View submission: Do highschool grades matter?
Your mistake here is assuming that grades are your "one skill in life." I am sure there are plenty of things you are good at and plenty of things you COULD be good at given the effort.
I wish I'd learned earlier that practicing something daily is the most powerful skill in the universe. If you want to get good at anything, just practice it.
But that's just another way of saying there are plenty of things you can do. You're young and life is long.
Also, good grades mean you have a big head start over everyone else. It's amazing how much it gives you an entryway to a much nicer life than other people have. You have a shot at the best jobs, etc. It's not everything but it's certainly something.
There's nothing here!
