[quote=Anonymous] [/quote] Asian Americans were not slaves, but experienced everything else and were also subject to concentration camps during WWII. [/quote] No, only Japanese were persecuted. It looks like the hardship only made them more motivated to be high stats and aspire to get into ivies, look at the % of kids with top SAT scores. It's a cultural difference, the parents push these kids from early on, tutoring, ECs, making them responsible for the success of the whole family. They are not smarter than any other race, they are just harder-working. The others say "you don't have to work harder, just smarter". I don't know which one is better. In the end, only having a fun secure job, enough money for a house, a car and a vacation should be enough. I think they work that hard not because they like it that much but because they are insecure.[/quote]
