Are you a minority?

<p>At your school or community? </p>

<p>I'm now a senior at about a 5% white/95% black school. At times it's weird because there's that culture barrier. I really do like my school, but I can't help but think I would have more friends if I went to a "white school". </p>

<p>Any other "minorities" out there?</p>

<p>I wanna be a minority!
I don't need your authority!
Down with the moral majority,
'cause I wanna be the minority!</p>

<p>I'm Asian. Which I guess makes me a minority everywhere except in college admissions. (And probably the college I'm going to.)</p>

<p>I'm Jewish. But there are tons of Jews at my school, so, not really.</p>

<p>I'm Jewish. There are more Asians than Jews, though. More Jews than black people, I believe.</p>

<p>I'm queer. Does that count?</p>

<p>I'm the only asian female for at least the junior and senior class. Perhaps in my whole school. I haven't seen any other asian females around. My brother is the only asian male i've seen around too.</p>

<p>Woohoo!</p>

<p>asian at a primarily white school. by this i mean i'm 1 of 5 asain kids in my grade of about 230ish white kids. no black kids in my grade either</p>

<p>I'm a Iranian Jew, so I get double minority points :)</p>

<p>^^right on</p>

<p>I'm the only Persian in my school. It sucks...80% black, 15% hispanic, 5% white.</p>

<p>jewish is not an ethnicity</p>

<p>No .</p>

<p>I'm a minority in theory, but not in practice.</p>

<p>chamilitary- The OP didn't specify what kind of minority, and Jews are definetely a religious minority in America, so, yeah.</p>

<p>lol. yes.</p>

<p>i believe i'm the only asian female in my grade. my school is predominantly white (98%).</p>

<p>My school is like 20% black/80% white. So yeah I'm a minority...</p>

<p>school is about 85% white 8% black 7% hispanic and asian</p>

<p>im half white, half hispanic</p>

<p>Minority to most of the world...</p>

<p>...going to a school that's 88% black -- nope
but for some reason I feel like some sort of minority there regardless</p>

<p>My school is: 67% black, 21% hispanic, 6% white, 6% asian. </p>

<p>Im hispanic, but I hate thinking about it because I think we are all Americans and labeling is stupid. Anyway, I think I would have more friends if I went to a white school. But I love to hang out with everybody.</p>

<p>yeah i'm hispanic. there's prolly about 10% hispanics at my shcool. and alot of blacks and whites. we're pretty racially diverse. but, i might as well be white. everyone thinks i am anyway.</p>

<p>technically no.. I'm a white female that goes to a mostly white (slightly more girls than guys) school..
However.. I go to school in a very small uncultured town in Indiana now..
I've lived in 3 other states and travelled to most others. So I feel a lot more "experienced" and "cultured" so there is definitely a barrier between a lot of us. A lot of these people have never left the group of surrounding counties, and probably half haven't gotten out of the midwest. </p>

<p>I don't consider myself a minority because of that, but I do think it would be easier for people to relate to me if I went to a less rural school..</p>

<p>I also wanted to add that not all people who haven't travelled or are in rural towns are like this.. Just the majority of them at my school.. I didn't want to offend people or anything.. A lot of these people I love to death so.. It's just something I've noticed</p>

<p>Yes, <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=396200%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=396200&lt;/a> ;)</p>

<p>I'm hispanic and my school is about 50% Hispanic. However the percentage of Hispanics applying to college is about 10% of that 50%</p>
