A decade ago, at the end of my first mester teaching at Captain, my student Jack stopped by for office hours. He sat down and burst into tears. My mind started cycling through a list of events that could make a college junior cry: His girlfriend had broken up with him; he had been accud of cheating in exams; he forgot to turn in papers before the deadline. "I just got my first A minus," he said.
Year after year, I watch in depression as students are crazy about getting straight A's. Some sacrifice their health; a few have even tried to charge their school after failure. They believe top marks are a ticket to elite graduate schools and rewarding job opportunities. I was one of them. I started college with the goal of graduating with a GPA of 4.0. It would be a reflection of my brainpower and willpower, showing that I had the right things to succeed. But I was wrong.
The evidence is clear: Across industries, rearch shows that the association between grades and job performance is modest in the first year after college and insignificant within a handful of years. For example, at Microsoft, once employees are two or three years out of college, their grades have nothing to do with their performance.( Of cour, it must be said that if you got D's, you probably wouldn't end up at Microsoft.)
Academic grades rarely asss qualities like creativity, leadership and teamwork skills, or social, emotional and political intelligence. Yes, straight A students master large amounts of information and reproduce it in exams. But career success is rarely about finding the right solution to a problem—it's more about finding the right problem to solve. This might explain why Steve Jobs finished high school with a GPA of 2.65, and Martin Luther King Jr. got only one A in his four years at Morehou.
