<p>So ive heard that being an indian male puts you at a real disadvantage at the programs so i was wondering if your a pakistani male does that mean the same thing, does that make your chances just as tough or a little easier.</p>
<p>well ur still considered asian and im atually like from the brother courty bangladesh XD and i dont think it makes a difference.. i dont really know how a colege transcript lokks but i think u have 2 put asian or indian subcontinent</p>
<p>anyone else</p>
<p>thing is that this section of the forums is dying.. most posts are at college search and others</p>
<p>dude us paks get screwed cuz we're "rounded" as "indians"</p>
<p>lol well you used to be.</p>
<p>ya thatz a problem.. i think they consider every1 in those countries as indians... o0o well :=(</p>
<p>You guys were originally Indians (before the partition...). But, I think south asians are treated the same.</p>
<p>All I can say is if you're from Pakistan or wherever, don't come near New York, or the U.S. for that matter...it's not a smart time to. Not being racist or stereotypical, just being honest.</p>
<p>umm i think he's referring to ppl that live here......</p>
<p>and you are right...but it's just random</p>
<p>do'nt be ashamed of putting yoruself down as Indian. India zindabaad! haha before you flame me, im part paki so :P</p>
<p>Indian Pride Holla!</p>
<p>That's right brother!!!</p>
<p>yea!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>Being Pakistani doesn't change admissions for you...you're still a South Asian.</p>
<p>so bascially we are still ****ed,</p>
<p>yupp.. im actually bengali... tat sux.. hm wut if i put north american on the transcript heheh</p>
<p>Guys/Gals believe me, being an Indian is an asset and not a liability. More than 30 percent of the kids in the combined program are South Asians. That is a good representation based on the percent of the general population.</p>
<p>yo i think its more than 30 percent lol....I dunno the real numbers but every interview i went to 90 percent of the people were indian...</p>
