I was looking up a friend of a friend on facebook and I found she was joined to a group called 'The Asian Grading System'. Having known a few people with asian ancestry and totally insane parents, I found this absolutely hilarious, and so did all of the group's members who actually have been through it xD I thought I would share.

My school has one Asian. And she's dumber than a stump. Though I talked to an Asian kid at a math meet once, and he referred to this very chart. XD

That looks like how I've always understood the grading system.

No no no no no. It goes like this.
A+ = Expected A = Okay A- = Below average B = Fucked C = Fucked D = Fucked F = Dead

Although I personally am not under that grading system, I do know that most of the time it's very true.

Too true. I've been under that system and the expectations can be... ridiculous xD There's WAY too much stress, and everyone's told that if you're not a genius in math or science, you're basically going to be a failure in life xP
Although it's a lot worse in Japan. People kill themselves over results there I think x.x

I am not Asian, but my parent's grading system is pretty close to this. Pretty much, "A is good, A- is meh, and anything less is awful.

I think my parents were just happy I went to school and stayed at College and Uni.
We're working class; we aim pretty low in everything.
