You surely must remember the fact that Harry earned an "Exceeds 
Expectations" in his Defense Against the Dark Arts O.W.L.S, and he 
taught the subject to his fellow students in the DA!  In addition to 
all THAT - Harry stunned his examination teachers, not to mention 
the Wizard Court - with the fact that he can produce a full, 
corporeal Patronus!  In fact, his examination teacher had heard of 
this fact and asked him to produce the Patronus in his examination.

All of this information was in Order of the Pheonix.  All of this 
information points to the fact that Harry is a very gifted wizard - 
more gifted that wizards his own age normally are.  So Harry does 
indeed stand out amoung his peers!  Hermione (someone help me here) 
said in one of the HP books that Harry was a great Wizard.

Harry may not be the greatest herbologist or potions maker, but he 
is a great wizard with exceptional talent. Your memory seems to be 
very selective in this regard.
