Actually there are more students sleeping in dorms than those going back home. ( I hardly went home in my high school as there are 64km from my home to school 😂)
@@谢顶浪 I can't imagine practically moving out of one's parent's house at such a young age. Here in Bulgaria out school starts at 7:30 in the morning but it's over at 1:30 in the afternoon. I don't think there was a single student who lived in a dormitory. Still, it's cool that by the time you go to University you guys are already prepared to live independently from your parents. I recently moved out for University and i feel like a headless chicken because i don't know how anything works.
ja…exactly,in the three years of my highschool,I feel i didn't see my parents for a long time,missed many things,everyday just studying. But everything is a double-eaged sword,now I am studying for a master's degree in Germany. Thinking back to my school days, I still feel that the high school life is the most fulfilling and most meaningful.
The real purpose of long school hours is to alienate children from parents, so it is easier for children to turn parents in to the police, and live in an orphanage dorm, their day will not change!
@@karlaruiz8685 hmm... I guess it's a cultural difference? Or because you haven't tried it? When you spend this much time with the same people they either become your nemesis or your family, that's how I typically feel anyways.
I’m from China and once experienced high school life. When I saw this video, I couldn’t stop crying because it was just so exhausting and overwhelming. I felt heartbroken for my past self and for the high school students now. The pressure is immense-they can’t eat well or sleep well. Even one or two years after graduating from high school, I would often wake up from nightmares, dreaming that I was back in high school and had to start preparing my study plan all over again.
Its normal and common for some asians, i'm a high school student here in the Philippines and our school time is 12 hours, sometimes its 13 hours if we have a school activity.
@@kev-dm5388 china dont really have a general religion,we dont believe in god or stuff like that.So church?nope. and id like to say,people r not that fragile,we dont get depressed so easily,even though i experienced all that time,i feel good right now,so as most of the students in china.
I think it’s just a different way of viewing growth and development. Eastern culture provides society with the job of disciplining and teaching people by shaming, which pushes people to grow, whereas western culture is more of become who you want to be and screw everyone else who disagrees with you. Both are not very healthy and kinda toxic, but both support the core of civilization
thats really reminds me of my junior high,my friend transfer to another school.for a long time I feel too loney and desperate under this high study pressure.
Pirate Undercover I don’t think so. As a human of course better to have friends. But in many Chinese schools, you are just too busy to keep making friends
Actually you'll be fine without friends... there's not that much time for friends anyways, you would be too concerned and occupied with work and worried about your grades. But most make friends just fine ahaha
In fact, many students have lived in school dormitories since primary school. When I was in high school, I lived in school, and only one day or half a day a week was at home
@@aaronji4867 Because everything in China is nationalized, meaning everything is controlled by the government. Though judging by your name I can see why you're acting so defensive lol
I'm from China, and I can tell you how tired when I was a senior high school student! I have to get up early at 6 am and wash my teeth,face and having breakfast only in half hour.Then I go to school before 6:40 and recite Chinese poems, English words,biology and so on.Then I have five class forenoon and four class afternoon, although we can have a break time between two class but teacher may have to use that time.At night, we have many homeworks and finish it always in 11pm, so if in China you may be very very tired and have no time to relax,even in weekend you have class
@@willwill7527 in my school (boarding school in Malaysia), phones are not even allowed and we only went overnight like once a month. We speak to our parents using public phone
@@willwill7527 In China I've heard about parents who have rented out small rooms for their children to be able to study a bit more during exam session (skipping one hour commute).
I am a Chinese student who has just graduated from high school. Chinese students are under a lot of pressure to study, especially in the third year of high school. Before dawn, the school required us to get up and go to the classroom to read early, so we usually had to get out of bed at 5:30 in the morning, otherwise we would be late (if we were late, we would be reprimanded by the class teacher). There are four classes in the morning and four classes in the afternoon, each class is forty-five minutes, and the break between classes is only ten minutes. I would even be late for tuba class during such a short recess! What’s even more outrageous is that the school leaders actually asked us not to make loud noises or get together to play during class breaks! They asked us to sit in our seats and prepare the books for the next class. There is only half an hour for lunch, and one hour for dinner, but there are many students, and it often takes half the time to queue up for lunch. So some students choose to skip meals or just eat snacks that don't fill their stomachs at all. We also need to study in the evening. The teacher assigns us a lot of homework every day, so we often can’t finish writing in one night, so we have to get up early the next morning to make up homework, or be criticized by the teacher in class!
This is extreme, may i ask about the university exam? i heard it is very hard, what about university life? is university life is this extreme for you as well?
@@eylulsolmaz357 I've been studying at the university for two years now, and the biggest thing I've learned in college is that the academic pressure is a lot easier than in high school. Teachers don't assign a lot of homework, and basically, if you do it carefully, you can finish it in an hour or so. Students are also free to do whatever they are interested in after class. Of course, the end of the semester is the busiest time of the semester, and we are usually so busy with revision that we don't have time to have fun. But what I have mentioned above are only the more common universities. Students from universities like Zhejiang University, which is one of the best universities in mainland China, are under very heavy academic pressure. Many of my high school classmates who are currently studying at Zhejiang University told me that although they have time to do free activities, they have a lot of homework and are often required to do experiments. Besides, as we are approaching graduation, more and more students will worry about their future, so choosing whether to go to graduate school or civil service or to graduate directly becomes a difficult problem for us. Students in this period often suffer from various diseases or even depression due to intense study. The above is my own experience and feelings, I also will soon face this cruel choice, I hope everything will go well.
My entire family is Chinese, and I’m the only person to grow up somewhere outside China, and I used to think the way my parents described school to be an exaggeration...😭😭
I did not enjoy school but I cherish the memories. The good the bad. At least I felt I’ve accomplished something in Chinese school, since the school forces you to do extra things. In US school, since you have the choice, I tend to not push myself.
Yes same!! I grew up in America and I loved to china for a year and it was very hard to adapt, I was also very tired since In had loads of homework even thought our school had the least homework and my sports were very very intense as well as the teachers and coaches but I don’t regret experiencing a different way not living I’ve never really seen before!
Highschool in Indonesia is very different. Flag raising ceremony on every Monday, about 40 minutes. Usually around 5 or 6 subjects (Not counting unique subjects like Native Speaking (I'm in a private type of school)) and on Fridays we go home early at 11:20AM because of Friday Prayers. Monday to Thursday we all go home at 3PM. I don't think I'd even last a semester in such a brutal schedule. EDIT: Since there's a few questions in replies even though they've been answered, I will answer as well accompanied with some clarifications. - School on Saturday? Nope. At least for the school I'm attending. Some schools here do Saturday, but most of them don't and the ones that do are typically private schools. As far as I know, public schools don't do Saturday as a school day. - 11:20?! Yes. It is a bit wild, but some schools continue studying until a different time after Friday Prayers. Though I must say that I've been lucky in this regard. All of the schools I attended have us going home before prayers, which is good. And for clarifications, I made this post during 10th Grade, I am now currently 11th Grade. This is in Indonesia, as one of the replies to this comment said. The school I'm attending is quite prestigious, and it IS a private school in a sense, but the school does have a religious ethic.
When I went back to China to visit my extended family, they still had school (probably because holiday for me and them weren’t timed together) and I remember this one time, I was about to go to bed at like 5am and she was getting ready for school. I was confused why she was getting up at 5 and she was confused why I was going to sleep at 5. edit bc ppl keep replying: i know going to sleep at 5 isn’t normal and it’s not something i do normally; i’m confused why i went to sleep at 5 as well but whatever happens during the holidays stays in the holidays
It’s funny to see the similarities (stand up for teacher, memorizing poetry, eating outside, asking question to a student) and differences (nap time, very symetrical PE, dinner at 6PM, finishing at 9PM) with my homecountry France
I’m Japanese 🇯🇵 and lived in China until middle school, cuz my father’s work .Tbh , I still remember that time studying with my Chinese classmates , it’s wonderful,we were so happy in the class. Now I live in Japan,but I still have connections with my Chinese friends,and I think they r very humorous www
I’ve been used to study and live in China until 12 year’s old I’ve been moved to Australia and became a citizen, now living in Sydney. My life in there was not that brutal as the video had represented but I can prove that this video was never being over-exaggerated. The memories of these days been as mostly the same as a criminal still kicks in when I watching this video although happened 6 years ago for me.
Elementary school is different and nowhere near as brutal as high school. In elementary school, kids generally start school at 8am or 8:30am and end at 4:30pm or so, with a 2-hour lunch break during which many students go home. They can usually do homework on their own time and have time after school and on weekends to pursue extracurricular activities. In high school, on the other hand, all of my cousins have stated they have to be at school by 7am and don't leave until 10pm, and their lunch breaks are shorter as well. Not many students have time to pursue extracurriculars apart from a weekend English class or something. Even during breaks, they're usually stuffed with homework and classes that are technically not allowed to take place but no teacher ever actually abides by the rule because they'll be highly criticized and/or get in trouble for doing so.
@@isaacbai7649 Hi Mr. Brainfart, there’s nowhere in my comment said that my primary school finish in 9:30. If you have any problem with the original video by uploader please go ahead but not complaints in here. Tysm

