>In China students work very hard because they had to beat a tough competion to even be able to attend the University
This is an unfair comparison. The equivalent of those chinese students do work as hard in America - they just wouldn't be found at OP's school, there would be in a Tier 1 school.
Hint: in China, university admissions is based in large part on students's performance on the 高考, a national entrance exam, taken at the end of high school.
