Study reveals water is wet

Shocking study, Poor health habits in U.S. teens lead to poor grades from the CDC, reveals that good values and behaviors lead to good life outcomes and bad values and behaviors lead to bad life outcomes. Thanks goodness for studies to shine light on such arcane issues.
Analyzing data from a 2015 federal government survey, the researchers found that compared to students with mostly A's, students with mostly D's and F's were:
nine times more likely to say they'd injected illegal drugs.

five times more likely to say they'd skipped school at least one day in the past month due to safety concerns.

four times more likely to say they'd had four or more sexual partners.
And compared to students with mostly D's and F's, the A-range students reported healthier behaviors. The better students were:
twice as likely to eat breakfast every day in the past week.

1.5 times more likely to have been physically active at least 60 minutes a day on five or more days in the past week.
