I was/am an Average or Achiever student

There are pros and cons to either being just an average student and an achiever student. When you're an achiever, there are a lot of people who'd look up to you, you'd be seen as a reliable person. And well, since you always make sure you get good or high marks getting into a university and even a job won't be very hard. If you choose to be just average, you'd still be a reliable person depending on which subject and what person would ask from you or if you'd volunteer yourself. Luck and more effort is needed if you'd want to apply. But I think the redeeming side of it is that, if you don't have many people expecting a lot from you, there's not many who'd get disappointed from you if ever you fail. There is stress but somewhat different from the achiever, maybe a level lower. But I think, whatever we are/were as a student or a person doesn't matter as long as we like and are not forced to be that type. Probably being an achiever is by choice, and even if there are stresses and a lot of expectations but if its what we want, that's how we do things then it's ok. I think that way will keep one in check. I'm just average but I try to be more serious sometimes, I want to take things as stress free as possible and with minimum people expecting a lot from me.
