[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Groups of children of any race have equal potential at birth. Within a homogeneous racial group, some will excel, the majority will be average, and some will be below average. I do not believe race alone favors any child. However, I worked for years at Johns Hopkins University, Center for Talented Youth. Our research department, working off data from our talent search, proved the most academically talented students fell into 3 cohorts: - one third were Asian (including Indian), - one third were Jewish, and, - one third were everyone else. Genetically Asian or Jewish students are not more or less intelligent. They simply have cultural backgrounds which place a greater value on education. [/quote] How old is your data? Your info sounds dated. Like 1990's?[/quote]
