I'm going through something similar like this with my parents. I'm taking AP English, AP Computer Science, Psychology, Physics Honors, and PreCalc (I'm in 11th grade too).
I try my best in all my classes, but unfortunately, I have a low grade in math - it fluctuates between a high C and a low B. And I can honestly say that's the best I can do.
However, my mom is constantly on my case about doing my best and getting good grades and "and C won't look good on your transcript". I know she means well, but it's the best that I can do!
She pesters me about school all day - when I'm not in my room that is. That's all I ever talk about with her.
I never really talk to my dad about anything.
What I do is just study and do the best I can, without overloading and studying like a maniac. I always set aside some time for "me" and to just chill.
I do most of my work on the internet (virtual school), so if I feel that I need some downtime, I'll tell my parents I'm doing schoolwork and get online to play games, visit forums, or work on my GFX. That way, we're both happy.
Anyway, good luck with everything. I hope it all works out for you :]
