What are Asian parents doing to start their kids on the road to academic excellence at an early age? What can all parents do to help their children ace tests, strive to achieve, and reach educational goals?

hundred dollars in their pockets-reveal the practices that lead Asian-Americans to academic, professional, and personal success.
