Comment on Ask HN: Did Anyone Else Here Simply Not Do Well at School?

Comments

I was bad in school during the first 6 years or so. Then something started to click and I got better, especially at languages. I was not putting a lot of work in but was still being able to graduate my technical college with the perfect grades, my German exam work had not a single mistake in it.

Curiously, my feeling is that even years after things still got easier for me. I am convinced that a particular kind of intelligent person might just take longer to get adjusted to the school system. For some this will also happen after school.
