For reason that you provided a false info based on stereotypes. Further you gave me a list of website listing IQ of people by countries when all along we have been discussing about performance of various ethnic group in one country alone. This further shows you rely on quick googling and don't even comprehend the issue that you raised in the first place. This is a list of median household income in the United States by race and ethnicity and Native American tribal grouping (as of 2015). 1. Indian American : $107,390 2. Jewish American : $97,500 23. Japanese American : $70,261 31. Chinese American: $68,672 Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups_in_the_United_States_by_household_incomewww.forbes.com/sites/ronakdesai/2017/01/16/indian-americans-are-achieving-unprecedented-success-in-public-service/Does that show Orientals tend to be by a clear margin the best performing ethnic group in the USA? Keep in mind that I have given median figures which is not skewed by high incomes of a few wealthy people. Indian ethnicity people are significantly better in academics as well. 70% of Indian Americans aged 25 and older had college degrees in 2010, by far the highest rate among the six Asian-American groups studied and 2.5 times the rate among the overall U.S. population. The Chinese Americans and Japanese Americans figures were 51% and 46% respectively. www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/09/30/5-facts-about-indian-americans/I disproved your false beliefs because it was easy to do so because of objective figures. Do you believe you could be wrong when you make idiotic comments such as " White, and especially Oriental candidates are badly disadvantaged, because not being black, south Asian or Latino = "boring person who has nothing to offer" in admissions terms." You are not even living in USA. A few blacks might have got some advantage for being black but the fact of the matter is that they are highly disadvantaged group overall. You are just too quick to give your judgments and end up mocking a race that has been facing severe disadvantage for centuries. Of course this is something of a subjective opinion so you will persist with your unthoughtful opinions.

You are just too quick to give your judgments and end up mocking a race that has been facing severe disadvantage for centuries. Of course this is something of a subjective opinion so you will persist with your unthoughtful opinions. I wasn't claiming that the IQ table directly related to this issue. It was to demonstrate the fact that East Asians generally have the highest level of intelligence of all ethnic groups, and therefore the notion of high performing East Asians is not a baseless stereotype. I hadn't looked up the figures, but I had read previously of the difficulties being experienced by Asian-Americans due to Affirmative Action policies favouring blacks. And it was my impression that I tended to be reading about Oriental Asians and seeing photographs of Oriental Asians and their parents. Added to this 'Asian' usually refers to Orientals in American media, and therefore the confusion is understandable. I agree that blacks tend to be disadvantaged in the US; however Affirmative Action programs which focus exclusively on race are unjust. If levels of economic disadvantage are disproportionately high amongst blacks, then Affirmative Action should be based on economic factors. That way, black people will still disproportionately benefit from these measures, but whites and Asians from poor families will not be left behind. The same thing goes as far as scholarships are concerned, which heavily benefit ethnic minorities, but leave bright young white people from poor families unable to pursue higher education.
