Answer 1

Don't dumb yourself down for anyone in order to fit in.  People who don't like you because you are smart are not worth having as friends.  Smart people appreciate and want to be around other smart people.  I was one of the really smart people in high school, and I hung around with all sorts of people, both the popular crowd and the not-so-'in' crowd.  You will be the better for it.

Answer 2

im one of the most popular kids in my school ( jock, football and basketball captain) and im always invited to all the parties and everything

and i get a 3.8 gpa

Answer 3

I'm male, I always did (although I NEVER touched drugs at all and would rather have died than do so).  So I would say  yes, you can be popular and smart -- in fact, it wasn't even a problem for me -- mostly I think we make our own problems when we have them.
