Hey. I know you're trying to be funny.

You should know I am now obligated to kick your ass.

I took Algebra I in 7th grade.
And 8th grade, but that's beside the point.

Also, for some reason, it goes Algebra I --> Geometry --> Algebra II.

Now I have to take two math classes next year so that I can take Physics in time to take AP Physics, because you need to have completed Trig to take Physics and the people who run my state are fucking idiots.

Honestly, you should be in Pre-Calc already. Most kids were in that class when I was fourteen. Those who weren't were pretty much considered idiots who wouldn't accomplish anything in life and were relentlessly taunted and mocked by students and teachers alike.

Which admittedly was not a good thing, but Indian education is serious business.

Oh, I could easily be in Calculus right now, but I've been taking easy math courses so that I can be able to have really good grades, because I don't need calculus for what I want to do with my life.

Here we merge it with Pre-Calc or AFM, which is the stupid version of Pre-Calc.

Freshmen in Pre-Calc are regarded as "the really smart people".

I remember a few American kids who had moved to India because their father was a successful businessman who- fuck it, he owned a call centre. Now shut up.

Anyway, those kids considered themselves quite smart...by American standards.

By the end of the first two months, one dropped out and demanded to be sent back to America, one had a nervous breakdown, one got the lowest grade in the class of 84%, and a teacher, myself and a few friends of mine of mine picked him up and threw him into the ocean as punishment and the last one pulled through it and got an "average" grade of 98%.

India is different than America, we don't really do that. I dislike it since some positive reinforcement is good, but our teachers just didn't consider it and I grew up in that mindset. I was rather surprised that in most of the West, teachers don't beat their students with sticks. And people in the West are surprised they still do.

Look, as much as I like the Indian educational system (the way your biased, Naxalite eyes see it), don't take offense when I tell you that your country is a shitty, shitty place.

They need to bring back the stick-beating, actually, because a stupidly large amount of my classmates are idiots.

And I'm in the "Honors" classes, which, translated to non-American, means "classes not completely full of idiots".

From a word to a word I was led to a word,
From a work to a work I was led to a work."
- Odin, Hávamál 138-141, the Poetic Edda, as translated by Dan McCoy.

I enjoy meta-humor and self-deprecation. Annoying, right?

Goodbye.
