So you think having intimate relationships intentionally makes you grade E? Why?

I didnt intend that is true for all people in all situations. Some may allow some other social contructs to take priority of their studiou nature and flunk out. I think ive seen this in movies or tv series. Smart person is failing and teacher doesnt understand why.  Hypothetical.

Survivalship bias. Those TV series are mostly fictional and those real people who deserve video cut works are already the chosen few.

Smart person is failing and teacher doesnt understand why.
Either the smart person was not trying or the teacher is not smart. What else?

Some may allow some other social contructs to take priority of their studiou nature and flunk out.
Doing so after college is fine and normal, doing so before college is not.

I'm probably beating a dead horse here, but grades are factored on two things.  The ability to retain the information and the desire to do the work.  I HATED doing homework so I never did it and I never did the projects either.  I zeroed on all my homework assignments that I couldn't finish in class.  I never did the projects.  However, when taking the tests and finals, I would ace them.  I graduated HS with a 2.3 GPA (I think).  To me a GPA is how much effort you put into school.  I was VERY lazy in my HS years.
