American embassy don't take IQ tests before they let you into their country.Just to add, the embassy screens for education and income(a proxy for IQ) before letting you in. |

4 Play:That there are more asians or people of asian descent in Ivy league institutions is due to several factors which include: 1. Asians are about 60% of the world population and thus even if picked at random, you would expect them to constitute more than half of the student body. 2. Government and private institutions (like samsung) from those regions provide strong financial support for their graduate students; directly through fellowships and scholarships, and indirectly by giving financial supports to professors with strong asian content in their research groups. 3. While sad, there is a racial under current in graduate admissions, with most professors having a bias in admitting one of their own. This has resulted in existing majority populations growing bigger, hereby dominating the PhD products and thus in turn by feedback increasing their presence at the faculty level. Essentially an avalanche effect. 4. The asian communities are making conscious efforts to increase the dominance, with most female asian students (particularly in science and engineering) heading into academia to further increase their presence at the faculty level. 5. My people perish for lack of knowledge. The asians provide communal support for prospective students and existing ones, which help them to sustain the required level of academic excellence. While blacks, already handicapped by being in the minority, do not work together nor share information well enough to help each other. The problem being that everyone feels they have enough troubles of their own and cannot afford the time or resources to help another (particular when there is no direct relationship involved). We suffer from the syndrome so aptly described in aeosops's fable of The Mice in council and their problem of 'who will bell the cat' |
Re: Preparing for GRE by 4Play(m): 1:03am On Feb 20, 2010 |
biina: Your premise is clearly false. Your presumption is that the proportion of applicants to Ivy League institutions who are Asians reflects the proportion of humans who are Asians. If we go by the same logic, at least 10% of Ivy League students should be Black Africans as Black Africans constitute at least 10% of the world's population. We can use this for every racial/religious/ethnic grouping on the planet. . Government and private institutions (like samsung) from those regions provide strong financial support for their graduate students; directly through fellowships and scholarships, and indirectly by giving financial supports to professors with strong asian content in their research groups. Enough financial support to explain Asian over-achievement? There is no evidence that Indians/Chinese students receive any more financial aid than others. A salient point is missed by you. Asian over-achievement applies just as well to Asian Americans and, here in the UK, British Asians. Fact is these people do not receive funding from Asians Govts or Asian companies but they significantly overachieve. How can you explain away over-achievement by Western nationals of Asian origin at even high school level to funding(which they don't receive) from Asian Govts/companies? 3. While sad, there is a racial under current in graduate admissions, with most professors having a bias in admitting one of their own. This has resulted in existing majority populations growing bigger, hereby dominating the PhD products and thus in turn by feedback increasing their presence at the faculty level. Essentially an avalanche effect. The Ivy League institutions started as white dominated centres. Surely, if it was a case of racism, Asians won't gain any such foothold in these institutions? By your logic, the whites would have kept out the Asians as whites, not Asians, are the majority population. 4. The asian communities are making conscious efforts to increase the dominance, with most female asian students (particularly in science and engineering) heading into academia to further increase their presence at the faculty level. That's an absurd point. Of course, intellectually gifted people will make conscious efforts to continue to dominate. My people perish for lack of knowledge. The asians provide communal support for prospective students and existing ones, which help them to sustain the required level of academic excellence. While blacks, already handicapped by being in the minority, do not work together nor share information well enough to help each other. Pretty much as your 4th point. Last time I checked, in the UK and the US, blacks outnumber Asians. British Asians and American Asians, both of who are outnumbered by blacks in their respective countries, far outperform blacks. Seriously, who is the minority? |
Re: Preparing for GRE by 4Play(m): 1:16am On Feb 20, 2010 |
GCSE performance These are stats for British Asians of Chinese/Indian origin. Many British Indians migrated from Kenya/Uganda. GCSE is a high school exam. Notice how they significantly outperform whites.

