They are not entirely self-selected. They are also selected by Americans. Not all visa requests are accepted. If education is not a criterion then America would not mind if you were replaced by a randomly chosen Indian.subodh wrote:abhiskek - that is a bit circular. the Indians who came here as immigrants are a self selected group - those are the ones that chose to come here
Right. As I mentioned in a different thread, it just means that the value of your education is greater than other factors like race. As far as ordinary Indians are concerned, they don't have enough education/skills to protect them from other "factors".a real racist shouldnt care, your skin colour should triumph all.
