In a way I fear doing too well in school because everybody will say so and so is smart and then I will feel pressure to keep it up and keep proving I'm smart. So I try to give people the impression that I'm not. The problem is I do care about my grades and getting bad grades is getting me down, especially since it's so important for getting accepted into college.
Do you think it's normal?

don't worry about them, just keep up the good work! Truth is, they are immature and not as responsible with their schoolwork as you are.
dont pay attention to them, do as well as you want on your work, they dont matter
Be humble about your capabilities, but stay focused on the work at hand. Be sure to spend far more time studying than talking about or worrying about studying.
When it comes to school, don't try and please anyone but yourself. Looking good for college will affect the rest of your life.
