Smart?

<p>Is anyone else out there like this? Is there any college level people or higher that have been successful with this?
Im a Senior next week.
My whole Junior year i was determined to get good grades in school after starting out high school not caring with a B- average.
During class i listened pretty well but before when i really didnt care about school i wouldnt study for tests and quizes so i usually got C on them.
Since junior year i studied for every test knowing that I usually did bad on them when i didnt study, so i stayed up from 9 to 1am studying hard core, non stop memorizing pages of notes. I usually literally could memorize every page ( from about 1-6 pages of full notes front and back) and i could repeat them only with a few help hear or there and the next day get above a 90% or A- and above on the tests and quizes. Can i make it through college and graduate school doing this? The only way I can get an A is if I remember everything in the lesson before the test.
Smart kids usualy can get A's without memorizing everything</p>

<p>Many students employ strategies to empower themselves towards success. Individuals possessing “superior intelligence” have simply maximized their potential; by a process in which they have determined what works and what doesn’t (i.e. learning from mistakes). You too can maximize on your potential and perfect methods that will positively contribute to your academic, social and emotional well-being.</p>
