FACT British education system is the hardest on the planet: you do nothing but exams and these are external regional exams not some internal school shit,

I highly doubt that.

At least you could have fights on the roof and no one would know,i doubt they'd get out of hand,
unlike british high school (my high school) were everyone gathers on the field when there's a fight and creates some big ass crowd, as if the teachers won't know that somethings up,or the fact that the police have to come into school and break up some inter school gang war (from a spectators point of view it was entertaining)

yes i went to a tough school, and it mad me hard as nails, but after my final year of secondary school (year11 /11th grade, junior year for you guys who are familiar with the american edcation system) i left and went to more peaceful school (sixth form to be exact which is to you guys the final 2 years of high school in other countries) which had a record of high achievement results made me became soft, if i had gone to japanese high school maybe my experiences of school may have been better

ps. Im 17, 18 soon and in my proper final/senior year of school, im addicted to high school anime cause for me it creates an alternate dillusion of how school should be
reality is cruel

FACT British education system is the hardest on the planet: you do nothing but exams and these are external regional exams not some internal school shit, and our system to get into university: UCAS is even harder (theres no way for rich kids to bribe their way in), compared to England, the Japanese education system seems a breeze

Cool story bro!

I think they are put into alot of pressure to perform well, and they have a lot of rules and customs, not that that is a bad thing Maybe our highschools need that to keep kids on the right path

edit: I went to a mixed-gender highschool

Well, i would like to try High School in any other country just for the experience....
I answered yes but i think what you said is correct

This first paragraph already makes me not want to go.
