Only people who haven't been to school in Japan feel that way.

I thought their schools were super stressful and sticklers for rules to prepare them for the shitty lives of businessmen.

I heard that place was the bomb not too long ago.

I went to school in Japan for a while. I have some pretty good stories from it. But I'm glad I was only an exchange student. Shit was hard.
Cheomesh
In what way?
Ifavouriteanimalgifs
I personally had it easy as an exchange student, but I went to a "smart school". So you had to study your asses off to just get in.

You might want to think that one through a bit more.

Yeah, highest suicide rates in the world during their exam time. Raises the entire countries average.

Could have sworn that distinction belonged to Korea but, either way, it's terrible and so sad. Maybe Korea's is general suicide rate.

No, you really don't.

It's super fucking competitive, and they literally sort you into the academic class, athletics class, and the no hope class(es).

I was actually surprised to learn that americans didn't have this. My HS classes were A to I with I being the worst students and A the best.

All tests are ranked, and displayed afterwards for the entire school to observe.

Some schools in the US need that though, to make students try.

And to make children the standard education system doesn't work for even more likely to kill themselves.

People would call it discriminatory and exclusive to the elite. Private schools exemplify this.
lraskie
Public schools where I'm from focus almost exclusively on athletics so...
namiasdf
Yes, but you aren't discriminated for not participating. Yes, football is big in America.
Winnerrules
Yeah japan's schools are over the top and fucking hard as shit. Those education degrees are like life lines in the sea.
ScottishPower
Is that why Japan is so weird?
Winnerrules
Japan is "weird" because of folklore stories and historal jokes and references to their culture.

Wat about tentacles n mens obsession with young school girls? And masks? And those sex pillows

My father says the colleges are more relaxed and well structured than in America though

My English professor taught in Japan and said that nobody does anything and he was told not to fail anyone. It's basically a free degree.1/2

That being said getting in is hard as fuck. That's why high school is so hard.
pdFarmD
"Told not to fail anyone"? How? Like scaled percentages and then use standard deviations to grade A,B,C,D?
pdFarmD
Or told not to fail anyone even if they fail or don't do work?
