which ethinicity/culture, IN YOUR EXPERIENCE, have you found to be extremely intelligent???

i believe indians (and for those that would be misguided, i'm speaking of people from India, not native americans). i've known a good number through my Latin club and they are all VERY intelligent students. they won more academic awards than most of the schools that attended the state conventions combined...

In North America it tends to be Indians/Asians and (sub-Saharan) Africans that do the best academically.

There's no right way to measure intelligence. I'm sure that there are intelligent people in every nation. Difference is the education nowadays...

At my school the Koreans are the smart ones. The only ethnicity we really had were whites and Koreans (and hispanics too, but none of them were smart).

Pretty sure a Muslim is a member of a religious group not an ethnicity.
