[quote=Anonymous]Different things for different families -- my Indian family was much like the PP described and certainly would not be ok with an urban planning major or a music conservatory; I vividly remember laughter when an Indian kid said he was going to a liberal arts college (yes -- I thought that was rude). And when you got a bad grade, it wasn't really about whether you put in your best effort or how to improve -- rather it was -- you must improve so that this grade is an A by the end of the semester/yr. I don't know that anyone cared if I really understood Shakespeare or not, as long as I got an A.[/quote]
