I didn't struggle too much, but I hate that too. It always comes off as cruel, and tbh, I wonder if the problem isn't with the teachers in some cases... either way, berating them as "stupid" is hardly going to improve the situation.

Then again, Japan is not known for having a particularly kindly school system. They also do that thing where they post everybody's grades on exams in a public ranking, so everybody can see exactly where they are in relation to everybody else, and that always horrified me.

My school used to post everyone's semster GPAs in the main hallway. I hated it. They would also have an awards show with a raffle for everyone who had a 3.5 or higher, but only the 4.0 students got raffle tickets and boxes of snacks with their certificates while everyone else clapped for them. I'm sure the administration thought it was a great way to motivate us so we'd do better next year, but it always just made me feel crappy. I couldn't opt out of attending either, so I'd do my homework instead.

Oh noooo that sucks.
I agree with you, I don't think it's the best motivation...
