Who has atar expectations which they dont think are attainable? (2 Viewers)

[Some Vunt]

At this point I don't care just want it to be overrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Ikr. So over everything.

Found out today, my dad expects *cough* and threatened*cough* me to get no less than 97+ because he knows what IQ I have (he makes me get tested once every two years by a psych) and because noone in my family has gotten below mid 90's yet

In forsight I'm partly to blame as I've done nothing but fuel his dream throughout the year, by bringing home all the good assessments and none of the bad ones/ hiding my report cards...

The day the Atar's come out, don't be suprised if you see a report of an 18 year old girl brutally murdered by their dad on their news

I will greatly fulfil the expectations of my future employers and be the best garbageman you eva seen bro (Y)

Me: guess what mum
Mum: what? what???

Mum: 94 !!!! where did the other 6 go??

Oh I am, I realised the only point of the atar is too get into uni, sorta making every mark you get above the requirement a waste.
And since my course req. is 83 I'm pretty chilled.

I'm only worried because he's an irrational arsehole and a lawyer (so he's good at passive agressive verbal abuse) and I can imagine he'll stop talking to me for at least a week if (and when) I get below 90 because I'm so cbf about it all.

lol well i'm sure our parents will be happy when they see the final results. Besides it's probably them trying to motivate us to do better (I hope lol) which fails.

My mom wants me to drop out and become an actor.

yeah it kind of is, it's like reverse motivation which doesn't really work hahaha

LOL, your parents sound asian no offense :|

My dad would always say the same thing! if not worse.. i'd get 100% and they'd still complain.

actually my parents are Egyptian and if I get 100% they will actually say congrats but then do that in everything else

 

[b3kh1t]

oh and no offence taken =D

 

[MichelleV]

I think my parents would be happy if I got over 80.
I'd be ecstatic if I got over 90 though.
I probably won't, but I can dream, eh?

 

[musing]

Hahahah my parents think I can't even get over 90.