@@amine2432 1.4 billion ppl, so just imagine the compétition, and that's also one of the reason China develops, I have to say that is too much for sure, but we dont have a choice
LOL,not a chance. I'm from China , there's no detention in a Chinese high school.If you had some bad behavior at school, the teacher would just call your parents and talk about it.And if you've done some real bad things,your parents would be asked to visit your teacher and have a face-to-face talk about your problem.Which means:You are in trouble.
I worked at Chinese schools and the first time I saw morning exercises I thought it was the strangest thing. But I grew to love and see true value in it.
@@Arz2003 you think chinese schools have safe spaces like we do? perhaps drag queen story time? us americans are SO progressive! we are going to social justice ourselves under chinese communist rule in no time
Oh my god, high school in Italy is much different! We start lessons at 8.00 a.m. and we always have 6 hour-long lessons. Questions to random students are pretty common, but the amount of interaction between the teacher and the students depends both on the subject and on the teacher themselves. We have both written tests and oral tests. There are little to none extracurricular activities; most students do them on their own. I personally participate in a video-making class between 2.30-4.30 p.m. every Thursday, but it's only me and 10 other students, compared to the almost 500 total students of my school. I feel like Italian school is not easy, but it's definitely much less involved than Asian ones (or so I read from the comments!). We do get a lot of homework and we do most of the studying and memorising at home though.
Lol I'm italian and can say that happily I go to polish schools because all of my elementary friends tell me they have school on Saturdays I got longer hours yes... But I got 2 free days
This is not just a Chinese thing I guess. It happens in Europe as well. Depending on the course, sometimes you have two back to back classes(Social Sciences) or they are spread out as morning and afternoon(Maths and Sciences)
Lol, in a French High School and we have 2 French lessons back to back followed by 2 Maths and 2 French again: Most of our days have scrambled schedules like the one in the vid asw
They assigned the physics and maths teachers to "teach" the lessons that are just basically government propoganda and just have us study maths and Physics instead.
Kinda sad. They are so use to this but almost like slavery just constant study. I get it you need better qualifications to achieve better jobs but someday these students will come to realise that everything they are doing is just for government satisfaction ad its more like a competition to beat other country education.
This is more like “everyone is doing this, everyone should be doing this, this is just how the world works “ rather than “discipline”😂. Most Chinese teenagers get use to this, while they might be much happier if their life is not like this, they wouldn’t know! Hence, this is just an ordinary life for them, that’s all
@@eunwoo922 No. Obviously you didnt take high school in China. Only top high school is from 8 am to 5 pm Mon to Fri. 90% high schools are like this from 6 am to 9 pm Mon to Sat. My high school was 10 pm. Also, there are about 10% garbage high school has no night learning session because they do not expect their students can pass the Gaokao to get into college so they give up the night learning time. Daytime classes can already ensure they get into community college equivalency.
In the UAE (I am an immigrant from India btw) school starts at 7:45 (bus timings depend on where you live) we have something known as a ‘zero period’ which is basically ‘homeroom period’ in the US, this is a time for class teachers to check on the progress of their students, assemblies and announcements are also made during this period in some days as well as study sessions during exam time. Then there are 4 periods that happen continuously each for 40 minutes until break time, which is around 30 mins, students can have lunch, play outside, or just socialize and roam around the campus. Then 4 more periods go by, each for 40 mins until school is over (around 2:00 to 3:00). In the UAE, we have a fixed timetable schedule that is constant and never changes until the start of a new term (semester). We also have half-day schedule on Fridays, meaning there are only 4 periods on that day (In Sharjah students are luckier cuz they get Friday completely off!), Saturdays and Sundays are also a part of the weekend.
They're in school longer than I'm at work. That's the worst. If I'm gonna be stuck somewhere every day from 7am-9pm, there's gotta be something more for me at the end of the line.
@陶陶 Man people have proven that even without school you can make it and make it big too. Humanity doesn't always need people that know a textbook word by word. They need ideas,inventions problem solvers and many more... and by the way if you didn't have a personnel in the factories working on it. Then a city can't "run" at it's full potential everything that we eat,wear and drink comes from factories or the farms so have some fucking respect for those guys. If it wasn't for the industrial revolution there wouldn't this shithole called RUclips or any other efficient machinery
@@havanascp9602 If you think spending your whole day at school makes you smart. You need to reevaluate your points in life. Life ain't always about school as i said on the others guy comment people don't always need people that know a book word by word they need ideas and problem solvers and all this comes from experiences you had in your life. A lot of college drops out have made the big bucks and had great ideas this ain't the 70s its 2019 and 2020 in less than a month the world has changed and so needs to change the schooling system. My country has some of the best universities in the world and has the roots for the democracy that most of the countries are using as a political system now. You would think that life here is perfect but most of the and not say all of the students that finished University here are jobless. Ideas and mostly robotics are the future
@陶陶 Yeah that's true but the only thing I'm trying to prove is that you don't always need a certificate that tells people that you finished your studies at this school for that thing. I believe you know what i mean
Actually there is, but it isn’t that loud, I don’t know if this applies to every school but where I went to it was like a short clip of music that signified classes beginning and classes ending
@@PichuHasStems Yes, my high school didn't end until 10:30pm9: It's early in China to end at 9:00pm.So we always say ,we never want to experience high school life again.
@Everything I think you are right. In China, People could be rude and loud. In US, they just shoot each other dead on a daily basis. I guess We all rather be dead than emotionally disturbed , right? These kinds of proud American sentiments are difficult for Chinese to comprehend, too. Every country obviously has its own problems, but whose are more serious? If you think China, then I say let's fire away...Go.
Bro I get 4 to 5 hours of sleep on school days and don't consume caffein. And I am very active and have loads of energy. I only sleep that much at weekends
@@Mark-ww1vf No like, you genuinely actually do need 8 hours of sleep for growth and normal functioning.. it's called the REM cycle.

