I had drawn attention earlier to the extraordinary and outstanding performance of Indian American children in three prestigious contests open to all school children in the United States: the National Geographic Bee, Intel Science Talent Search and Scripps National Spelling Bee. The winners in each of them are awarded very handsome scholarships besides other items. That report covered up to 2014. Here, the performance of the Indian American school children in these three contests in the next two years (2015 and 2016) is presented.

Abstract


I had drawn attention earlier to the extraordinary and outstanding performance of Indian American children in three prestigious contests open to all school children in the United States: the National Geographic Bee, Intel Science Talent Search and Scripps National Spelling Bee. The winners in each of them are awarded very handsome scholarships besides other items. That report covered up to 2014. Here, the performance of the Indian American school children in these three contests in the next two years (2015 and 2016) is presented.
