You are close to being a genius. An awkward expression but correct. Second option, is wrong because it can be interpreted as 'You are in the proximity of a genius'.
I faltered on the last question. I Chose "Close" Over "Near" as i Thought that " Near " is an Indian-ism which may not be correct. I reply i got was "both" is the correct any Can Somebody Please refer to their Wren and Martins and clarify.

'Close' is rather figurative or subjective to imply the sense, while "near' is objectively indicating narrowness of margin that a genius may keep off your standard.

The expressions 'close to' and 'near by' do not mean the same thing. 'Close' has greater applicability than 'near' in constructing sentences.