Well I'm here watching two Korean students arguing about their own schools lol. Actually there're different schools in every nations. That video just shows one of the possibilities and I'm from another Chinese school which doesn't look like this😂
In China, there are even more extreme high schools, such as mine. The school's closed management does not allow students to go out, and electronic devices are also prohibited. Carrying mobile phones will result in dismissal, and male and female students cannot sit next to each other. If students fall in love, they will also be expelled. Students live in collective dormitories. Every morning at 5:30, the bell rings and the first class starts at 5:55. At 10:30 pm, the last class ends, and you must go to bed before 11 pm. There are fourteen classes with a duration of no less than 45 minutes per day, which is basically the same every day. After studying continuously for three weeks, students will take a two-day break and go home to rest.
The students movement in my school is proportional to how close the teacher are to the student lol. Basically the farthest one behind are just standing doing nothing if there's no teacher there.
We had that too in Central Europe but only in winter. Where the sun didn't rise before 8 am and started to go down at 4 pm.... So... We usually walked in the dark to the bus and home again also in the dark. Not everyday though.
@@ChaoticGamer5967 Might be a stressful schedule for you, but chinese students are already used to this schedule. Plus the students only focus on studying and nothing else.
@@CHIOTIS1821 You can nowadays with internet. You absolutely cannot learn everything at school that's for sure. Do they have an electronic lab? Do they have computers with programming and debugging tools installed? No. Nothing at tall. In the west, at 19 years of age, a guy already did neural network based FPS cheater detection. I also know a bulgarian guy who hacked Denuvo at 19 years.
@@howardlam6181 For some this might be the case. But I cannot get anything done at home so I rather go to school and think that now that Im here why not just study like everyone else.

