A picture of a man jumping into a lake as his friends look on, with overlaid text saying, “There is a correlation between intelligence and low impulse control”.

    People with adhd generally have poor academic performance due to lack of impulse control. Those who do perform are either treated with therapy and sometimes stimulants, or they brute force their way through on pure IQ. Cognitive control is very important in getting shit done regardless of intelligence.
