<p>If I got a B in any class my SK parents sit me down for AT LEAST an hour. More likely two. And then some crazy punishment.</p>

<p>My indian parents are the same way. I got a 89 in biology last year, which was due to my procrastination of studying, and my parents yelled at me the whole night and hit me with a hanger a couple times. They tried to take my phone away but they ended up forgetting about it a week later. Luckily it doesn’t count to my GPA since it was 8th grade. Sucks with the grounding and sports though. You could tell them that you can get scholarships through the sports, that usually helps with Asian parents. </p>
<p>Holy crap, just reading this thread I just felt so bad. My parents are Hispanic (Colombian) and I am the person who will get more furious over a B+ than they will. I’ve never had a B on a semester grade yet but I have had a few in Spanish and English during progress reports. My eldest brother had a bad case of senioritis and ended up getting a D in his first semester of AP Physics B, dropped out the class second semester and had all B’s and 1 C on a purely elective schedule. Parents didn’t do anything. </p>
<p>You have no idea how lucky you are. If I got under an A in anything…</p>
<p>Asianity. You have the same avatar as @swaggyc</p>
<p>The lowest grade that I got was a B- in financial literacy, but that was a summer class so I screwed around in it… The lowest actual grade was a B in English in 9th grade… F you Thurnau</p>
<p>There’s a rant thread. I suggest utilizing it.</p>
<p>Weird. Cuz your username’s different.</p>
<p>Well hello then.</p>
<p>But on that note, whatever grades you get might be dependent on how hard your school is in general in terms of grading.</p>
<p>There are people who aren’t in the top 10-15% in my school, had meh ECs (no national awards or anything like that), and it isnt uncommon for them to go to good colleges, like NYU, Tufts, Carnegie Mellon, Boston College. </p>
