Yeah even with all these resources availible I find they rarely use them due to their own laziness. In fact it seems like guys who are already decently smart but looking for that extra push are the ones using those resources. I even know in my case i'm in after class getting help from the teacher and usually i'm the only one there.

That's complete b.s. I worked my a** off to get my grades. All my friends with good grades work way harder than people who get lower grades than them. I know alot of kids that say they don't study hard but often times it's just so they don't seem like a nerd. I've done it in the past when I used to think doing good in school wasn't the "cool" thing too do. Chances are the kids who "don't study" actually do put in alot of work.
