Offhand, I don't see how an IQ difference between Asians and other races easily accounts for this.
I tend to think effort doesn't account for it, either, given how much supplemental work Asian immigrant families seem to give their kids.
The one clear difference between immigrant Asian students who arrived in this country as little kids versus immigrant Asian students who arrived in this country as teens is that immigrant teens learned math using Asian math curricula.
