I smoked weed/legal 1-3 times a day for 4 months. There was a 3 week period that I wasn't sober longer than 3 hours. Weed fucks up your short-term memory. I can't stay on task very much anymore, my grades are still low even though I've been sober since December. People talk to me and I don't even comprehend certain things that they say. I don't have a problem with weed, but it can be very abusive and it actually does cause problems.
Any number of things can be the reason of your low grades. I know people who used weed daily for several years, and they have talked about their memory not being the same anymore. But, not so much that it's affecting their daily life. Today they are normal adults in work. The fact that some can't handle it, and others abuse it, doesn't mean it should be illegal to those who use it in a responsible way.
I was a nerdy straight A student all through highschool but once I started smoking I have a lot more friends, enjoy life more and STILL get straight A's. Marijuana shouldn't be illegal because YOU'RE a fucking idiot who can't handle it.

I can only reassure you that your experience is not typical ad I would look for another underlying nueroednocrine disorder before summarily blaming weed.
