does race have anything to do with intelligence?

You may be an exceptional individual. Congratulations. But if you're easily getting a 3.0, then why don't you try, and get a better gpa?

Ancestral environment does have a lot to do with the evolution of people. West Africans (those whose ancestors evolved in West Africa) have the fastest reflexes & tend to be great sprinters, while East & North Africans are poor sprinters, but great distance runners. Europeans tend to fall somewhere in between East/North Africans in distance running & West Africans in sprinting. Africans in general are better runners than non Africans.

Asians tend to score higher on IQ tests than Europeans (with the exception of the Ashkenazim Jews) or Africans, while Europeans tend to score higher than Africans. However, we can't measure the ambition & perseverance that leads to success. Those that put forth the most effort are more likely to be successful than those with a higher IQ that don't try as hard.

That means that you are above average.

Cultural traditions and the way the child is brought up have a major effect on the child's development. Also, some races might potentially be better than others due to them having a "better" set of genes.

However, very little research is being done in this field due to it being considered "racist".

The color of your skin has nothing to do with your IQ. How-ever other things can effect your IQ such as your environment. America is known for its racism and i'm sure a racist environment does effect your ability to perform and learn....

@Ed, common misunderstanding. Asians don't score higher due to being smarter. They only score higher because the only students tested are the intelligent students. In places like China they split up students(segregate them) and the only ones who take such exams are the ones who are in the "intelligent" group/school.

IQ is not a direct measure of education, it is a measure of your learning ability, so the GPA argument is specious; however, race has no effect on IQ. Trends that are used to demonstrate otherwise can easily be explained by social factors.

Nope... Not at all. I'm black, and I have a 4.0 GPA in college, the fastest start time in track. BUT... Asians are going to take over the world... They are GENIUSES! But that's because their parents train them to be able to do everything when they're young. But they aren't much in the athletic dept. Except for tennis.
