Answer 1

They just work hard. Go to the library on Friday night. I can guarantee you , only people you see there are Asians.

Answer 2

Intellect is testible though not clear or concise. Once again, intelligence tests only test portions of intelelct, aand though variably accurant in some aspects, is a shallow and non standard way of deciphering true intellect. There are SEVEN types of intellect, so how can a nere tests actually delve into the true mental capability? also intellect is influences but education, resources, economy, emotional trauma, sociological structure, and enviornment. take these into consideration. Plus, statistics are only some participants/ variables. They do not represent the exceedingly well participants, the exceptions, or the different. this is a standard test, a general device, and can even be manipulated.

Answer 3

The larger group of intelligent people isnt measured by race, rather by IQ scores. These tests do not measure intelligence, but they allow you to see which side of the bell you fall on in comparison to society. Therefore, the largest group of smartest people are geniuses, with some Asians included. Intelligence is defined as an ability to solve problems. The more creative you can become in this aspect, the better.

Answer 4

How do you define smart? The IQ folks have their definitons, but there are also MANY types of genius out there. Are you talking about the math-science-logic stuff?

There are multiple categories of genius in:

arts
athletics-body
music
intrapersonal
interpersonal
visual-spatial
logic-analysis-math

Sharp intellect is not the same as "intelligent or wise." I know lots of folks who can score high on IQ tests or can answer lots of questions of game shows, but they are NOT intelligent or wise when it comes to life-living, self realization, self actualization, God and Cosmic realization, elevated CONSCIOUSNESS, including what the highest meaning of life is! Factual knowledge that helps one play with matter easier is not true KNOWLEDGE.

Last I heard, one third of inmates in US prisons are said to have IQs over 135. Just because someone is smart or a smartass, does not make them intelligent or WISE! Some of the wisest on the planet may not have even ever been book-read or may not have gone to school. Some of the wisest may not even read. But they are AWAKE and can see-know what this earthly game is all about and what it is NOT about, ideally.

Answer 5

This is all speculation. At times, it may seem that way, however there are MANY super intelligent people of other races as well. Much of this has to do with the strict education discipline throughout Asian countries though... it's a very interesting topic.

Answer 6

There are many different to be intelligent. Some of the smartest people I know have never finished the 8th grade
Don't confuse intellect with knowledge

Answer 7

The smartest people have already left Earth ...

;^)

There are a few dumb Clarians who come to set up home here, though ...

Answer 8

no. tey are just one of the best in maths. but only because they are trained in that area since little a lot. they are obsessed with mathematical achievement, i guess. they are good though. dont think i want to take that from them. i give them their props.

Answer 9

Not inherently.

Their culture emphasizes intellectual development and awards intellectual ability better than ours does.

Answer 10

i think they are in general. most of the doctors i've seen are smart and asian, but they are usually friendly, caring and humble. i think they're real cool!
