Asians have been performing well in academics since they began arriving to America (1940s?) because Asians prioritize academics and their parents push them excessively to excel in academics so they spend more time on academics than most other cultures, thus, they earn better grades. The downside is, as above poster mentioned, that they don’t get to socialize much. The more assimilated parents (even if immigrants) realize that their children need good social skills for success as well as some socializing for mental happiness.
