Alicia has trouble persisting at tasks and fears failure. Her grades are far lower than one would expect based on her intellectual ability. She is a(n):

an underachiever.

Explanation:

An underachiever is a person or student who scores below what is expected from them. Such students are those who have potential to achieve success and people expect from them to score well but they fail in doing so.

Such underachievements may be caused due to fear of failure, anxiety, low self-confidence or self-esteem, or familial causes.

In the given scenario, Alicia has symptom of fear of failure which caused her to be an underachiever.

So, the correct answer is that Alicia exemplifies to be an underachiever.

Underachiever.

Explanation:

An underachiever is one who secures lower success rates or victories than expected of him/ her. The inability to achieve the highest potential and does not succeed up to the mark that others had expected from him/ her makes the person an underachiever.

So, when Alicia still fails even after persistent efforts at her work and often fails, securing grades lower than others would have expected. This underachievement, which seemed so unnatural considering her intellectual ability, makes her an underachiever.
