Srlsy?[/quote]

Yes, of course.[/quote]

That would be very beneficial to the country.

To China or the U.S.?

I'm for minimizing international students.

I was assuming Asian Americans, so the U.S.[/quote]

+1. [/quote]

Why would the U.S. (or any country) only want one ethnicity in their colleges/universities?  So what if you prep exceptionally well?  Maybe U.S. colleges and universities want students who are not prepped with tutors, etc. - and that is perfectly fine. [/quote]

Does NBA only want only one race?
How do you know one is prepped or not??
Also, you are supposed to prepare for all sorts of test, exams, midterms, finals, etc. etc.
If you don't, you are irresponsible and lazy.  WTF[/quote]

Analogizing the NBA to colleges is a common talking point I see. It’s surprising that intelligent, educated people do not appear to comprehend the weakness of this comparison.

Can you elaborate?

Also, there are far fewer blacks applying to college, so more are proportionally accepted.  Not so with Asians.

In addition, you have to be able to make a proper analysis to do well in college. [/quote]

there are far fewer Asians applying to NBA
what's your logic?

[/quote]

Apples and oranges. Go ahead and apply to the NBA.

You are not following your own “logic”, so how are you expected to follow actual logic.

[/quote]

Can you elaborate?[/quote]

Elaborate on your not making sense? [/quote]

ok you can't and you don't have any logic[/quote]

You don’t argue very well. Maybe stick to numbers. [/quote]