@@barrackobama6153 what type of school has a full two hours of break? Mine only has 30 minutes and we're not allowed to leave. I actually like this Chinese system. Seems calm and relaxed
Well we have don't have a cafateria so we get a 1 and a half hour break but it takes me at least half an hoir to get home, and we only have a 10 minut break throughout the whole day
As a Chinese student, we have to give up music, art and sports to keep learning knowledge to meet the exam. In order to be admitted to a better university, and to go out of the mountains to change fate.
imagine being an International Student, entering a Chinese/South Korea school, where hours of studying and schooling is common, i’m pretty sure we’ll all be dead before the second day starts ✋😭
That's how you raise soulless masses. They steal patents of the western civilization at the end of the day so it doesn't matter how many hours of studying they force on their youth, its mundane
Most likely they'll be from another Asian country then, so it wouldn't be a massive issue. Although in general it's a lot more common to go to Western countries for international study, and I guess it's a massive advantage when the work is much easier.
@@KevNotFit and they can. During their passing time, recess, and before and after school. Nothing can get done in a classroom because kids "just being kids" in the US. You try getting a classroom of 30 quiet and paying attention and expect them to learn something. I'm getting kids in my senior class who barely write at a 4th grade level because of that crap
@@solinvictus4367 I just recently graduated from highschool in America and ive never seen a teacher have a problem with students listening unless they were a pushover. This is just what ive seen and experienced in the public education system so this is anecdotal, but I still dont see the problem with students talking while doing their work if the teacher is done with their lecture.
The quietness in the classroom is something I wish schools had in Australia, I stayed back after school all the time to get work done. I don’t think I would want to stay as late as some of these kids do but staying to like 5:00 or later in exam prep is normal. Also being allowed to go get food from outside school is awesome. Still I don’t think I would survive one school year in china
@Captain Criticizing from teachers, parents and others. Meanwhile, College entrance examination fucked us up, cuz this exam somehow decides our future in China, and it is also the reasons why students in high schools ONLY focus on study (no music, no art, no sports, no entertainment). Like schools cancelled sports classes for math classes. The most suffering time and meaningless days of my entire life. At that time, Classmates are like inmates, so we have strong friendship connections.
@Enrico yea, but rare, they hope you 100% focus on study too tho...... We spent most of time on studying and homework, no more time for anything else even hospitalization.
Singapore: Teacher says hello and everyone must reply if not you’ll remain standing until u greet or else u stand outside and wait till the discipline master walks past and asks u why you’re standing outside
oh i c Ofc I do. My literature & math cher also say that u have to greet loudly if not greet again like wth? Say what first period in the morning the greeting must be loud and clear.
At my school the teacher yells “Bonjour tous le monde” and we have to respond with “Salut/bonjour mme/mr” or we aren’t continuing since they’ll repeat it
I taught in China for 6 years. That classroom looks so small and cramped! Most of the classrooms that I saw were pretty big. And there's one thing that is not in this video: EYE EXERCISES WITH RELAXING MUSIC COMING OVER THE LOUDSPEAKER!
Those eye exercises were actually so relaxing. I attended grade school in China for a year and I looked forward to those exercises, even do them now when I get eye strain from screen time.
Yeah at first eveyone did them,but when I got to 9th grade eveyone just slept through them.Cuz during 9th grade in China u get to sleep like 5-6hours a night or even less.
i feel so sorry for these kids. i feel like they're missing out a lot on their childhood. it was the best time of my life, and i'd want my kids to enjoy it too! get up at 6 am and come home at 10 pm... conformity..... fuck that! crime against humanity!
I am a Chinese citizen. This video really reminds me of my high school life. When I was 12 years old I studied from 7:00am to 9:00pm each day. This kind of life lasts 6 years, until I took the college entrance examination. Now I am a PhD candidate in UK.
I would prefer to remain uneducated instead of this type of school.....in India population is comparable and even i spent 12 hrs a day in tutuions for a year but it sucks...u just can't understand anything after a limit and then all you do is take notes which you never read
Kelin Li yess this is why the people in your culture are steretyped very smart. Because you have to study and learn. Which is admirable. Your not wasting time doing nothing.

