I agree with the author's opinion about the problems that occurring with Asian American in the country. The author of the reading material have point out the existing issue that the Asian Americans are marginalizing. Even though the Asian American are so called model minority, however, they are facing much more problems that the name of the title.
In people's old impression, the Asian Americans are working usually hard, the some people think this is normal thing for the people. However, in fact, Asian American usually are facing many of the unequal issues, they have to work even harder to get the same result that other races would get.
The admission of college is a very problematic place that this issues often happens. The average score of Asian students are much higher but the acceptance are not high.
The Asian Americans are facing more pressure than the old days. Therefore, all the people should united instead of only defense their own interest. Because only after we get together to fight for our right, we would be able to succeed.

Question: Should we no longer use the term of Model Minority, if it got no beneficial for people?
