Mostly because of who immigrates to the US. Those Asian and Russian kids you mention probably have software engineers as parents. The Hispanic kids probably do not.
If we got the poorest and least educated immigrants from the same places, we'd be seeing rather different results.
- TheMagicHorsey 3y agoThat wouldn't change the end result though ... which is that for kids in America, we aren't going to get everyone at the same level of performance as Asian kids by money alone.
- nitwit005 3y agoSure, but that doesn't mean you can't do anything either. The inability to achieve a perfect result doesn't matter.
