Why are Indians so intelligent ?

They seem to do everything. Is it in their DNA ?

Parents push don’t coddle. Most middle American parents indulge their kids and dont emphasize education. And the whole sports obsession is a total distraction from education. So many parents are more focused on their kids sports than their homework and grades. America is so underachieving now.

They're not. They're just master bull shitters.

Oh, and also extremely racist and status obsessed.

I've worked with enough Indian "engineers" to know.

Cleanliness and manners certainly are not a part of their DNA.

When you have over a billion people in a populous, there are bound to be a few diamonds in the pile of carbon.

because they never think about sex?

Fewer opportunities exist in India so you are forced to apply what brains you have and be super competitive if you want to be middle class.

You only see the ones that made it out of India. They are for the most part the brightest and most ambitious. And they're immigrants so they push their children to do well, like most immigrant families. So the kids have educated, hardworking parents as examples in addition to those parents having high expectations of their children. So the kids tend to do well.

As far as the spelling bee that was almost 90% Indian kids, I honestly believe them being bilingual had something to do with why they were so over-represented.

I cant even remember the last time I saw an American kid being pushed by his parent to win a spelling bee. Its all about grades, checking the right boxes, getting Jaydin into the right school and a new smartphone of the season.

they learn by rote, which is not ideal for true innovation. they are not creative thinkers or innovators. they learn what is already out there. Think about it, when has India (or that matter any Asian country invented anything?) They take what the West designs/innovates and copies it and tries to make it better, usually a fail. Please, the very funny "Silicon Valley" takes a look at this culture.

They are def intelligent but not as intelligent as the south East Asian people like Chinese Vietnamese Korean or Japan

R14 nailed it. That is very true about America and innovation. We think outside the box and the the truly smart ones of that bunch come up with the best ideas without being squashed by society. Only problem is most are not that smart.

America comes in as the top 3 most creative country in the world.

All my medical professionals are Asian; a deliberate choice for many reasons -

I didn't think that they were, at least no more or less than anyone else. Is this supposed to be some earth-shattering revelation? From what one hears about India, aside from cows wandering anywhere they want to go, pissing and shitting along the way amid grinding human poverty, is that they are grossly overpopulated yet are doing nothing, as China has, to correct this horrible problem. So, what else is new about "Indians"? Not that I give a good goddamn, but, just trying to be polite.

There is only one proper way to make chai.

[quote]All my medical professionals are Asian; a deliberate choice for many reasons -

Actually that's not a good choice if you think about it. If you don't fit the text book case of whatever illness you have, they don't believe you. It doesn't compute. They don't think outside of the box. That was not encouraged in school. I have been to over 12 doctors over the course of my life and the best ones think outside the box.

I don't care if they don't believe me; I INSIST they 'Think outside the box"!

They don't innovate, they imitate.

R24 the fact that India lags behind in Innovation, like r14 and r16 said ,is because of the lack of funds and the support system in India. The government there is highly corrupt and you cannot set up a start up of your own without proper infrastructure.

Indians who came to the US innovated and created many start ups like Insta cart, AppDynamics, Zenefits, Aruba, Sprinklr , Zscalar etc. , All these are multi billion dollar startups.

They don't seem to mate with whites that much. Why s that?

[quote]Cleanliness and manners certainly are not a part of their DNA.

OP is being generous. As of 2014, approximately 50% of the country refused to use indoor toilets. That's over 600 million people. So UNICEF created a PR campaign to encourage them to do so:

Why didn't they want to use toilets? Did they think they were going to steal their souls?

r27 that's disgusting did they air that on TV?

I'm in IT, OP, and you made me laugh laugh laugh.

R3 is correct and never choose them as a psychiatrist. They don't get us. Go to American np for meds. That phrase about how a society treats their animals..a society that hasn't invented much and known for filth and bad genes. Racist as all hell. One guy dumped my lily white skinned ass when I told him I was part Inuit from Davis Inlet. Of course he was one of the darker ones. Worst doctors ever, to boot.

Now I have that poo song in my head.

R14 has been reading my post. No fear of Asians because they're not innovative.

Because they're much more open spiritually. Reincarnation is a way of life.

I thought it was the other Indians who were SO much more spiritual.

It's all about focus and determination, not IQ.

I’m with r30, I work in IT and the Indians are useless. They all have multiple degrees from places you never heard of and all claim to be experts but the work is appalling. Without constant correction and supervision they cannot operate.

"They're not. They're just master bull shitters.

Oh, and also extremely racist and status obsessed."

So, all Indians are Republican?

When I was in school, the Arabic students were the worst. They were always cheating and viewed a degree as a commodity they could buy. The Chinese and Jewish students were usually brilliant. The problem is finding a doctor, regardless of their background, that is not a pompous ass, and will listen to their patient.

I've found most Indian professionals are competent, but lack the social skills or bedside manner of their colleagues.

Clever. Not smart or creative. Not ethical so accomplished but incompetent at work.

R20 is right. Steer clear of Indian or Chinese doctors. They do it for status, not “to help people” or out of curiosity. Find a nice compassionate Jewish doctor instead!

