The more effort you put in, the better it may turn out to be. But there's a limit and it doesn't necessarily translate to a good mark. One's capabilities are measured in many ways, and some may not be directly or easily measured. Being able to score well in exams - however stupid they may seem at times - does at least show that one's capable of acquiring certain type of knowledge, perform under certain kind of pressure and perhaps a little time management. It of course doesn't mean one's good enough if he's able to do well in school. But a good record certainly looks better at first sight than a bad one. It’s not true.
