Well psychology has a lot to say about this. Studies show that men consistently overestimate their intelligence whereas women tend to underestimate theirs. Taking gender out of the equation, other studies have shown that people consistently rate themselves as "above average" regardless of whether or not that is actually true.

So no, the idea that people are aware that they are wrong or stupid has been proven false.

However, the interesting part of these studies is that your friends and family are extremely reliable when it comes to estimating your intelligence. So if your friends and family all think you are below average there is a greater than 70% chance that you will actually test as below average on an intelligence test.
