^That is one of the things I honestly dislike the most. I don't get why we stereotype for almost everything in this world. I could hit almost every section of stereotyping but I'm just hitting the stereotyping regarding studies and the comments my teachers make on it.
1. I'm a Science student and naturally, everyone thinks I have an IQ of 100000^infinity and hence, I am to know every answer in the world (I'm exaggerating, ofcourse, but you get the point).
2. I don't understand why my teachers think Commerce students are dumb and that that is the reason why they didn't choose Science.
3. I personally think that Accountancy is fun with all the numbers, even though I have no idea what people do in the Accountancy field (contradicts the first point).
4. A few of the smartest people in my batch chose Commerce (contradicts the second point).
5. I don't get why few of my teachers make sarcastic comments over the Commerce batch in my class, the Science batch. If they have so much hatred/ whatever over them, why don't they ask the Board to make our school just a school for Science students?
6. The teachers, them being our "idols", make us hear their 'wonderful' comments over the Commerce batch. Loving the irony. Then, they tell us to treat everyone and everything equally.
7. Just because I'm a Science student, I won't become only a doctor or an engineer. I have thousands of options. I only chose Science because my school doesn't have an Art/ Humanities stream and the Commerce stream won't come in handy for what I wish to be. And I thought the teachers were the ones who asked us to "look outside the fence of your mind".
I'm not being negative against my teachers and nor do I have some personal vendetta against them. I respect my teachers and I also know in what aspect. It's just that it's annoying how teachers think they happen to be right every time and we are at wrong. They need to understand that everyone can make mistakes, whether they be a teacher or not. Considering the stereotyping, even if indirectly, they are at wrong. It's funny how a fifteen year old like me realizes that and they don't.