😢Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.😢😢😢😢

This made me literally realize that getting up at 7:15AM and going back home at 2:25PM is nothing compared to Chinese high schools. I don't know how Chinese people can even live with that much hours of school...
ideos not everyone has such a long schedule. I have the normal 8:30-3:50 period of learning (including lunch). Remember this is grade 11-12. They are almost adults by now
This is inhumane, students have absolutely no time to form relationships with friends and be close with their family. Even if they do absolutely nothing once they arrive home and just straight to sleep they will STILL be sleep deprived. That too, most of the stuff learned is just memorization which the students will forget once they are done studying. Pretty sad.
Mohammad Farhan NEWAZ the fact that half of America doesn’t think that the virus is a threat proves that the American education system is complete shit. Furthermore, out of the 5300 universities and colleges in America, only 27 are in the top 100 universities in the world, meaning that only one out of about 183 colleges in America are in the top 100. UK on the other hand has about 130 universities, with 20 being in the top 100, meaning that out of every 6.5 universities, one is in the top 100 of the world. Another is Hong Kong, with 20 universities in total, 10 are in the top 100, meaning that 1 in every 2 universities in Hong Kong are in top 100. This proves that the general education in America is complete crap. According to research by Bloomberg, China has the potential to catch up with America in the next ten years. China also has a GDP growth of 6.6% (according to world bank), with America’s only being 2.9%, with Trump promising GDP growth of 4%, which isn’t even close to China’s GDP growth rate. A few factors for economic growth is improved technology, increased investment and increase of work force, all being factors for a country to urbanise. America on the other hand with the lower GDP growth rate, it means that there is less innovation and development in the country, leaving it a less promising future. As things change and innovative, companies like Apple won’t be able to hold on, leaving other companies to be able to catch up.
Mohammad Farhan NEWAZ also for my not very supported claims: All of the top 5 countries ranking in average iq, all of them are Asian countries (skipping past Hong Kong as they are technically not a country). All top 25 ranking countries are either from Asia or Europe (excluding Macau (as also not a country), Canada, Australia and New Zealand). America is ranked 28th with 97.6 as of 2019. For your reference, the top country, Singapore has a average iq of 107.1. With academic grades, the top 5 countries that has the most percentage of students scoring top marks are also all Asian, with Singapore at number one having 71.37%, America only has 29.84% ranking in 13. According to your logic, Singapore should have lower scores than America, but they don’t. What logic you may ask, well Singapore has zero people that ever won a Nobel prize, and America has 368 as of 2019. This shows pretty well that your logic is outdated and isn’t true, as well as the fact that America has done such a shit job at their public education that they made it hard for themselves to improve.
I am a vietnamese high school student i think i spend a lot of time on studying at school but when i watch this video i dont think i study as much as them
I'm from Germany and my school day starts at 8:00 am and ends at 3:20pm (4 subjects) or 1:20pm (3 subjects). That's about 6,5 hours less (on a 4 subject day) than in this video... The only difference, that even sets my school apart from a lot of other German schools is, that I have 1 subject for about 1,5 hours. For example: Math begins at 8am and ends at 9:30am. Then a 20 minute break and then a nother subject. This video makes me appreciate all the free time I have!
4 subjects with that long? I can't imagine those who feel bored with that subject but have to endure it for 2 hours, boredom must've really killed the motivation of these students. Keep up the hardwork!
1. the older people like to smoke a lot like the typical grandpa's usually smoke 2. the factory pollution and pollution from cars and other things are pretty strong bc of high population so.. fine dust and air pollution are common here (sorry if my English is bad)

(Philippines) In my school, we have different departments which are the Science (STE), Math (SPM), Sports (SPS), and Arts (SPA) student. The rest are the ones we call the "regular students" (ones who aren't so called "smart enough" to get into these departments). And each departments has their own designated building. Once you finish elementary, you have to take an exam (atleast in our school) to determine which department you are supposed to be in (Science being the highest department) and I fortunately got in the Science department. I get up around 5am to get ready and leave by 6:30 am, I arrive by 6:40-50 am at school. The people who clean the classroom are only my classmates who are assigned to a certain day. They clean the classroom when they arrive up until 7:30 am. •1st Period (7:30 - 8:30 am) (after the 1st period, we walk to our next class since we switch classrooms according to what our subject is) •2nd Period (8:30 - 9:30) Recess (15 mins.) •3rd Period (9:45 - 10:45 am) •4th Period (10:45 - 11:45 am) (then we walk back to our department) •Lunch (11:45 - 1pm) •5th Period (1pm - 2pm) •6th Period (2pm - 3pm) •7th Period (3pm - 4pm) •8th Period (4pm - 5pm) (this depends on our sched and our subject teachers) We also have a flag-raising ceremony every Monday for almost about an hour (we also do a morning exercise). Studying here in the Philippines is really hard specially if your a part of the higher sections/departments. People always expect a lot from you. Teachers tell us to enjoy our weekends but they forget that they give us tons of tasks that prevents us from resting. We even spend more time outside than on our own home because there are also some instances wherein we have to practice on weekends for school projects/performance tasks. I am honestly so drained and fed-up with this educational setting, imagine a G-9 student like me handling all of this? An endless cycle up until I finish high school. I rarely talk with my family members now because of always being busy with schoolworks and my parents think that I have hidden hatred towards them just because I keep quiet most of the time because I'm exhausted. And unfortunately, having a normal childhood is not a thing because instead of talking or bonding with my family, I'm in my study, doing schoolworks. I want to sometimes just neglect all my responsibilities in school and just be careless but the fear of being a failure scares me so much since here in the Philippines, you will only be deemed successful in the future if you get high grades, and straight A's in school. And I just hope my studies won't end me before I finish it.
what school even is that? Private school or something, but still id rather have that schedule than the china one, imagine going home 9:00pm-9:30pm, TF💀
nah they didn’t organise themselves they were actually BEING ORGANIZED,or let’s just say they were forced to do so .As a Chinese student I can tell you that if you don’t do so you’ll get scolded by teachers or even get kicked out of school😅
@@玖穆-g6h What you're claiming now goes against most advice by successful people. They usually get 7-8 hours of sleep and have highly optimized workflows and schedules. Sleeping less than 7 hours is not optimal. I don't know where you are coming from.
Thank you for showing school in my native country. I remember going to school on Saturdays for half a day when I was in elementary school in China. My 2 kids went/go to specialized high schools in NYC and their school schedule is almost as hectic. They wake up around 6:00 and get to school around 8:00. They don’t come back until 6:00 and they don’t finish homework until late night, sometimes early morning. We Chinese are the same everywhere we go when it comes to education and work ethics. Others think that is crazy. But to us it’s just the norm. My parents worked 13 hour days, 7 days a week, for 25 years in their restaurant. Zero vacations. Zero days off. (Except for Thanksgiving Day) And we kids went right to work right after school and still had to finish all our homework while at the restaurant. That is the culture. And we will continue to preserve it.
God, can you imagine attending a school like this with ADHD, depression, anxiety, or any other mental health issue that affects attention span and social battery? Though I do see the benefits of it for some people, and admire the students for their work ethic, this literally sounds like hell on earth Edit: How did this start a troll war in the comments LOLLL-

I felt heartbroken for my past self and for the high school students now. The pressure is immense-they can’t eat well or sleep well.

