Grades may show how you're doing in school but not how smart you are. That's why your passion matters more. ***For example, in the article “6 Reasons Your Grades Do Not Define Your Intelligence” by Monica Cardone says “intelligence refers to one's ability to learn, understand and apply knowledge and skills. But it doesn’t count for much if you don’t have the drive to do any of those things”. *** This means if you're being taught something you don’t care about you're not gonna put the effort in to retain the information therefore you will not become intelligent about what you were learning about. This ¨ your passion matters more¨ idea goes for everything really. For example, you can't find happiness in something you don't enjoy because then you're just wasting your time and doing something that serves you no purpose just like grades don’t.
