That stereotype is not true in the least. In some cases, an Asian may be more intelligent or talented, but it is the state of mind that counts. Due to tradition and pressure to do well, most parents are very attentive about their attitude and education, but this is not completely true, either. Some care as much as the average parent, while others can and will care more (or less). Higher standards in Asia have also encouraged this stereotype, but be aware that his is NOT TRUE.

A little bit of racism comes in here, too. If one looks at a precocious Japanese person (just choosing a random Asian nationality) and can only see that this person is Asian and smart, (more emphasis on noticing that this person is Asian) chances are that when they see another Asian, that is the way the will think. And it spreads.

In areas like New England, where the Asian population is scarce, that is the only thing that they will see in an Asian. In some towns, they have heard about Chinese and Koreans doing very well, and they apply that to the Asians that they see. In areas like LA, the Asian population is overwhelming, and they are treated and thought of like an ordinary person.

Are Asians smarter than non-Asians?

These stereotypical statements such as "Asians are smarter" are judgmental and unprovable. Some Asians are smarter that some other people, but others are not so smart. Everyone is different.There is no significant evidence that this statement is true or untrue.Also it is very difficult to define or measure "smartness" and attributes such as this may depend on Nature (genetic makeup) or Nurture (upbringing and education).Asian culture has a strong emphasis on education. To have a successful career, business, or position of high rank or hold some high status is emphasized very strongly in Asian families. Asian families are also more strict and traditional in their upbringing of their children. Their families are very structured. The whole culture pretty much emphasizes self improvement and bettering ones' status and that of their families.

It depends on how hard they study, and their grades. In general, people just say that normal asians are smart, not concercing where they are from. Some Indian people may be smarter than the Japenese and Chinese, and some may not. It all depends on the person whom you are referring to.