"If they don't know the answer it is considered shameful and embarrassing."
Imagine being a human being.
Ha, stupid human.
I think it’s just a different way of viewing growth and development. Eastern culture provides society with the job of disciplining and teaching people by shaming, which pushes people to grow, whereas western culture is more of become who you want to be and screw everyone else who disagrees with you. Both are not very healthy and kinda toxic, but both support the core of civilization

Fr i should not be crying about how our school is so long in reality its not . Thank you lord only 7 hours of school
I am a Chinese student who has just graduated from high school. Chinese students are under a lot of pressure to study, especially in the third year of high school. Before dawn, the school required us to get up and go to the classroom to read early, so we usually had to get out of bed at 5:30 in the morning, otherwise we would be late (if we were late, we would be reprimanded by the class teacher). There are four classes in the morning and four classes in the afternoon, each class is forty-five minutes, and the break between classes is only ten minutes. I would even be late for tuba class during such a short recess! What’s even more outrageous is that the school leaders actually asked us not to make loud noises or get together to play during class breaks! They asked us to sit in our seats and prepare the books for the next class. There is only half an hour for lunch, and one hour for dinner, but there are many students, and it often takes half the time to queue up for lunch. So some students choose to skip meals or just eat snacks that don't fill their stomachs at all. We also need to study in the evening. The teacher assigns us a lot of homework every day, so we often can’t finish writing in one night, so we have to get up early the next morning to make up homework, or be criticized by the teacher in class!
This is extreme, may i ask about the university exam? i heard it is very hard, what about university life? is university life is this extreme for you as well?
@@eylulsolmaz357 I've been studying at the university for two years now, and the biggest thing I've learned in college is that the academic pressure is a lot easier than in high school. Teachers don't assign a lot of homework, and basically, if you do it carefully, you can finish it in an hour or so. Students are also free to do whatever they are interested in after class. Of course, the end of the semester is the busiest time of the semester, and we are usually so busy with revision that we don't have time to have fun.
But what I have mentioned above are only the more common universities. Students from universities like Zhejiang University, which is one of the best universities in mainland China, are under very heavy academic pressure. Many of my high school classmates who are currently studying at Zhejiang University told me that although they have time to do free activities, they have a lot of homework and are often required to do experiments.
Besides, as we are approaching graduation, more and more students will worry about their future, so choosing whether to go to graduate school or civil service or to graduate directly becomes a difficult problem for us. Students in this period often suffer from various diseases or even depression due to intense study.
The above is my own experience and feelings, I also will soon face this cruel choice, I hope everything will go well.

Highschool in Indonesia is very different. Flag raising ceremony on every Monday, about 40 minutes. Usually around 5 or 6 subjects (Not counting unique subjects like Native Speaking (I'm in a private type of school)) and on Fridays we go home early at 11:20AM because of Friday Prayers. Monday to Thursday we all go home at 3PM. I don't think I'd even last a semester in such a brutal schedule.
EDIT: Since there's a few questions in replies even though they've been answered, I will answer as well accompanied with some clarifications.
- School on Saturday?
Nope. At least for the school I'm attending. Some schools here do Saturday, but most of them don't and the ones that do are typically private schools. As far as I know, public schools don't do Saturday as a school day.
- 11:20?!
Yes. It is a bit wild, but some schools continue studying until a different time after Friday Prayers. Though I must say that I've been lucky in this regard. All of the schools I attended have us going home before prayers, which is good.
And for clarifications, I made this post during 10th Grade, I am now currently 11th Grade. This is in Indonesia, as one of the replies to this comment said. The school I'm attending is quite prestigious, and it IS a private school in a sense, but the school does have a religious ethic.
I had flag easing in kindergarten in Hong Kong * china

Elementary school is different and nowhere near as brutal as high school. In elementary school, kids generally start school at 8am or 8:30am and end at 4:30pm or so, with a 2-hour lunch break during which many students go home. They can usually do homework on their own time and have time after school and on weekends to pursue extracurricular activities. In high school, on the other hand, all of my cousins have stated they have to be at school by 7am and don't leave until 10pm, and their lunch breaks are shorter as well. Not many students have time to pursue extracurriculars apart from a weekend English class or something. Even during breaks, they're usually stuffed with homework and classes that are technically not allowed to take place but no teacher ever actually abides by the rule because they'll be highly criticized and/or get in trouble for doing so.

