not everyone has the same expectations or priorities as you and some worry more easily than others why dont you try to look at things from a perspective other than your own you stupid self-centered faggot.
No, come on, it's not that. I once dated a girl who was so achievement-oriented that, while she was interning, developed a blocked ureter and kept plugging away in her LevFin group, delaying her own kidney surgery and eventually lost one of her kidneys because of it.
I'm not saying that this girl is a bad person, but you've got to keep people like her away from you with a ten-foot pole because they might value their own achievements over their health, their relationships, their friendships, etc. And that's when it gets fucked up.

This bitch deserves a furious and fiery cock slap to the face. "HELP, I'm getting an A, I'm failing at life oh no~" Hold up, is this a serious thread? Just how badly do you want to push the Asian stereotype you little slut? You want to flaunt your grades that badly? What's that? Even your (once) proud and admiring parents have become so incredibly jaded by your outstanding grades that they don't even give a shit anymore? I had a friend who had pretty good grades and classes, but he worried about them all the time.
Over the summer of senior year, he was essentially forced to study at home five hours a day every day in the summer after eight hours interning as a programmer, because he didn't get into the private schools he and his parents wanted him to get into, who also made him turn down basically every invitation he ever got from friends to hang out, visit friend's houses, video games, movies, etc and this state of affairs had been going on essentially since sophomore year.
BUT MAN I GUESS HE WAS A RETARD ABOUT WORRYING ABOUT HIS GPA LOLOLOLOL
Well, I'll be damned. So you want to waste these poor internet denizens' time in order to boost your flattened ego! You create a phony "On no, I'm worried help me!" thread title to lure unsuspecting browsers. YEAH MAN HOW CAN ANYBODY BE GENUINELY WORRIED ABOUT GRADES
Secretly, you are dying with anticipation, smirking sinisterly, waiting for the inevitable praise and reassurance that yes, indeed, you are a fucking genius. LOL YEAH A- LOLOLOL WHO THE FUCK GETS AS ANYWAY

A-'s arent good enough for some people, deal with it. she goes to fucking UCI, if she really expected that much of herself she would've committed suicide already. in this particular case, it looks less like a valid concern (like read the fucking thread she made) than you hypothesize it could be. just because the possibility is there that the girl is just making a thread in an internet forum, telling everyone about one A- in her straight As because she expects alot of herself, doesn't mean there isn't also the possiblility that she could actually be fucking showing off and looking for validation or consolation in getting an A-.
plus, if the girl had any perspective, she would know all she would get is fucking "oh no you're fiiiiine lol ur smarter than me wtf stop worrying" replies

well ok i dont know what UCI is like, but i know people who've gone to bad local schools instead of better ones bcuz of other circumstances. good students exist at bad schools too??????
i read the thread she made. sure theres a possibility that she could be showing off. but really, it looks like genuine harmless concern and the OP is uncalled for.

unless she lives near irvine, which iuno, i doubt?
to me, it looks like she overestimates the importance of grades and underestimates the importance of uh... everything else...

Half of why I think this thread is stupid is because the OP is not really about asking "what the hell kind of people do that" but instead based around "man i should slap that bitch with my cock." That aside,
There are people who respond to getting into substandard schools by getting incredibly stressed out, especially if they've failed to live up to their standards. I think the mindset runs, "fuck i didn't do well in hs and now I'm here, shit, if i don't get straight As here i really do have to kill myself now." If it's not for that reason, if she got offered money by Irvine than elsewhere, that could be it, I have a friend who went to SD over Cal (partially) because she got a full ride there and little-none at Berkeley.

actually i looked it up the cost is around 25k. whoops, i dont know shit about berkley. whatever, 100k should be nothing for a girl with as high expectations as her

Well, she's at Irvine, so either she didn't get in elsewhere or she picked it over another UC for some reason or another. If it's the second, for whatever, maybe she's just a crazy worried perfectionist that unhealthily obsesses over grades; if she's gotten straight As all her life and she doesn't think she'll be able to keep it up in college; her courseload will only get harder than it is now and she might be really worried about that. I would agree that she is putting too much emphasis on grades and less on others, etc. But if it's the first (maybe it's rather unlikely, I don't know the stats too well), maybe her courseload was relatively easy or she had no extracurriculars to speak of and straight As through high school weren't enough to get her in, I would hesitantly guess at my theory, although of course it could just as easily not be that.
Either way I don't think the OP is called for.
