View submission: Do highschool grades matter?
I think there’s a bit of nuance between “getting good grades” and what the grades represent. The grades themselves will open opportunities for you, like college acceptance, scholarships, honor programs, etc. But that just gets your foot in the door. You need to be able to really *learn* to move forward from there. For example, good grades can get you into medical school, but you need a love of learning and many other life skills to actually be a successful doctor.
So if you’re focusing on getting good grades, just remember that grades are meant to represent what you’ve learned, they don’t exist in a vacuum. Good grades are useless if you’re not actually dedicated to learning.
