This study disproves the "asian smart" myth, because the asians have been through a selection bias and does not represent the average of their population.
It is also likely that whites experience discrimination due to the current antiwhite culture.

Japan, Korea, and certain parts of China have the exact same standards. Nothing about this is disproven.

Yes, but I don't think it matters in terms of academic performance. Europeans have been enslaved before or had their cities bombed in World Wars. Did they become magically stupider as a result? No.

How's that?

Did you see what the relative improvements were? Blacks are still last.

Black students went from 58% to 66% (+8%), Whites improved +4% (82%-86%), Asians only 1% (84% to 85%).

Because whites have basically the same score despite asians having been through a hard selection bias

Oh okay, I see what you mean now.

The only thing I can think why the scores might be close is that they're aggregating too many different Asian groups together.

Possible too
