So I'm one of those stupid Asians with like C's. I study and I have ever missed one homework assignment. The tests are killing me. I don't even know why I'm getting C's. What gives. I used to take harder classes and did fine but now I'm in much easier classes and I'm doing way worse. Why is this? How do I improve? I have never had anything below a C in my class in my life but i get close to it.

First of all, you're NOT stupid.
Maybe you could hire a tutor, or talk to your parents about it. You could also be stressed out, or worried about something. If that happens, you might not get good grades like you usually do. I agree with thwaks, too. You could just be bored.
Look at your notes. Do you take good notes? Can you read your handwriting? Are they written in order? Is English your first language? Note cards are very good, especially if you are studying for a test.
Learning wisdom is far more important than grades. :)
Good luck!

Try to get some books on test taking skills. Or, try to study ahead of the teacher. Make outlines of the chapters for the tests, quizzes. Basically, don't be nervous and relax while taking tests.

You might just be bored in the class. A lot of times when someone smart takes an easy class, they have a hard time with it just because they get bored. Try harder classes.

Could be such a thing as trying too hard. Maybe the teacher(s) is straying off subject between the book and their amount of liberal indoctrination in college. (which is bad for you students which means you don't get a proper education). Is the teacher boring you?
Is something distracting you? like the opposite sex? sports?
(Shhh! You haven't been getting high have you?)

Sounds like you're in a new educational environment...
Check yourself..What's distracting you ? Focus on your studies..the students around you are probably struggling too, but get this, the first thing you must do is stop eating yourself up ,you are not a stupid Asian or anything else.......words have power..If you continue to speak negativly about yourself or anything else , that's what becomes of it........FOCUS....

Talk to your teacher to find out what you are lacking. Some teachers will help directly or they can focus on your deficiencies to guide you with a tutor. If extra-credit work is available take it.
