Well, privileged white people can slack on test preparation and still do well in life, while asians have to work their asses of to have a good career
-
Same argument would apply to other minorities that don’t beat the whites in testing.

White people in power choose standardized testing because it marginally discriminates against non-white races. They didn't do it And Then Find Out that it was discriminatory. They expected other races to do worse and they were right and educational access is still unequal.

White culture of privileged complacency + unfairly high standards for racial minorities strikes me as a plausible identarian framing. As for why Asians in particular, the claim would be that they did not come to America through subjugation, and were thus seen as competitors

The argument is that Asian people are from a rote memorization culture that teaches directly to the test from a young age, sacrificing joy and creativity and “well-roundedness”

sure: there's cultural differences in how seriously you take tests, asians happen to take them more seriously than whites, whites more seriously than some other races and culture is somewhat heritable basically this:https://hotelconcierge.tumblr.com/post/113360634364/the-stanford-marshmallow-experiment …
