if I hear my parents say "Harvard" one more time, I'm gonna have to stab something.

Who else goes through this every day? Having their parents yell at them for B's?

My parents don't yell at me per se, but they "encourage" me. (Pfft.)
"Honey, you did well, but why'd your grade in English go down? It was a B+ last time, it's a B- this time. And what happened to Science? Good job, but better luck next time."
I either A) glare at them until they finally get it; B) brush it off because I know I'm working hard or C) give them my planner and kindly ask them to do every single piece of homework listed in there by tomorrow.
That may or may not work for you depending on how strict your parents are, but it works on mine. =/

Have you watched the Asian Parents video on YouTube?
Is that kinda what you are referring to?
Even though I have "asian" parents, they don't overreact.
They just want to know that I tried my best.