Re: Preparing for GRE by SEFAGO(m): 1:35am On Feb 20, 2010 |
From the GCSE stats, Girls consistently outperform men- so are women smarter than men? Or did you conveniently forget to consider a socioeconomic analysis of these statistics? Also from previous Jamb statistics and performances at the secondary and university level in Nigeria you are confidently say that the people in Southern Nigeria are smarter than a large majority of people in the North due to genetic or inherent intellectual differences . As absurd as that sounds, I am sure you would find sympathizers in the politics section of NL. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by SEFAGO(m): 1:59am On Feb 20, 2010 |
The average African immigrant does not represent his home community. Is the average Nigerian a graduate? This has nothing to do with IQ but opportunity. Living in Lagos, I have come across thousands of people who have dropped out of school for financial reasons. They would love to go to school and if given the opportunity would excel extremely well. You could say the same for India too though but less so for China. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by 4Play(m): 2:45am On Feb 20, 2010 |
SEFAGO: That's a silly comparison. IQ tests show no difference between the genders and the difference in GCSE performance, which I assume applies in US as well, is a function of girls maturing faster than boys. However, for the purpose of this thread, the results show an undeniable trend - Chinese and Indian kids outperforming whites and other races. Do you have any enlightening insight to explain this clear case of over-achievement? I'm all ears. Also from previous Jamb statistics and performances at the secondary and university level in Nigeria you are confidently say that the people in Southern Nigeria are smarter than a large majority of people in the North due to genetic or inherent intellectual differences . As absurd as that sounds, I am sure you would find sympathizers in the politics section of NL. Another stupid analogy. If the country had universal education, there will be no noteworthy difference between Southern and Northern educational achievements. In the UK, blacks and Asians have universal education. However, these Asians still outperform their black counterparts. This is far cry from Nigeria where disproportionate numbers of Northern Nigerians do not attend schools in the first place, rendering pointless any comparison by region of JAMB stats. This has nothing to do with IQ but opportunity. Living in Lagos, I have come across thousands of people who have dropped out of school for financial reasons. They would love to go to school and if given the opportunity would excel extremely well. You could say the same for India too though but less so for China. That's besides the point. The average Nigerian migrant is not representative of the average Nigerian back home. That there are bright people who lacked the opportunity to make much of their talents does not alter this relevant point. |

However, for the purpose of this thread, the results show an undeniable trend - Chinese and Indian kids outperforming whites and other races. Not really, I use classical logic to prove points which is quite hard to understand if you have never taken philosophy. But basically I was pointing out to the fact you presenting and interpreting GCSE statistics as evidence for Asian achievement is incorrect. Funny that you presented the data while unwilling to accept an interpretation. http://web.archive.org/web/20080130023006/http://www.president.harvard.edu/speeches/2005/nber.html Lawrence summers was fired for claiming gender differences in the severe lack of women professors in Engineering and Science. A recent study by the Wall Street Journal showed significant variance between the quantitative abilities of men and women. There is still significant debate on whether this is as a result of socialization and a gender-biased patriarchal system. I would point out to socioeconomic factors as well as self-perception as a result of low black achievement. The major reasons why African immigrants do well is that they have been socialized to do well. Moreover our educational system has significantly giving us an edge that we never notice which is way better than the poor public schools the majority of black kids go to in the US. Magnet high schools and schools in wealthy suburbs in the US are predominantly White and these schools have the best teachers and best guidance counselors. Asians when they move to the US, send their kids to this school and this gives them the same edge. There are so many factors sigh. So how do you explain the over representation of second generation Nigerians and other Africans in science and engineering compared to other black people (native blacks in the US or UK). That's besides the point. The average Nigerian migrant is not representative of the average Nigerian back home. That there are bright people who lacked the opportunity to make much of their talents does not alter this relevant point. LOL, I dont understand you man. You said is the average Nigerian a graduate and I pointed out that being a graduate in Nigeria and IQ levels are mutually exclusive. The average Nigerian migrant is not smarter than the average Nigerian at home. Just more driven to look for a better place to work at. Is there any evidence to show that an average African immigrant is more intellectually capable than his counterparts in Nigeria? Remember Nigeria is not like China and India where education is a priority in the Government. Like if a significant part of the Nigerian populace or the African populace is denied access to education, how do you expect to get good statistics on IQ levels and such. How can the son of a vulcanizer in west Africa do well in an IQ test compared to an Indian born in the slums of Mumbai but who has the opportunity to be exposed to the growing software industry around him and so is able to experience an environment that despite his poor surroundings give him the arsenal to succeed in IQ tests.
My analogy was based on your basic reading of the stats without any analysis. The UK might have Universal education but is the quality the same throughout? Not from what I have heard. I am sure schools with significant black population will be significantly less funded than those in white majority areas. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by 4Play(m): 3:56am On Feb 20, 2010 |
Not really, I use classical logic to prove points which is quite hard to understand if you have never taken philosophy. But basically I was pointing out to the fact you presenting and interpreting GCSE statistics as evidence for Asian achievement is incorrect. Funny that you presented the data while unwilling to accept an interpretation. More like classical illogic. Asian migrants are smarter and their educational performance serves as evidence of this. The alternative, evidence that their African counterparts are equally as smart, is sadly lacking on this thread apart from a lot of hot air. The GCSE results are not IQ tests but merely serve as evidence of my larger point. The difference between gender is highly understandable. IQ tests do not show difference in gender as the average man's IQ matches the average woman's IQ. The difference in certain aspects of mental ability, like the link you copied and pasted, does not prove much about gender IQ unless you want to make the absurd claim that quantitative ability is all there is to IQ. I would point out to socioeconomic factors as well as self-perception as a result of low black achievement. The major reasons why African immigrants do well is that they have been socialized to do well. Moreover our educational system has significantly giving us an edge that we never notice which is way better than the poor public schools the majority of black kids go to in the US. Magnet high schools and schools in wealthy suburbs in the US are predominantly White and these schools have the best teachers and best guidance counselors. Asians when they move to the US, send their kids to this school and this gives them the same edge. There are so many factors sigh. Any time I ask for something empirical, you cling on to your conjecture which, with all due respect, I have little regard for. I would love solid evidence of Africans matching Asian intellectual ability which, but for all your wonderful conjecture, would have blossomed. I guess we have to tell ourselves these stories to soothe our ego. African immigrants do well because they are often drawn from the most educated demographic of the African society in the first place. It's not the average Nigerian(non-graduate and barely literate) who gets handed a visa by the US embassy and migrates to the US. It's a pre-selected demographic who do not constitute a fair representation of the average Nigerian. Indeed, it's for that very reason that US will let them in in the first place. This is the answer to this: So how do you explain the over representation of second generation Nigerians and other Africans in science and engineering compared to other black people (native blacks in the US or UK). LOL, I dont understand you man. You said is the average Nigerian a graduate and I pointed out that being a graduate in Nigeria and IQ levels are mutually exclusive.

