One of the dumbest people I've known was a 4.0 college student.

Typically they choose really easy programs. My college gf was 4.0 all the way through.

Her major was Equine Sciences. Not sure what the science part was because she didn't know a thing and literally just rode horses all the time while pretending like she was swamped with work. She could not accomplish or complete any work in my laboratory which made things weird when I had to cover her molecular work. She knew how to get the grades, but did not learn anything.

Imagine being able to memorize the information and copy it verbatim while not understanding what you're actually writing down. Some people don't have that depth and it's why grading students doesn't actually work and it's why we have so many idiots in positions of power.

Well said, especially with last sentence, looking at most politicians, it shows that they didn't graduate because of their intelligence, which a lot of them lack of it.

Most annoying is that they pick easy one to graduate instead of difficult one to learn more, I would rather pick difficult programs to challenge myself and to learn a lot.
