East Asian culture (at least in Japan and the ROK) compels kids to study 10-12 hours a day,6 days a week and compels adults (at least men,don't know about women) to work 10-12 hours a day,6 days a week. It shouldn't be a surprise that they're smarter than we are.

They also don’t take 3 months off per year from school, an obsolete legacy of America’s agricultural past.

The East Asians work the stuffing out of their people. But that does not always have the intended effect. If you think you are getting the same quality “work” out of someone working 8AM-8PM (+ commute), you are wrong. Also, there is the forced socialization (e.g., Karaoke & drinking after work). Some like it, some can’t stand it. When people get home they are absolutely exhausted and then they have to do it all over again — up to 6 days a week. It is no wonder their birth rate is so low.

I know more than a few East Asians who fled to the US for their sanity. One was a fiber-optic engineer who happily took a job as a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant. Really.

This states that they test better, and not that they're smarter. "Studying to the test" gets a better result but not a better thought process.

All this school learning makes them more indoctrinated.
