@Theoden, my daughter graduated from Brooklyn Tech in 2014. It was not a pressure cooker like Stuy. It had over 60 percent of students eligible for free/reduced price lunch (Stuy and Bronx Science were in the 40s) and a good portion of the Asian students were South Asian, mostly Bangladeshi, although there were many more Chinese kids. Due to the fact that many kids wind up at Brooklyn Tech because the main channel for admission (not SHSAT) is so screwed up with often random results, Brooklyn Tech has non-tech majors (every student selects a major starting in junior year and they are competitive by grade point average), including Law and Society, Social Science, Finance, and Media.
