Someone who is a academically committed. It is usually not a good thing when it gets to extreme (complaining to the teachers about empty syllabi, unprofessional behavior etc.) Anyway, there are a lot of misconceptions about nerds. Here are a few:
1. Someone can act and look totally nerdy, but is an amazing athlete. Likewise, someone can look fit and great at playing cool, but can't play sports to save their life.
2. Nerds can act like nerds at school, but when they get home, they are just like any regular kid who is not a nerd (maybe even more awesome!) This is sometimes but not always caused by parents who are very strict about academic performance.
Jock: You're a nerd I'm gonna beat the shit outta you!
Nerd: All right.
Jock: *punches a double punch*
Nerd: *blocks it and side thrusts in the Jocks face which immediate knocks jock dead.* I'm gonna go out and play some football with the Jocks!

I found the word jock on here, and every definition I read (about 15) was negetive. I then got curious and searched nerd, and every one of those defnitions were positive. Many of those gave nerds extreme dominance. I sense a little bias. I think we know what steriotype gets on this site the most.

Contrary to popular belief nerds are not necesarilly the honor roll, teacher pet students people think they are. No the Nerd subculture is made up of gamers, otaku, and fanboys.
These guys and girls don't go home and do homework and study. No, they spend all after school and all of their free time playing online multiplayer games, playing YugiOh, and watching anime and reading comic books. Kids who actually study and do homework are just smart. Most of them tend to be either overweight or underweight, they gorge on junk food, and whenever they're on Xbox Live or 4Chan they front and pretend to be badasses when in real life they'd get their asses handed to them from lack of exercise.
Don't be fooled you can be a gamer or manga lover without being a nerd it's just that nerds are obsessed with video games and anime/manga. Also for the real nerds when girls say they love nerdy guys, they're usually talking about hipsters who wear the whole nerd outfit of thick frame glasses and plaid shirts, not your pathetic asses.
Nerds spend almost all of their free time playing video games, playing trading card games, reading manga, or watching anime and cartoons and rarely ever socialize with anyone outside of the Internet.

One who excells at anything in the odd, smart sense. A nerd is one who enjoys computers, videogames, D&D, and other generally nerdy subjects. Either loves or hates Bill Gates, the richest and nerdiest human being on this planet. The word was first mentioned in Dr. Suess's "If I Ran the Zoo".

The nerds will all eventually controll all money in the world.

Someone who attends school and is glued to their textbooks for most of the time and never misses a single word the teacher or professor says. They are often over-achievers who score very high or even perfect on term tests and exams - and many wonder how afterwards. They do however lack a social life. They are rarely seen hanging out with friends, playing games, going to the mall, or going to the movies.
Anyone can become a nerd if they want to or are "forced" to due to high expectations from friends, parents, etc.
How the heck is Kevin scoring 90s on every test in math class? Man he's such a nerd!
