Either the exams are multiple choice or extremely easy

@SW-User I mean in Korea, since the grading is that strict

@lookingForLostFriendHere Nope. Nothing easy and mostly essays once you get into junior high. You be happy to have multiple choice.

Also, exams a few times a year and before you graduate high school, you have a university entrance exam. Neither are easy.
@SW-User well then the marking must be lenient otherwise no one would get an A. Although Koreans do tell me that their society is a pressure cooker in terms of searching for success

@lookingForLostFriendHere hahaha No leniency hahaha We just work hard. Not much else to do when you have 16 hour school days 6 days a week.
@SW-User the most successful nations in the world don't work that hard. What are you trying to do?
SW-User
@lookingForLostFriendHere Hahaha it's the Korean school system. I'm not trying to do anything
@SW-User I mean your nation. Why is it overworking kids?
