Just remember, their are people out there who just don't have the intelligence to be right at the top, despite strenuous hours of work. For this reason, their calling is in other fields.

More often than not, it's not a matter of intelligence, but it's that they're not working correctly and hence, they have issues with applying what they've learnt. I don't think any VCE subject requires intelligence, it's just understanding really, it's not a psychometric test/intelligence test.

Aim high, that goes without saying.  If you shoot for the stars but land on the moon you've done well.
