Shanghai High School International Division=SHSID=Study Here, Sleep Is Deprived
One of the most prestigious schools in Shanghai.
Positives: The school is ginormous, the facilities are top-notch (ice rink, anyone?), and you can choose from up to 20 sports for PE. The IB program is one of the best in China, with 10% of students getting a full score of 45. Similarly, the school pumps out Ivy League acceptances. The fact that it is more Chinese than other international schools means there's not a lot of problems with bullying and underage drinking/smoking/vaping compared to other schools.
Negatives: The school is extremely Chinese for an international school, with 90% of the population being Asian. They are also very conservative, and prefer downplaying scandals before actually addressing the problem at the roots. The students here are very stressed bc teachers don't understand that students cannot do 3 hours of math homework every night. And it's funny how little the school teaches vs how hard the tests are. Without a tutor, you're screwed.
Oh yeah, forgot the GPA deflation. And how all the previously mentioned Ivy Acceptances are often hoarded by 1 person, though the school wouldn't tell you that.
But despite all these downsides, the students have an odd pride of being there. All in all, despite all the complaining the students does about their own school (and all the fantasizing they do about SAS), they ARE proud to be there.

Adam with a 3.4 GPA: "Yeah, thanks, I guess..."

Get the Constant of Integration mug.A cheapskate school. filled with npcs. everywhere you go everywhere you turn... its either an npc or an ugly girl trynna flirt with you. they make you pay tens of thousands and can't even organize a school trip. They even make you pay extortionate amounts for food with a tiny sandwich costing $4. The school floors are green and peeling along side the orange walls. PSI is not the place you want to be. Unless you love npcs.
