The Straight-A Paradox Nobody Talks About
Here's what nobody tells you about the highest-achieving students: they study *less* than everyone else. When Cal Newport entered Dartmouth, he watched classmates pull all-nighters while he finished his work by dinner. Over four years, he earned 35 perfect A's out of 36 courses-not by grinding harder, but by cracking a code that most students never discover. At his Phi Beta Kappa induction, he realized something remarkable: the thirty highest-GPA students weren't just academically gifted. They were athletes, club presidents, social butterflies who had independently stumbled upon the same counterintuitive secret. The formula isn't about dedication or intelligence. It's about understanding a simple equation that changes everything.