Oh my god, high school in Italy is much different! We start lessons at 8.00 a.m. and we always have 6 hour-long lessons. Questions to random students are pretty common, but the amount of interaction between the teacher and the students depends both on the subject and on the teacher themselves. We have both written tests and oral tests.
There are little to none extracurricular activities; most students do them on their own. I personally participate in a video-making class between 2.30-4.30 p.m. every Thursday, but it's only me and 10 other students, compared to the almost 500 total students of my school.
I feel like Italian school is not easy, but it's definitely much less involved than Asian ones (or so I read from the comments!). We do get a lot of homework and we do most of the studying and memorising at home though.
Lol I'm italian and can say that happily I go to polish schools because all of my elementary friends tell me they have school on Saturdays I got longer hours yes... But I got 2 free days

@@eunwoo922 No. Obviously you didnt take high school in China. Only top high school is from 8 am to 5 pm Mon to Fri. 90% high schools are like this from 6 am to 9 pm Mon to Sat. My high school was 10 pm. Also, there are about 10% garbage high school has no night learning session because they do not expect their students can pass the Gaokao to get into college so they give up the night learning time. Daytime classes can already ensure they get into community college equivalency.
It was 15 hours

In the UAE (I am an immigrant from India btw) school starts at 7:45 (bus timings depend on where you live) we have something known as a ‘zero period’ which is basically ‘homeroom period’ in the US, this is a time for class teachers to check on the progress of their students, assemblies and announcements are also made during this period in some days as well as study sessions during exam time. Then there are 4 periods that happen continuously each for 40 minutes until break time, which is around 30 mins, students can have lunch, play outside, or just socialize and roam around the campus. Then 4 more periods go by, each for 40 mins until school is over (around 2:00 to 3:00).
In the UAE, we have a fixed timetable schedule that is constant and never changes until the start of a new term (semester). We also have half-day schedule on Fridays, meaning there are only 4 periods on that day (In Sharjah students are luckier cuz they get Friday completely off!), Saturdays and Sundays are also a part of the weekend.

In China, there are even more extreme high schools, such as mine. The school's closed management does not allow students to go out, and electronic devices are also prohibited. Carrying mobile phones will result in dismissal, and male and female students cannot sit next to each other. If students fall in love, they will also be expelled. Students live in collective dormitories. Every morning at 5:30, the bell rings and the first class starts at 5:55. At 10:30 pm, the last class ends, and you must go to bed before 11 pm. There are fourteen classes with a duration of no less than 45 minutes per day, which is basically the same every day. After studying continuously for three weeks, students will take a two-day break and go home to rest.

Fact is one teacher only teach one course, so teachers are more luckier than the kids I thought
The quietness in the classroom is something I wish schools had in Australia, I stayed back after school all the time to get work done.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker.

Mohammad Farhan NEWAZ you do realise that the average American iq is lower than China right?
Mohammad Farhan NEWAZ the fact that half of America doesn’t think that the virus is a threat proves that the American education system is complete shit. Furthermore, out of the 5300 universities and colleges in America, only 27 are in the top 100 universities in the world, meaning that only one out of about 183 colleges in America are in the top 100. UK on the other hand has about 130 universities, with 20 being in the top 100, meaning that out of every 6.5 universities, one is in the top 100 of the world. Another is Hong Kong, with 20 universities in total, 10 are in the top 100, meaning that 1 in every 2 universities in Hong Kong are in top 100. This proves that the general education in America is complete crap. According to research by Bloomberg, China has the potential to catch up with America in the next ten years. China also has a GDP growth of 6.6% (according to world bank), with America’s only being 2.9%, with Trump promising GDP growth of 4%, which isn’t even close to China’s GDP growth rate. A few factors for economic growth is improved technology, increased investment and increase of work force, all being factors for a country to urbanise. America on the other hand with the lower GDP growth rate, it means that there is less innovation and development in the country, leaving it a less promising future. As things change and innovative, companies like Apple won’t be able to hold on, leaving other companies to be able to catch up.
Mohammad Farhan NEWAZ also for my not very supported claims: All of the top 5 countries ranking in average iq, all of them are Asian countries (skipping past Hong Kong as they are technically not a country). All top 25 ranking countries are either from Asia or Europe (excluding Macau (as also not a country), Canada, Australia and New Zealand). America is ranked 28th with 97.6 as of 2019. For your reference, the top country, Singapore has a average iq of 107.1. With academic grades, the top 5 countries that has the most percentage of students scoring top marks are also all Asian, with Singapore at number one having 71.37%, America only has 29.84% ranking in 13. According to your logic, Singapore should have lower scores than America, but they don’t. What logic you may ask, well Singapore has zero people that ever won a Nobel prize, and America has 368 as of 2019. This shows pretty well that your logic is outdated and isn’t true, as well as the fact that America has done such a shit job at their public education that they made it hard for themselves to improve.

