<p>I’m an MCB major and it is not 80-90% Asian, more around 50-60%. And even if it was, who cares? They are in those classes and tend to do well because they work hard not because there’s some sort of “genius Asian gene”. How about if non-Asian parents told their kids to study well in order to become doctors (which I’m sure is what many Asian parents say anyways) instead of telling them to forget it?
Also, I might add that the hard work of many non-caucasian science students is because many of their parents are immigrants and know the value of hard work (this is not to say other parents don’t) and raised them with that mentality (I know mine did).</p>
