I dunno, though. My mother is a typical Asian mother too, but I turned out okay. I failed a subject or two during the test exams too, but considering I got A1 or A2 for those subjects in the actual SPM, I figure the school results weren't indicative. I was, admittedly, very nervous about the results, since I was applying to college with them. I actually made it very clear in my applications that these were only mock exams and that I would be sending my real results in as soon as they arrived. And I also studied my butt off voluntarily--my mother didn't have to do a thing. (I was the one asking for tuition and enrolling in extra subjects voluntarily...)
no subject
