[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I graduated a  few years ago. My name is actually Italian but a lot of people think it is Hispanic.  I checked Hispanic on the application.  No one ever "investigated" me.   [/quote]

So you lied to get a perceived advantage because you weren't confident of your own record and ability to make a strong case for your fit to major?

So how were your JHU grades?

I hope you're not my doctor or personal wealth advisor or not even real at all (under-bridge-dweller).[/quote]

But you're ok with a personal wealth adviser who did need to play the card because otherwise they wouldn't have had a shot? What's the difference? It's not a perceived advantage if it works.[/quote]

My point is that if you are real and actually checked a box as a lie then you would be a thin-skinned, sleazy person who only looks out for himself.  I wouldn't trust you not to churn my portfolio or steal from me as an investment advisor.  And I would question whether you would overrecommend procedures and bill fairly as a doctor.  If you are real, I've met people like you and I don't want you handling my business.  I'll take it to someone ethical and trustworthy who outcompeted you without compromising.  Risk factors in even without emotions.  Liars are high-risk people to be around.  That's why society judges them harshly when exposed.  [/quote]
