If I'm not mistaken, isn't the average ashkenazi jewish IQ 115, i.e. almost 1 standard deviation above the chinese? If so, that would explain a lot, wouldn't it?
One standard deviation is 15 points. The Chinese are here labeled at 108.
It is also questionable about their IQ being what is claimed.
Regardless, if their IQ is 115, the bell curve of Chinese alone would equate to more above their IQ due to population. Similar to this, but our net is crap tonight due to storm so I'm having a hard time navigating. I can't find info for a Chinese curve with population.

But the vast majority of applications come from the USA. Naturally, a US university prefers US students by and large. I would imagine the Jewish population in the US is roughly in the same ballpark as Chinese.
