Are people from the Indian subcontinent counted within the 75% Asian majority? This may be a silly question but I am not American, so I don't know how the grouping works.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoThey are - in general, Indian people will be counted as Asian in modern American statistics. (Historical statistics are much more muddled, in some cases even categorizing them as white.)
- darkhorse13 6y agoSo the majority situation could be easily explained using the positive stereotype of Indian and Asian kids taking their academics very seriously, partly due to the support (and pressure) they get from their families.
- aerioux 6y agoTJ Grad from '14. The school when i entered was mostly white kids + indians/east asians who spend a lot of time studying.
