Asians Succeed in School? No Surprise there.

http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-Pacific/2010/1209/Shanghai-test-scores-have-everyone-asking-How-did-students-do-it

After a recent worldwide test, results show that Asian students scored higher than most other countries in math, reading, and science. On average, Shanghai students scored about 50 or more points higher than the average. During recent years, Chinese students have become more focused on school work, their parents have started to care more, and colleges and universities have become available to them. Obviously, their efforts to do better have paid off because now the world knows what the kids in my math class have known all year, Asian students are SMART!
