Turns out that presidential wanna-be, John Kerry, earned basically the same grades as President George W. Bush when they both attended Yale. Of course, during the campaign, much was made of the fact that W was just an average student and it was implied that Kerry was just short of genius. The reality: Bush had received a cumulative score of 77 for his first three years at Yale and a roughly similar average under a non-numerical rating system during his senior year... [Kerry] got a cumulative 76 for his four years... He received four D's in his freshman year out of 10 courses, but improved his average in later years.




Here's the best part: "[Kerry's] top score was a 79, in another political science course. Another of his strongest efforts, a 77, came in French class."