This city is one of the most polluted in China. Coal mines, factories...
@@sebiieex it is in asia and mainly china and india
Why the uniform looks so comfortable mine makes me sweat like hell nah.
there is a specific official certificate to ensure school student's uniform and other daily stuff must be good quality and cheap. But they are not ensure to look fashion lol. I like to wear it to exercise although i graduated years before.
My school makes us wear cotton uniform which are fucking hot and uncomfortable especially with the Filipino Heat
Ughhhh my whole country in public school we must wear white top with. Long ass skirt till your ankles and my country hot asf
ponato tata they don’t look as well as Japan’s and Korea’s cute uniforms, but they certainly feel better. Can be used for a mop when you’re done with graduation. :)
In my school we wear shirts and they are very hot, its like hell
(Philippines)
In my school, we have different departments which are the Science (STE), Math (SPM), Sports (SPS), and Arts (SPA) student. The rest are the ones we call the "regular students" (ones who aren't so called "smart enough" to get into these departments). And each departments has their own designated building. Once you finish elementary, you have to take an exam (atleast in our school) to determine which department you are supposed to be in (Science being the highest department) and I fortunately got in the Science department.
I get up around 5am to get ready and leave by 6:30 am, I arrive by 6:40-50 am at school. The people who clean the classroom are only my classmates who are assigned to a certain day. They clean the classroom when they arrive up until 7:30 am.
•1st Period (7:30 - 8:30 am) (after the 1st period, we walk to our next class since we switch classrooms according to what our subject is)
•2nd Period (8:30 - 9:30)
Recess (15 mins.)
•3rd Period (9:45 - 10:45 am)
•4th Period (10:45 - 11:45 am) (then we walk back to our department)
•Lunch (11:45 - 1pm)
•5th Period (1pm - 2pm)
•6th Period (2pm - 3pm)
•7th Period (3pm - 4pm)
•8th Period (4pm - 5pm) (this depends on our sched and our subject teachers)
We also have a flag-raising ceremony every Monday for almost about an hour (we also do a morning exercise).
Studying here in the Philippines is really hard specially if your a part of the higher sections/departments. People always expect a lot from you. Teachers tell us to enjoy our weekends but they forget that they give us tons of tasks that prevents us from resting. We even spend more time outside than on our own home because there are also some instances wherein we have to practice on weekends for school projects/performance tasks.
I am honestly so drained and fed-up with this educational setting, imagine a G-9 student like me handling all of this? An endless cycle up until I finish high school. I rarely talk with my family members now because of always being busy with schoolworks and my parents think that I have hidden hatred towards them just because I keep quiet most of the time because I'm exhausted. And unfortunately, having a normal childhood is not a thing because instead of talking or bonding with my family, I'm in my study, doing schoolworks.
I want to sometimes just neglect all my responsibilities in school and just be careless but the fear of being a failure scares me so much since here in the Philippines, you will only be deemed successful in the future if you get high grades, and straight A's in school. And I just hope my studies won't end me before I finish it.
G9 star section here, we can do this
@@cr0sad3r70 thank you and good luck :>>>
what school even is that? Private school or something, but still id rather have that schedule than the china one, imagine going home 9:00pm-9:30pm, TF💀
I’m never going to complain about school ever again.
Chinese university is heaven but high school is nightmare , but America is inverse
the fact that these kids can organize themselves so well is crazy
nah they didn’t organise themselves they were actually BEING ORGANIZED,or let’s just say they were forced to do so .As a Chinese student I can tell you that if you don’t do so you’ll get scolded by teachers or even get kicked out of school😅
I mean, they don’t really have a choice
the joys of authoritarianism my friend, complete order comes at a price

“people needs 6-7 hours of sleep everyday”
chinese highshool: not on my watch
*7-8
Actually, no one sleeps more than 7 hours when they really wanna something, wherever they are students or already work.
@@玖穆-g6h Really wanna what?
@@soyoltoi any achievement needs to pay much more than general. If we got more than 7 hours of sleep when the youth, then we lost when old.
@@玖穆-g6h What you're claiming now goes against most advice by successful people. They usually get 7-8 hours of sleep and have highly optimized workflows and schedules. Sleeping less than 7 hours is not optimal. I don't know where you are coming from.
Thank you for showing school in my native country. I remember going to school on Saturdays for half a day when I was in elementary school in China.
My 2 kids went/go to specialized high schools in NYC and their school schedule is almost as hectic.
They wake up around 6:00 and get to school around 8:00. They don’t come back until 6:00 and they don’t finish homework until late night, sometimes early morning.
We Chinese are the same everywhere we go when it comes to education and work ethics. Others think that is crazy. But to us it’s just the norm.
My parents worked 13 hour days, 7 days a week, for 25 years in their restaurant. Zero vacations. Zero days off. (Except for Thanksgiving Day) And we kids went right to work right after school and still had to finish all our homework while at the restaurant. That is the culture. And we will continue to preserve it.
Imagine having the same schedule as your crush. You’d get to spend the whole day with her
wow that's a great upside.
If distracted, your points can hardly catch up
you don't have schedules, you are in a class and you are stuck with that class for a year, the teachers come to the class
simp
but she goes to another school
Their desks are as small as humanly possible, it’s making me feel claustrophobic lol.
Honestly though me too 😭
Same
My school doesn't have desks we have arm chairs lol
They do have the largest population on earth
My legs are literally too long for mine
God, can you imagine attending a school like this with ADHD, depression, anxiety, or any other mental health issue that affects attention span and social battery? Though I do see the benefits of it for some people, and admire the students for their work ethic, this literally sounds like hell on earth
Edit:
How did this start a troll war in the comments LOLLL-
@Kama Kiriyama Tell that to science
@Kama Kiriyama I have been diagnosed with everyone and ill say, it's just a choice. I just don't want to complete a boring task, and I always regret my actions after making myself feel worse.
@Kama Kiriyama Keyword used to
@Kama Kiriyama that’s dumb comparison tho advanced science are barely wrong
@Kama Kiriyama Science changes over time, this is literally the most basic principle of proven science. Do you not know what the scientific method is? What theories are? You sound like you dropped out of middle school.
Honestly I would love to be in this kind of school: I love everything being planned and scheduled and I love how they have time for everything in a school day like having naps and also studying. Thank you for showing us what a normal school day looks for you ❤
我是中国河北人,我给你介绍一下我们的作息你就不想了
我们学校五点起床,六点早读,十二点午自习,一点半到二点休息半个小时,二点上课一直上到九点四十...
回到宿舍睡着得十一点多...
更宽松也宽松不到哪去,我们这不只是事件被安排了,甚至精神已经被安排了

Same here. I'd love to go to a school like this. I would never mind being in the vicinity of my friends for that long. I'll just have to work really really hard :")
They only sleep around 5-6 hours a day but you do you I suppose. Are you on the spectrum? This would be harder if you have an illness.
