Why are we different?

[Guest KAJN]

[align=left]Ok now I was talking with a friend of mine when suddenly he got beaten up by his parents. See he's not american. We're asian so I will explain a little thing.

 

Lets your Singapore:

 

"A" Means awesome, "A" mean you did great.

"B" means your still doing good.

"C" means your slipping a bit but your now at the average point.

"D" means your bad, you did bad bad bad bad.

"F" sometimes just mean you fail.

 

When your asian it's completely different.

 

"A" doesn't mean awesome any more, it means average.

"B" means Bad, because if you get a "B" your already below average, other asians are getting A's when you are getting B's

"C" Means Crap, your family are gonna lecture you, they will spank you a few times.

"D" mean Death. Your family are probably going to threaten to kill you.

And then an "F" stands for F***** because you know what, you will be abandoned, your family may throw you in a boarding school or something.

 

Now if your asian please write what most of the marks you get. If your other do the same.

 

And yes there was a video the same as this. Actually something happened before that video was taken which I can't really say.[/align]

[Skyfi]

i Know Im From Pakistan So My Parents Totally Follow That 2nd List It Pisses Me Off

[Yasu]

My parents don't Care... really

[Guest KAJN]

It may be different to you but I have more than 1 friend that has the same problem. Now it may not be true but this is how it works here. I even have friends in kuwait and lebanon and same same.

[Aximil]

I'm French. But, I live in North America. My scores mean basically the same thing as the Asian scores. Except, mine are a tiny bit better. "B" is average. An "F" is grounded.

You get Grounded for an F? ................ I get sent away if I get below a B thats why I regret getting a C or a B. My SAT came out and awkwardly I got an "A" so yeah I was nervous and scared.

[Junk Raver]

British.

 

And i failed my A-Levels, my parents couldnt give a crap:

 

But, as i said, im British, British tend to have the most uncaring parents.

[Guest KAJN]

An A is hard to get if your british. I tried the british version of school. IGCSE is very hard. SAT is a bit easier but still hard. Being asian or whatever place that has harsh parents could be dangerous or hazard to your life. When you get an A* it's like Bazard it's great. But It's hard to get.

[HelioSpark]

I get A's, but my parents wouldn't really care if I did badly.

 

I have many Asian friend, and they are all under the same stress you are. Some of their parentstake away everything...their friends, computers, cell phones, video games, tv, FOOD! until they study and get A's

[Junk Raver]

In my GCSE's i got B's and C's, and that was from a Poorly educating school. I could have easily have had A's if i had gone to a private or Non-Failing school.

 

The British Education System i feel is hard, mainly because sociaty is running down the schools and teaching methods.

 

I feel Education was best given when the cane was in use, and i do wish it could be brought back, to fight off failing education standards in Britain.

[Guest JoshIcy]

Eh... On my home island getting bad grades wasnt really a bad thing. You can always work on a plantation, work your way up and get a good education....

 

But if you did succeed, more power to you. Its more a 'do what you can but dont stress' thing...

Home Island = Big Island of Hawaii

[╬「Selatcia」╬]

My parents go by the good side of the signapore list and the bad side of the asian list.

If I get an A or B, my parents are proud. C or below and they just nag at me about pulling my grades up.

[Guest KAJN]

[align=left]Wombat: Yes that did happen to 5 or more of my friends. I could only contact them by "Window messaging"

DJ Osiris: That could be easily brought back. Now people that are 18 and over like 40 or so could still go and complete what they failed but still, no focus no good grades. I was thinking of going to a british school but I changed my mind. I got this SAT book.......... It was bigger than a freekin dictionary maybe 3x. I got this IG book........... no lets not say it is thin because it was double it size. I'm now under big pressure. I made an "A" in my SAT but in about 2 months I have to close this computer and study for my IG. If I get an A* I will go to a british school. If I get an A I will still go but lower will only mean American schools.

Icyblue: We pressure made me get an A so I will welcome it any time pressure wants to come by and say hello.

DeMeNTed: Thats still good. Nagging is better than smacking.[/align]

[Guest KAJN]

Bump. Eh I need to see how people are doing before I go and study. I have only 3 or 4 days left :P

[JesusofChaos™]

British.

 

And i failed my A-Levels' date=' my parents couldnt give a crap:

 

But, as i said, im British, British tend to have the most uncaring parents.

My A- Levels are released on 14 August. Also British schooling is only hard because the retard kids take the attention of the teacher away, so if you are an average pupil you dont improve because you get next to nuffin 1 2 1 time with the teacher. My parents only care if i get below Cs which i never do.

Stop stealing Kevjumba's material.

[Guest KAJN]

Didn't I say that in the first post my friend?

Edited:

Disclaimer Added. I'm not bad and I said it before I even added the disclaimer.

[Tkill93]

My parents know that it's my future, and now that I'm old enough to know what I'm doing they don't care what I get as long as I'm passing.

[Lazer Yoshi]

My parents just tell me to try my hardest! Im usually a A/B student ^_^ I feel sorry for those people who are suppossed to be advanced, it's just their way of living. :(

We are different because different countries have different ways of viewing life. Americans think free mindidly with care but not a bucket load.Americans are with the bible, a kind book that tells how to live life. But the Japenese have a different view. They just think things differently based on culture, family ways, and religious things. It's how it is, we just have to live it that way -_-

[Cyber Altair]

An A is hard to get if your british. I tried the british version of school. IGCSE is very hard. SAT is a bit easier but still hard.

XD

 

sorry but that's funny, i myself am an IGCSE student and just so you know it's the easiest thing out there...

 

i got all B's and C's and my parents didn't do anything, i'm from the middle east so in a way yes i'm an asian...

[Wyhe]

[align=left]Ok now I was talking with a friend of mine when suddenly he got beaten up by his parents. See he's not american. We're asian so I will explain a little thing.

 

Lets your Singapore:

 

"A" Means awesome' date=' "A" mean you did great.

"B" means your still doing good.

"C" means your slipping a bit but your now at the average point.

"D" means your bad, you did bad bad bad bad.

"F" sometimes just mean you fail.
