While good grades indicate subject knowledge, they also show the ability to structure time, put one’s head down and slog. What this means is that, while good grades point towards innate – as well as learned – intelligence, bad grades do not always indicate the lack of intelligence. Good grades are neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition to achieve success, however you define it. So, while you aim for good grades, don’t let them define you. There is more than one route to the top.
