Before Hogwarts, Harry always got bad grades because the Dursleys prejudiced the teachers against him before the school year, and kept reinforcing it throughout- blaming him for everything, claiming he was a cheater, etc., and Dudley and his friends did it too. When he came to Hogwarts, he started getting good grades but he figured it was just because he was the Boy-Who-Lived, not because of his ability, not that overall grades seem to matter except on OWLs and NEWTs. And then he gets his OWL scores back, and they're all O's except for the interrupted exams. So he thinks he was given the wrong scores, or he wasn't graded impartially, and gets upset.
All ideas are free for the taking.
