<p>@Canuckguy You can type in anything in on Google and find research to back up your view. I am very skeptical that performing well throughout highschool is a precurser to a successful life. I personally got a low 2.- in highschool. Now I am currently maintaining a 4.0 with 21 units math/physics/chemistry while working. I go against everything this “research” you cited should predict. </p>
<p>How well a student performs in high school is a function of intelligence? Sure we can both agree there is a correlation but that totally dismisses your income bracket and environment in which you work and go to school in. Black people overwhelmingly under-perform in high school but to say that it is a function of their intelligence is of course ridiculous. My point… correlation does not prove causation. Your study is woo woo.</p>
