A kid of average intelligence would receive average marks, no?

99+ but how can anyone comment without seeing your marks?

what do you mean by dumb?

There is a kid in my Geography class who is a "bogan" and talks with great stupidity, he started studying heaps and he's been getting 80-90%s and I wonder if he could actually get a decent mark in the HSC despite his nature... I wondered what u guys would think?

Average intelligence but works their arse off? ~98 from my experience

Geography is not that hard of a subject, it scales down, so hence any one could do well, if they study.

Don't all subjects scale down except MX1 and MX2

i was like that in yr 10, so yes

he's talking about relative scaling.

but scaling does not reflect the difficulty of the course. that would be like saying that everyone could do well in visual arts if they put the effort in - which isn't true because I naturally suck at art.

Intelligence without hardwork is useless...If you work hard, you can increase your "intelligence", but not vice versa

+1

pretty much hardwork can elevate your intelligence.

 

[khorne]

Also depends on how you define it...

I don't work hard my intelligence has proved pretty useful so far. Being in top 40 in a top 5 school indicates my intelligence has some use.

Define: intelligence

Also some people might consider their intelligent but have effective study techniques instead.

People with average intelligence that work really hard generally do better in the HSC than those just naturally intelligent and lazy. you can get like a 98 from sheer hard work.
People who are dumb can still do well, if they work hard. but it caps at more like 85 or 90.
Although, some people just cant do it. usually by subject choice. people trying to memorise mx2 just cant, but they could if they did bio etc.
