澳洲亚裔律师在美国:这里的数据有点意思:

在澳大利亚大学教育




耶鲁法学院在2017年曾做过一个法律界亚裔人士(总共六百多名,仅限已经从法学院毕业的人)的调查。下面是个摘要:

57% women and 43% men;
11% under age 30, 41% ages 30–39, 30% ages 40–49, 12% ages 50–59, and 7% ages 60 and above;
66% born in the United States and 34% born abroad;
35% Chinese, 22% Korean, 11% Filipino, 11% Japanese, 10% Taiwanese, 8.3% Vietnamese, 7.8% Indian, and 6.5% other ethnicities;
26% with neither parent having a bachelor’s degree, 21% with both parents having graduate degrees, and 5.5% with at least one parent having a law degree;
61% Democrat, 9% Republican, 12% Independent, and 12% with no political party registration;
and 46% in law firm or solo practice, 25% in government, 20% corporate counsel, and 6% in nonprofit organizations or academia
Since 2009, Asian American first-year enrollment has fallen by 43%—the largest decline of any racial or ethnic group. The number of Asian Americans who entered law school in 2016 was the lowest in more than 20 years.
After law school, Asian Americans are more likely than other racial or ethnic groups to work in law firms or business settings, and they are least likely to work in government. Few Asian Americans report that gaining a pathway into government or politics was a primary reason they attended law school.
Although Asian Americans comprised 10.3% of graduates of top-30 law schools in 2015, they comprised only 6.5% of all federal judicial law clerks.
For nearly two decades, Asian Americans have been the largest minority group in major law firms. But they have the highest attrition rates and the lowest ratio of partners to associates among all groups.
Although a significant number of Asian Americans serve as line prosecutors and government attorneys in some agencies and jurisdictions, their numbers dwindle at the supervisory level. In 2016, there were only 3 Asian Americans serving as United tates Attorneys, and in 2014, there were only 4 Asian Americans serving as elected district attorneys nationwide.
Despite recent progress, only 25 Asian Americans serve as active Article III judges, comprising 3% of the federal judiciary. Asian Americans comprise 2% of state judges. Many Asian American attorneys report experiencing inadequate access to mentors and contacts as a primary barrier to career advancement.
Many Asian American attorneys report implicit bias and stereotyped perceptions as obstacles to promotion and advancement. Among Asian American attorneys, women are more likely than men to report experiencing discrimination on the basis of race. Asian American attorneys may experience mental health challenges at a higher rate than the legal profession as a whole.

亚裔干law之类的工作不容易。相对来讲医生就容易很多,技术活。
26%的亚裔律师父母都没有本科学历,典型的知识改变命运哈

我这么多年认识的人里面,就去年一个学法的,其他高分孩子都学医。

读law出来社会地位可能会很高,上限比医生高不少(即使从收入上看也是)
当然我主要说的是白人。。。

其实不少了。如果把Chinese and Taiwanese 加起来,占了45%, 差不多一半了。

美国亚裔律师里有61%是民主党支持者。这很左啊
