Not all Asians are extremely smart.

My mother has always held high expectations of me when it comes to grades and knowledge, I’ve always been really good when it comes to testing and keeping my grades up. And when I told people that I was Asian (Filipino), they would make remarks like, “that’s why you’re so smart” and I’ve always hated it. That, and I’m not as smart as everyone says.
