If you are not"A"students，don't lose heart．Many successful people，like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates，were once only"C"students when they were young．So why"C"students can manage to become super successful？
1They understand what they want earlier than others
"C"students don't spend much time on the unnecessary classes we all have to．They stop taking the required classes and pay more attention to subjects that can help them during their work．Steve Jobs never finished college and made it to the top of IT industry only because he only did what he liked．He once said："The only way to succeed，is to love what you do．Keep looking，don't settle"．
2They get first-hand experience．
Most"C"students start working earlier than those of the same age to make a living．At the same time，they get priceless experience that every"A+"graduate is missing．And we all know that you are less likely to be hired without rich experience．
3They build networks．
While"A"students are learning unnecessary subjects，"C"students read tons of useful literature and communicate with many people every day．In real life，knowing powerful people as well as the ability to communicate can make a difference in your career．
4They find the simplest solutions．
Bill Gates is one of the many successful people who cannot show off with their college marks．However，he managed to get to the top by building Microsoft．Bill Gates is very open-minded and unlike others，he never looks at grades．Moreover，he thinks it is important to think outside-the-box．One of his famous words："I will always choose a lazy person to do a hard job．Because he will find an easy way to do it"．
