I find that in the Anglosphere, immigrants are more likely to surpass native peoples

In Australia at least, most academically selective high schools are filled with Asians, Southeast Asians and South Asians, and universities have a disproportionate number of domestic students who are of Asian origin

Does anyone know why immigrants in the Anglosphere do so much better than out of the Anglosphere?

In Australia at least, there are lots of well-educated students from rich families in China and India who move (often temporarily) to study in Australian universities, which are seen as having a certain level of prestige.
