SPECIFICALLY to spite you by making you look bad by comparison, that's why.

You must not be asian, so I'll go really really really really slowly so that you can understand.

SAY, randomly and without any factual basis that 1/10 people excel at math.

SAY that there are 100 non-asians and 1000 asians. It is a fact there are more asians than any other race, mostly thanks to china.

Now. If 1/10 people excel at math and you have 100 people. That's 10 people excelling at math in your non-asian group.

Now. If 1/10 people excel at math and you have 1000 people. That's 100 people excelling at math in your asian group.

100 is a bigger number than 10, I'm assuming I don't have to explain why.

This was a completely unbased random example so now I'll go into a general sense.

There are MORE asians than any other particular race.

So just use whatever statistic there is for excelling at math, whatever it may be.

Because there are MORE asians they are MORE likely to have MORE people who are good at math.

If you use simple statistics.

I don't know how the fuck you understood 'since you're not asian, you must suck at math'. Or didn't understand that in the first post, but HEY.

And then you have the fact that Asian people aren't native to places outside of America, so the Asians you see will be the one's intelligent and well-off enough to leave their shit-hole of a continent. And because of that, their parents will push them harder to do well, because they want their kids to make the most of their potential.
The stupid azns are stil aza.

You know what you wanna do with that, right? You wanna put a banging donk on it!

But that wasn't your question.

Your question wasn't 'Why are there Asians that are good at math in my math class?" It was "Why are Asians good at math?". That's a general question, to which I gave a general response.

And to the question you meant to say but didn't - cultural pressure, as I also stated in my first post and then another person quoted my second and gave a super response also.

Super love to Kurofelis for my siggy!

That is so not true. You're really very dumb, aren't ya?
See the graph and scroll down to see the table, idiot!
If you see the list, Hong Kong has an average IQ of 107 and South Korea has 106. WHat did you say? That Japanese are the only amart Asian people in the world? Well, see the table, loser. Japanese have a lower IQ of 105. What's amazing is that South Korea and Hong Kong are smaller than Japan so the Total Sum of IQ divided by No. of People should be lower, but it's HIGHER.
What do you say to that, mother-fucking, god-damned sucker?

In the cleassroom they mess up the curve, in the roads, they hit the curve :D

but really, I think it's a stereotype that doesn't always hold true, specially if they are not first generation asians, if they are born and raised here, they are not that good at it, go figure

When someone says there are 10 trilliard of asian people in the world, it's hard to take them seriously.

The asians that get to go to school are pressured to do well at it, the others work in farms and factories and don't know jack about shit.

I actually read an article about this a while ago. Being asian, i'm no longer offended when people say things like this.

It's not actually the race itself, but rather the culture. The omega oils found in fish stimulates brain development in utero and in the early stages of infancy. Basically, if you eat a decent amount of fish your child will be smarter. The bad side of this is that if you eat too much, you'll get mercury poisoning and your child will end up being retarded.

The Asian diet often has some sort of seafood in it, whether it be fish, shrimp or anything else. This leads to improved brain development and overall gain in intelligence.

Maybe because they take the advantages that are taken for granted by the native born populations here (white, black etc.) You should take advantage of the opportunities given to you in this country and not moan and bitch about how you're 'disadvantaged' and live in 'poverty'.
