[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your HS record shows Hispanic, there's nothing wrong with doing so. If HW record shows white, it will raise a lot of qs from Adcom folks. [/quote] This. Go to your HS counselor and change your ethnicity there first. My kid was always id as white, changed in 10th grade, then used it on college application. The school asked for the birth certificate, which we had issued from the Spanish country (the kid was born there, but both parents are non-hispanic). College board never asked any questions. This is how this system works. It does gives more benefits to one race/ethnicity than another. Since the system is not fare, I don't expect anyone to play a fare game. [/quote]
