Art,
I've never been school smart but I've made millions of dollars being very street smart.
It all comes down to motivation.
If you want to be a trader so you can use your intellect I think your in trouble, thinking too much on Wall St. is a not a good idea. In my "personal experiences" with Wall St I've found the richest are usually the ones with the most street smarts, so I guess the question is would you rather be rich or would you rather be intelligent.
