Grades and Ability


Do high grades imply excellent ability? Opinions vary from person to person.


Some agree that high grades reflect high intelligence and are thus indicative 1 of one’s ability. Students who do well in exams are therefore always favored in class. Others hold that grades have little to do with one’s ability. They point out that some students who do not well enough in school may also make great achievements.They take Edison for example, saying that Edison was considered not clever by his primary school teacher but became a very famous inventor later.


In my view, grades are important for us students. When people have no other ways to assess ability, they can decide whether we are qualified 2 for school place or position only from our grades.


Therefore, we must try to achieve high grades in school, even though they are not the only standard for our abilities.
