Date: November 11, 2014 05:13AM Way back in time, when computers were first hitting the business world, my step mother was in graduate school at Harvard and told me her little story that fits in nicely with this study.
She said she was the only woman in the computer class and was freaking out the whole time because she said she had no idea what was going on right up until the time of finals and was afraid she was going to flunk out. All the while the guys were as calm as could be and were confident they understood everything. In the end she was the only one who got an A. Re: Dunning–Kruger effect

Date: November 11, 2014 06:07PM most people that get good grades are good followers and make good employees by doing what they are told. I've known people that were excellent on their field, but they did not pass school even when they could teach the teacher. People get good grades and that's what they are good at - being trained. In the end, good grades/titles can be phony medals that don't carry any weight. They studied only to get a good paying job. Pasion is way more important as it makes you be yourself. But that is what the system penalizes because it punishes those getting away from the herd. I don't mean that getting bad grades is good. Neither that getting good grades is bad. It depends on the person. Re: Dunning–Kruger effect
