[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, IMP part of the problem lies in how certain careers are compensated vs. others. Why should a bond trader or hedge funder ever make more than an engineer or astrophysicist? They shouldn't but they DO. The Ivys have always been "humanities" "liberal arts" schools, where a history degree can get you a job at Goldman Sachs. Why? Because if everything posted in this thread: prestige, connections, generational money. Unfortunately, we are losing stem talent to Wall Street..START PAYING STEM and the stem schools would be as "prestigious" as the Ivy League. Are Asians better at stem? I think on some level, not sure if it's [b]genetic predisposition [/b]or cultural but they do score higher on STEM based standardized tests. Spoiled white kids skate taking easier classes and then land the big $$ job, that is really what's going on here. [/quote]

It’s definitely NOT biological.  To even suggest it is irresponsible.  Let’s not spread misinformation where there is no peer reviewed scientific study to back up such a suggestion.  [/quote]
