I hate how people deny how important IQ and intelligence are. Hard work only takes you so far

Not everyone is equally smart, and some people can do tasks on the fraction of time of others. In high school, I had to study 5-7 hours per day outside of class to get As while many of my peers got As with minimal studying. I didn’t have time for socializing and extracurriculars, and that killed me when it came to applying to college.

Sure, a less intelligent person can outwork an intelligent but lazy person, but all it takes is for the intelligent person to press the gas pedal a little before they leave you behind in the dust.
