The best GPA is the one that is absent. Grading generates crammers. Medical schools are populated with crammers. Soon AI will ravage their psyche. Instead of passion for knowledge, they crammed facts that AI spews in milliseconds.

The best schooling is unschooling.

That SAT is the best predictor should be expected. Lots of people prepare for SAT having fun and doing their own self-directed learning.

Interesting research, nevertheless.

btw: I guessed the age of that video by mike noise :)