I've got a great Indian endocrinologist, very warm and highly skilled. No complaints, other than I can't understand a few of her staff very well.

I work with two different development groups sited in India. One group is proactive, smart, and always a pleasure to work with. Really -- they can anticipate what we need and always keeps us informed of things. The other is arrogant, rude, and won't provide us with anything we ask for. We get the software and it is our problem if it doesn't work.

The responses here are the usual Datalounge parade of stereotypes.

I refuse to go to Indian doctors, but I will gladly let them serve me at Dunkin Donuts.

Who cares. Chinese will take over the world soon anyway. I better learn chinese language(s) now to secure a job in the next 10/20 years.

R45 those of us who have extensive experience of working with Indians have valid views on their work. If the vast majority of Indians I’ve worked with are undereducated, arrogant and perform very poorly at their tasks that is experience not stereotyping. In other words, grow the fuck up and understand that people have knowledge of things they have experience first hand and it’s not always sweetness and light.

Most of the gays are racists nasty anyway. Yes, intelligent people are everywhere and don’t forget there are many different types of intelligence. Smelly indians, cheap Jews, slanted eye cruel asians, trailer trash stupid aging quickly whites, we have heard it all.

We see the elite of the elite. Same with Jews except They killed off the dumber offspring.

I was staying in a small hotel in Earl Court in London one time and the place was filled with Indians, it reeked so bad of BO and curry that I actually had to change hotels.

ah, it's the Indian people are shit troll again. Nice to see you using your one hour of internet time in such a constructive manner.

Fuck your mother, Limey.

The Indians have built a nice team by intelligently signing young players to long-term contracts. They have assembled an excellent starting pitching staff. What they need is a couple better relief pitchers.

[quote] How are they in bed?

In my experience, mostly lousy. Too repressed I think.

They also have high rates of insanity and retardation due to inbreeding. They've continually married within the caste system for so long that it's almost spilt, offspring wise, whether the kids are high iq kids or crazed loon. At least over there; not sure about their American counterparts.

can someone tell me why do they smell so bad? is it some kind of oil they put on their bodies? why doesn't axe spray do a huge marketing campaign there? they would make so much money!

Smelly Indians vs white trash

They’re pretty nice people overall.

If they are so smart their country won’t be a shit hole

r64 the ironing s delicious.

Having ancestral heritage of surviving harsh winters creates innovative skills. It's environmental and genetic.

Chinese will take over the world soon. They are cruel and the most intelligent race

Most Indians I’ve known are arrogant cunts.

They have winter in India? I thought it was all gross and hot.

R69, part of the Himalayan Mountains is located in India, so of course there's snow there. However, the rest of India has a humid subtropical climate.

[QUOTE]So, all Indians are Republican?

Yep!

[quote]can someone tell me why do they smell so bad?

They don't bath or shower every day. That's not part of their culture. Its more like an occasional ritual to them. It's not any kind of genetic thing or anything they eat. But man, one time I was on a ride in Disneyland and a how family got on the open air ride in the same car, I almost died from the BO! It's not like they skipped a day or two, more like a week in the hot sun.

American born Indians on the other hand are totally normal, they don't smell, they shower every day like most Americans.

Here is a shower poll. While I was looking for how different country's bath I had a discovery. Apparently men bath much more often then women. Only 25% bath every day! FACT that is why Fish Stink! LOL

Clearly, you've never been to India.

It's the biggest shithole on the planet.

They cant be that smart.

What are some average Indian names lol or their versions of mike, Scott. Ashley and Madison? Is Kumar a common name?

Only the really intelligent ones make it overseas, thankfully.

Indian IT programmers are actually not that bad. They are actually very skilled programmers available here [ And no,I am not one of them]. But there is huge problem of nepotism , regionalism and tribalism which leads to lot of recruitment of completely incompetent guys in the IT department . If you think the IT guy working in onsite[USA] are bad then pray that you don't have to work with offshore "software developers "

Indians have to be bright. Every time I call for any kind of technical assistance, I get an Indian person to help me.

Those who immigrated from India tend to be professionals. They push their kids to succeed.

That happens with various immigrant cultures

The problems with India stem from the fact that it’s very hot so they have to deal with infectious disease; there are a billion people; and it was ruled by various entities that robbed it of its resources.

It has little to do with intelligence

It's a numbers game. Let's suppose that 10% of the population (current population of India is around 1 billion) are very clever that would make 100 million very bright individuals . Using the same supposition America would have only 30 million very bright individuals (based on a population of 300 million). Assuming OP is an American, the Indians he sees are the best and brightest and it only appears that all Indians are intelligent. I have lived in that part of the world and trust me, they are not.

I like having Indians as neighbors. I find a lot of white people are quite loud and don't understand an appropriate volume to carry on a conversation at or they don't understand how loud a TV or music should be. Also they tend to carry on in the streets quite a bit especially ones under thirty and at inappropriate hours. I never have this problem with my Indian neighbors.

r45, hate to say this but sometimes there is truth in stereotype.

Yes, r83, not to mention the wife-beating.
