Graduating at the top of your class in any primary or secondary schooling is hardly going to impress me. Some of the dumbest people I know had the best grades and some deceptively intelligent people had the worst grades. I still remember in HS some straight-A girl asking me if 23 was a good ASVAB score. Maybe if you're school is infamously conceptive, I'd think different, but I'm more interested in what someone does outside grades. Meanwhile, I knew a guy that would always come to school high as shit, acted like a class clown and had the worst grades, but was surpsingly smart. If you were to look at this guy, you'd probably assume he had no real options for a future, but I was talking to him once and discovered he was a game developer in his free time and had made some petty neat games.
