That's what I'm saying though. Grades dont always reflect the amount of work put in. Like I said, the smartest students don't always have the best work ethic.

An average student can put in twice the work and be passionate about their field of study but only get an average of 75%. On the other hand the genius only needs to put in 50% of the effort because they excel at whatever classes due to just being that much smarter.

Believe it or not, instructors know who's putting in the effort and working hard. Just a couple weeks ago my instructor that teaches our class that's worth the most credits said if I need a reference letter just let him know.
I don't have the highest grades, in fact I know I'm just somewhere in the middle, but I work my ass off. IMO a reference letter from an instructor says more than an 86%+ GPA.
