Many asians when it comes to education is about practice, practice and practice until you nail it down. Its more about discipline. Are asians smarter? No, absolutely not but they are very well disciplined on the average. Because of this discipline, they tend to perform well in school. But due to this robotic nature, the chances are, originality may be somewhat lacking. You will find asian improving on a item but you are not going to find too many asians that has invented the wheel in the modern day.

I find it sickening and that they are raising kids who are quite often totally unbalanced and lack good social skills or kindness for others and are focused on financial success and status primarily and not on bettering the human race. Of course, this is a generalization but I am very sorry I feel it is true and due to the cultural differences I see in Asian families who are in the Ivy and MIT track versus those who are not. My family was focused on, yes, doing well in their careers but also have had a far greater concern for the betterment of society as a whole and not simply their own selfish interests. Call this prejudice but I think it is not. I think it is an indictment of the Asians I have seen in many areas of professional work: Not looking towards the betterment of others but only themselves and their families. The arrogance and self centeredness can be unbelievable and very disturbing indeed. Tell me I am wrong and why. I don't think I am: It is what I have sadly observed. (And, worse yet, they often have no idea what I am talking about! Not a clue.)

You both are right on.
I've seen it happening, on my industry (IT) and wifey's too (Auditing). It's a very interesting social phenomenon. I commend Asian people for being so disciplined, focused, and goal oriented. But there needs to be a balance between excelling in school and being a caring, socially adept member of society.

好像对亚裔学生的攻击常常可以看到 “unbalanced and lack good social skills”的说法.

什么叫balanced? 德智体美劳没有social skills

毛爷爷当年是这样觉得的

惜秦皇汉武，略输文采；
唐宗宋祖，稍逊风骚。
一代天骄，成吉思汗，只识弯弓射大雕。

他老人家自认风流，但也不是balanced, 据说数理化一塌糊涂
