Masatoshi Koshiba, who just won 25% of this year’s Nobel Prize in physics (I didn’t even know you could be a 25% winner), graduated last in his class at Tokyo University over 50 years ago.
He only made two A’s in his last two years of college, both of which were in lab classes where the grade was based on attendance.
Hmmm.… makes you think, doesn’t it?
Evidently he took the Teacher’s words to heart: “Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body.” (Ecc 12.12b, NIV)
