First off, good grade do not equal going far in life.

but, often someone is popular because of the charisma they posess. this certinally is an asset in many lines of work.. So i doubt that popular kids are destine to fail.

Wrong. First of all, much too broad. This sounds like a crap study to me.
In my group at school I have at least six friends who are incredibly cerebral and are at the same time "popular". I know they are all destined to do great things. Willpower.

I think that popularity varies and it's stupid to treat all popularity the same.
Bytheway, none of my friends have ever had someone carry their books for them..

Could you post a link to the study? Sounds really flawed to me.
I would have to ask my friend for the sheet (he photocopied it for the class on a piece of paper). I wouldn't know where in god's name my copy is. D:

I'd consider myself popular, but I am a competant student. I've had a reading level of a sixteen year old since I was ten, have passed all of the tests I have taken with an over average score and am hoping to have a decent future.
I also have an active social life and everyone knows me, and almost everyone likes me, thanks.

Any clue when it was done, who did it, the title?

I'm willing to invest some time looking it up...

I didn't mean it in an offensive way. No need to spazz. I'm just the messenger.
