    The comment will influence Cho in this form:

    Surely Cho Wong will do great in the math test, reaffirming the stereotype towards people of Chinese origin.

    Explanation:

    The stereotype promise theory of al ph. D. Jennifer Lee mentions that when someone is seen through a positive stereotype (in this case Chinese students), this thought makes the person strive to confirm that stereotype, I mean, it may be that Cho Wong was not enough prepared to present the math test, but once his teacher said those words, Cho decided to focus on reaching those expectations regarding Chinese students, which is why the teacher's comment acted positively on the student, although has been based on assumptions by his race.