Is there any evidence to show that an average African immigrant is more intellectually capable than his counterparts in Nigeria?

My point is easy to understand. It's very hard to fathom how you can suggest that the intellectual ability of the average Nigerian migrant is the same as that of the average Nigerian back home. Same goes for migrants generally vis-a-vis their home community. You can hypothesise till eternity but the reality is that a well educated person will have greater intellectual ability than an illiterate. Back in India, many Indians are illiterate. Indian migrants, just like their Naija counterparts, are drawn from the highly educated demographic and are not representative of the average Indian. Where there is a difference is the relative performance of the average Indian migrant compared to the average Nigerian migrant. My analogy was based on your basic reading of the stats without any analysis. The UK might have Universal education but is the quality the same throughout? Not from what I have heard. I am sure schools with significant black population will be significantly less funded than those in white majority areas. Another voodoo social analysis. Are Chinese/Indians white people who got allocated houses in white majority neighbourhoods and got to go to white schools? These people started from the bottom like many Nigerian migrants by moving into deprived neighbourhoods before working their way up. Even if you want to explain away their better performance compared to us, you are still unable to explain why they resoundingly trounce whites in their own country. I'm sure in the states, Asian kids outperform white kids. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by biina: 7:14am On Feb 20, 2010 |
4 Play:It seems you failed to follow the logic. what you refer to as the presumption was the conclusion. the premise was that if students in Ivy league were selected at random from the general population. The topic was on their population and not their performance. If you want evidence you can go and ask at an Ivy league institution. For example, pick a professor that is endowed by an asian company and then look at the composition of the research group. Check with financial officers and look for distribution of external financial aid. External funding for Nigerians are usually limited to Petroleum and Geo-sciences. At no point did I say things have always been like this nor did I say that race is the only admission criterion. A sit in on an admission committee would provide the evidence that you need that professors of foreign birth often advocate for students from their region. That it is logical does not make it absurd. The point was that asian phd student are willing to take a lesser income to improve their collective position in academia and that this action has the desired effect. You can either dispute that they make the choice, or that it has the said effect, otherwise concede the point. Performance of current students go a long way towards evaluation of prospective ones. In a top program like MIT or Stanford etc, the support infrastructure goes a long way in settling down and doing well. A bad start in a graduate program can set you back so much that you never recover, and your poor performance will further limit the chance of prospective students from your region as the faculty would feel that you couldn't cope because your background and/or innate ability wasn't good enough. I am not familiar with the situation in the Uk and never made an example of it, and so do not see the relevance. Graduate admissions in top schools select from a broader international student body, and application statistics are closer to global (and not local) population distributions. Were/are you enrolled in an Ivy league program? cos it would be pointless to debate with someone who doesn't have a relevant perspective. Note: My reference to ivy league, is less of the old ivy league schools, but more a reference to top 5-10 programs in a field irrespective of school. Example, in engineering it would mean MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, UIUC, Caltech etc |
Re: Preparing for GRE by SEFAGO(m): 7:52am On Feb 20, 2010 |
^ LOL, then you should just use the word Top engineering school. Ivy league is important because its distinctive- it gives you a group of schools which train elite of America. Moreover the Ivy Leagues are notorious for being terrible in engineering- because to be sincere they were never really interested in developing their programs. However, with Ivies pouring a lot of money into their engineering programs, scared that they will lose their world rankings which are based on research, I can bet the top 25 schools in engineering would look different in 20 years. I rarely see the elites of society come from Berkeley, Uiuc or caltech. Moroever the ivy league is an undergraduate phenomena IMO. At the Undergraduate level, asians are way more represented in Berkeley, UIUC or Caltech than Ivies who try and balance their student body. I heard there are lots of nigerians at berkeley though- met these white berkeley kids at a party and they were singing a Dbanj song- Booty call, that there Nigerian friends taught them. However at the graduate level in science and engineering black people are nonexistent and the large majority are Nigerians- case in point we rock 4play. As for Caltech there is a total of 10 black people in their undergraduate program hehe when I was applying to college. It might have increased. I heard of this nigerian boy who got in, I wonder how the guy is doing though. As for me all this one na story. I am going back home to nigeria, broad even if it is Ghana |

