[quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of real world examples of folks who were not stand out students that end up extremely successful. Research some of them and slip some info about them into conversation. A friend of mine says that studies show the "A" students end up working for the B students in life. . . find out if that is true. I personally know lawyer who went to went to an incredibly not "top notch" law school because its the only place he could get in. He did well there, transferred to a slightly better school in the area (because the school he was at was threatening to close due to budget problems). He now is a name partner at a very successful law firm in town (has three homes etc., etc.) He has a lot of awesome skills but great grades and test scores were not his thing (I infer this based on his initial struggle to get into a "good" law school).
