Not good enough according to whose standards? If your own, maybe it would serve you well to lower them a little? Ask yourself what benefit you are getting trying to strive for 10% as opposed to, say, 95%? They are both A's. They will both get you a 4.0. No one will care about those 5 percentage points in the long run.

If it is other peoples' standards, then you should learn only to care about what's important to you. I know that's really tough.

Otherwise, seriously stop being so tough. You will burn yourself out and then you will do a lot worse.
