How Good Was Elon Musk In School?

[@th1nk_outside]

the smartest kids do what they want and not what the teacher wants and later in life its the same: they do what they like and not neccessary what makes money

[@danielfourie39]

It’s so weird that Elon musk was once in the high school that I am currently in

[@sibusisotwala3528]

He's actually a winter baby since he was born in the southern hemisphere

[@ninjapirate123]

Yes he is, the owner of this video didn't mention it

[@TumiMokotong]

@Vikas Kumar Except, it doesn't. School starts in Jan and ends in Dec in South Africa. And as already mentioned, he was actually born in winter. The whole basis of this video is, therefore, completely wrong.

[@potatojuice9615]

@Vikas Kumar no it does not

[@ninjapirate123]

@Vikas Kumar It doesn't. In the southern hemisphere, the school year is 1 whole calendar year, which means it starts in Janaury or february and ends in December

[@classicleslie6914]

That's fascinating

[@shanechurilla]

1:22 my dad has a friend who went to school with Musk 2 years above, and he’s great, but he’s a tough South African guy and recalls being a bully. We have a joke that he’s Elon’s childhood bully

[@ninjapirate123]

Did your dad friend attend Bryanston or Pretoria boys high?

[@weljenks]

You didn’t mention his time at the university of Toronto or Penn. And he was also accepted into Stanford’s physics PHD program for material science so he obviously applied himself in college.

[@bellabeetleproductions_dogdad]

Queen's University, not UofT,

[@bg73]

What they forgot to mention or maybe even don't know... In the Southern Hemisphere the school year is the same as a calendar year, it starts in January and ends in December...

[@ninjapirate123]

exactly

[@bingsterc7621]

Peers of Einstein and Tesla said the same things about them as well. Look, what they did during their adult years. Now, the thing about Einstein, Tesla, and especially Elon is that school to them was probably a complete bore and nuisance to them, meaning school was more than likely not challenging enough for them. Therefore, they would do just enough to get by in their courses and pass them. Doing well in school doesn't always mean that you'll be successful in life or be a genius. There are a cubic shit load of well known people who were/are successful in life or were/are considered geniuses, that didn't do particularly well in school.

[@butWhyDad]

I don't think any teenager or kid determines what is boring or not by the challenge. Simply he was only into certain books, video games, and making games because just like anyone else school teaches so much stuff in a super boring setting about things children don't care about.

[@NadineLynch10]

As a South African, June is winter and December is summer, Elon was born as a winter baby and I am a summer baby.

Musk said: I got distinctions in physics in high school. Which is hilarious. According to Wikipedia, Musk got a B in math in his senior certification year. Which in South Africa’s grading system is 60%-69% out of 100%. Someone who is very good in physics in high school, is also very good at math too.

[@Blueboygt]

I swear that my son is not the brightest cookie out there in school, but his strengths are computer and making computer games, as well he loves space and science, and believe or not he as well performs well on math, but everything else is below average, he doesn't seem interested on leaning things that to him are boring. My son is autistic and have many gifts , from photographic memory and as well can draw and do sculptures out of clay and he is good at it. And if something is not coming to plan he will destroy whatever he is doing and start again until it is perfect. Some times I wonder if one day my son will be part of the world that will leave his imprint about creating something important or beneficial to people. I pray to God to guide him in the right path to do right in the world.

Somehow he lost himself and everybody thinks of him as weird. Not cool, not a hero, not a villan, but just weird. And the fact that he now supports Trump, after he first advised Trump a year or so ago to sail into the sunset. The man is a flashing light. On/off, left/right, for/against. Like I said… he’s weird.

He didn’t invent the electric car, not at all, he also did not invent anything to improve it. He hired people who did. Similar to Gates and Jobs, neither wrote the software that made the companies, they teamed or hired people who could.
