[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any strong HS student who studies Chinese for a few years can score a 4 or 5 on AP Chinese. More than 80% of AP Chinese test takers earn 5s, the greatest percentage of any AP test. Really no need to bother with 50% Chinese immersion in ES and partial immersion in MS to get there.

Communicating in polite tones in English just isn't the strong suit of East Asian immigrants to this country. The great majority missed the Civil Rights Movement and don't understand institutionalized racism. They have many redeeming features though, particularly pragmatism, a strong work ethnic, and high levels of educational attainment as families, no matter where they start on the socioeconomic ladder.[/quote]

LOL. Well, that's a pretty forgiving explanation for "racist as fuck," which describes the unbelievable shit I've heard my first-generation Asian co-workers say (I work in medical research). To be fair, they seem to have shit to say about every other race and country, so they seem to be equal opportunity bigots. Definitely smart, hard-working and family-oriented, that is also completely true.[/quote]
