A DNA test for college?

DNA can help predict who will graduate from college, a new study says.

The new research published in Nature Genetics Monday looked at 1.1 million people and found genetic correlations with educational attainment.

New techniques are allowing researchers to tie tiny DNA differences to physical characteristics, such as height. Now, those tools, which allow researchers to study bigger groups, can also give insights into behavior, though a lead author of the study told the MIT Technology Review that the results are too unreliable to accurately predict individual outcomes.
