I had excellent grades in elementary school, then in high school it became excellent grades in subjects that interested me. It's when I got to college and university that it became more like "struggling to get anything done at all cause I forgot about or pushed back every assignment". A lifetime of winging it didn't prepare me at all for courses where I couldn't review the material 15 minutes before the exam and hope for decent grades lol
