Isn't that a good thing? Grades shouldn't be an IQ test. It's pretty much meaningless if you're not significantly below average or using it for super specialized tasks. Getting good grades means you can sit your ass in a seat (be it at a public library or a private tutor) and learn enough to do well on some task.
Yes, good grades doesn't mean you would be necessarily be good at some task. But it shows you can succeed in something that requires effort.
