From what I understand the Japanese education system and grading scale is much more harsh than it is in the United States. Students have to study harder and "just passing" isn't good enough. Grades seem to be taken very seriously in general.

I'm somewhat glad I live in the U.S. because I could have probably never made it through a Japanese school.
