[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does URM include anyone who is not a white male? Is a young black teen considered an URM for college admission purposes?[/quote] URM = black, Hispanic, Native American ORM - white, Asian[/quote] Can someone provide an estimate of how much % it increases the chance of acceptance, being an URM (black teen male)? Do certain tiers of school (or regions if the country) give URM more weight (ie boost) than others?[/quote]But I don't think there's a data point on this. But as someone who once temped at my elite college's law school registrar's office, the advantage of being black is absolutely gigantically enormous. LSAT scores weren't even in the same stratosphere. Not remotely close. Being black and vaguely ambitious is a golden ticket in academia. Particularly selective private schools.[/quote]
