The test makers have made allowances so that is not a factor. And the

Gee, you must be referring to...
1) ...those Asians that had a great (not third rate) education like
most blacks receive.
2) ...those Asians that work -hard- on their homework instead of
wasting their time with mindless TV and Nintendo like native-born
whites.
Your "results" prove NOTHING; you just don't seem to want to admit
that a third rate education can have a drastic negative effect on IQ
(or any other) tests.
Finally, you have dodged explaining how someone with poor READING
skills (from a third-rate education) can be expected to do well on a
WRITTEN test -- that they have to READ. Duh!

Personal attacks ignored.
When testers correct for all those factors -- and they've been doing
that for half a century or more -- there is still a very large
difference in average IQs between the races. It's real -- as anyone with
common sense and experience can tell you.
It is, however, a very real liability to assert this point. Shockley
would have explained, with some authority.
Being a hot button issue, race can cloud any discussion where it may
have even an oblique contact.
And once race has entered the discussion, all rational exchange stops.
Which is--and has been for time, now--the goal. As it is here.