Biina is 100% on point with this, and when I say 100% on point you cannot find a single counterexample. I would assume biina is speaking from an engineering perspective but its an all round phenomena. There are special financial aid programs specifically for Asians. While its hard for a Nigerian to get funding or bursaries to school in the UK there are a lot of bursaries established for international Asian students. At the graduate level, lots of grants are also available for asian students. They even get an edge in the market- two of the top largest sponsors of the H1-B visa to work in the US is Tata Consultancy and Satyam, both indian companies. So approximately 5000 indians are ensured work visas in the US, and you think the field is fair. iWho do they hire- fellow Indians . http://www.informationweek.com/news/global-cio/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=199601616&pgno=2&queryText=&isPrev= |
Re: Preparing for GRE by biina: 8:49am On Feb 20, 2010 |
No mind me jare. My abuse of Ivy seem to have stemmed from continuous discourse with Nigerians who assume stanford and MIT are ivy league schools. Also I always have issue with saying 'top schools' without specifying a number e.g top 5 schools. The true ivy league schools are Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Darthmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Upenn and Yale. I really dont like any of them (have a baseless feeling that they try to entrench a caste system ). I too doubt that Asians are as popular in these schools when compared with the caltechs and Berkeley. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by H2O2: 9:06am On Feb 20, 2010 |
Stanford by definition is not an ivy due in large part to region since the Ivy League was established as an athletic program anyway, but Stanford is just as prestigious and reputable as the ivy leagues as far as academics are concerned. Depending on the field of study, I would be under the impression that aside from the Harvard, Yale, Princeton . . . Stanford's more difficult to get into than the UPenn's or Dartmouths' |
Re: Preparing for GRE by H2O2: 9:10am On Feb 20, 2010 |
And of course as far as engineering is concerned you really cannot go wrong with the MITs , Caltech, Berkeley. |
Re: Preparing for GRE by SEFAGO(m): 10:04am On Feb 20, 2010 |
biina: yeah its not just you though. In the UK people always think Stanford is an Ivy. The problem with using the word top school is that rankings rarely come into play as much as perception. Trust me an engineering degree from Dartmouth would have a leg up in the most prestigious jobs than an engineering Georgia tech. So top school in my own opinion is relative. I do consider certain schools excellent and its a long list. However, I distinguish schools based on how hard it is to get into and the quality of their undergraduate students- graduate programs are difficult since quality varies depending on the program. Asians are actually popular in Ivies just not as much as Berkeley (Supossedly 40%+ Asian, despite attempts by white people to reduce asian numbers). Nigerians are equally represented as asians in ivies/mit/stanford relative to their population in the US. H2O2: Stanford blows the IVIES out of the water in science and technology. Infact it blows nearly every school in my own opinion except Berkeley. Infact if I had know this I would have worked hard while I was in secondary school in Nigeria so that i could reach it. IMO these are the three best Universities in the world for graduate studies in science and technology- Berkeley, MIT and Stanford. Infact, in the next 20 years, I predict major research institutions like UWisconsin-Madison, JHU, UIUC, UChicago, Cornell (supposedly the lowest Ivy after Brown) and the previously named schools would have the established position as the top graduate science and engineering schools. i dont really care about the social sciences, pele I wish I had known these and not attend a substandard University in the US . However Asians right from secondary school are preparing for the SAT and GRE, most of us poor people from public secondary schools dont even know where America was on the map. |

My friend's elder sister wants to study Pharmacy in Usa for PG and she needs a very good school and also how will she go about the GRE or GMAT? Which of them is compulsory? And also SAT n TOEFL Plus how much does dose exams cost? SHALOM |
Re: Preparing for GRE by arshy(m): 11:30am On Feb 25, 2010 |
suxes2005: but you should know that at-least half of the people here will be monitoring the events on the USA STUDENTS' VISA trend even if they are not actively participating in-terms of posting information, and we all know you a very active contributor to that trend and that means you are not naive to all these information you are asking. By inference, we know you got admission with CSUN and you must have passed through all these stages to get the admission. So why playing games with us here, what is been hypocritical for? Your questions is not even coherent, what relationship does GMAT-GRE has with SAT? abeg joo, don't play Turai - Yar'adua for us here. You are busted!!! |
