It is totally depend on each kid's gift, preference and where he/she focuses on. There are plenty of white kids excel in math and science,and plenty of Asian kids excel at debate/speech/presentation. In my daughter's high school, 2 years in a row, the school president/vice president/secretory are all Asian kids. This year in particular, all three are girls, one Indian, one Chinese and one Malaysian. This year, there are quite a few students, Asian and White, admitted by Harvard/MIT/Stanford.
