Absolutely. My grades definitely dipped in high school but then were appropriately geeky again by college and through grad school.
oh man that is so the opposite with me. I peaked academically senior year of high school and freshmen year of college. My college grades were a start at the top and then slow decline. I actually went 5 years to college and if it was any longer I might have not made it. (did come out with two majors which was such a huge mistake. darn those college nerd friends influence.)
That sounds familiar. I knew lots of folks whose motivation was highest at the start of college and then the grind started wearing on them by the end.
My lopsided experience was mostly due to undiagnosed ADHD. "Gifted" when young, distracted by girls and unknown ADHD as a teen, then finally diagnosed at 20 and my grades came back around.
You were able to be distracted by girls? Fucking nerd. I wish I had gotten my nose out of the books long enough to be distracted.
