[quote=Anonymous]Are you asking for your kids? Or what is the purpose of your question? Intelligence plays a significant role, crucial, I would say, in many ways. If you have a child with a below-average IQ, it is questionable how much they can retain, including learning how to study. On the other hand, an open mindset is also important compared to a closed mindset, which might develop in many brilliant children if they are told they are super bright and everything comes easily when they start school. They are likely to give up, but then they have to put in effort and study, and might refuse to learn, thinking that if they don't understand it, it is not possible to grasp it. I believe that fostering strong study skills, effort, and an open mindset is key to a successful academic year. [/quote]
