What Class Rank Says About Health

Roni Rabin of New York Times reports that research and studies have shown that students with better class ranks have better health. Students who perform better in school tend to have acquire occupations with more job security than students who perform poorly. In addition, high class ranked students have better habits and manage their life better. The high-level of learning increases critical thinking and cognitive skills needed in life. Generally, high ranked students have the "psychological characteristics" of a hardworking student such as diligence, time management, responsibility, and they are able to learn and operate more effectively.
