Asephera, thanks for playing the game! Education system in the USA OR Europe is very easy when compared to us, the Asians. We have to study a lot, and that is accompanied by immense pressure and competitive environment. Kids from India from 6th grade prepare for the JEE, and most of them are forced by their parents. We don't get to explore career options, we are only expected to become a doctor or an engineer.
I have also seen several news articles where a kid is *bus** by their parents for underperforming. I don't want to share the articles or anything like that, it's just too sad man. Hope this gets better.
