you still are going to get into a university, but your parents are still pushing really hard, if you can maintain say an 85 or above and keep working hard, a good aim would be to be in the top 10 percent and be in organizations that make you look even better to colleges like band, Key Club, StuCo, Uil Science math, etc. But those are still good grades. Try not to let them get to your head entirely and focus on doing your best and having fun, your just starting high school have fun.

Your grades are good enough to get into a good university. There are many other factors including the standardized tests.
No one at medical school will care what your high school grades were. They'll want to see your college grades, especially in sciences, and your standardized test scores.

no, you need to just basically work as hard as you can with you stressing you self out and don't let your grades slip
if you work to your full potential you'll do great
Also make sure you choose the right classes and electives (don't take too many pointless ones) and join the clubs like HOSA and the science honors society
