may seem a little boring for him.

plus true geniuses are usually unrecognized for their genius in school, dipper strikes me as that type of person.
